Tom Stanks, a Doctor of Theology, garners a treasury of insights from the world’s literature. He begins with play with his father and continues to sift selections as he travels his spiritual journey. Throughout he regularly comments on the quote or group of quotes.
In one chapter you find Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s comment when our country was in deep depression: “Without the help of thousands of others, anyone of us would die naked and starved.” In another chapter, you hear the Sufi Master, Kabir, “Behold but One in all things; it is the second that leads you astray.” In yet another chapter, you smile with Abraham Lincoln’s lighter side, “No matter how much cats fight, there always seem to be plenty of kittens.” MY STORY: Ramblings on a Spiritual Journey explores what captivates the author and reader, demonstrating the greatness of the "I." It recounts a journey in and out of formal religion, sharing personal experiences and those of meditation masters. The narrative climaxes in revealing some higher consciousness experiences particularly the immediate awareness of oneness. Knowing that loving can be risky, the author faces his own challenge and offers it to the reader: "Do I trust love enough to carry me the distance?" |
