I have tried to keep the extracts from the commentaries as meaningful as possible, but each book is an organic whole with themes and meanings that go far beyond the extracts given here. If you feel you have benefited from the extracts, you can gain much more by buying and reading the books. You also support the authors, who have generously granted permission for their material to be used. All the authors are remarkable people and spiritual teachers who wrote and created many other works that are also listed here.

To look through the catalog, click on the name of one of the authors (or 'Other Books') in the column to the left. You'll see a list of books and/or tapes by that author, starting with the one extracted in the main site. All the authors are remarkable people and spiritual teachers who wrote and created many other works that are also listed.
