The Beggar: Meditations and Prayers on the Supreme Lord

Deeply penetrating reflections & personal dialogue with God remind the reader of the necessity to dedicate time to spiritual growth along with secular pursuits. In an easily readable, non-sectarian format & in everday English, such topics as patience, tolerance, & humility, compassion, & determination are explored, not as quaint musings from another age, but as necessary tools in maintaining sanity in a far from normal world full of conflict & stress. The style of writing balances an awareness of the difficulties sometimes associated with this subject matter with a fresh & stimulating perspective that encourages the reader to take responsibility for his/her life. Thus making this a valuable addition to rehabilitation programmers that focus on internal development & reestablishing awareness of the real purpose of life. The spiritually curious will find this worthy of their companionship. Interspaced with black & white photos showing mostly scenes from nature & sacred sculptures, an internal exploration is initiated that all ages & backgrounds can benefit from. Written over a period of ten years, this is an important addition to poetry & prose collections as well as seminary & theological literature. Praised by the philosophical community, THE BEGGAR is revitalizing the important but sorely neglected art of self-introspection. THE BEGGAR can be ordered directly from HARI-NAMA PRESS, P.O.
