Product Description

Since the publication of his stunning worldwide bestseller Conversations with God (over two and a half years on the New York Times list; now published in 37 languages), Walsch has been telling readers that a new understanding of God can change lives and change the world. Now, in this new book, he expands on that theme by exploring how ordinary people can work in direct collaboration with God to transform their everyday lives into extraordinary experiences.

This is not a book of spiritual theory. It provides a plan that can change lives. Included here is a program that Walsch calls ''17 Steps to being Happier Than God,'' a plan that combines the best of the conceptual truths of his 9-book Conversations with God series with the clearest description yet of how to turn those concepts into practical tools for altering life for the better--forever.

From Publishers Weekly
A self-described "modern day spiritual messenger," Walsch is known for his Conversations with God books, national bestsellers translated into more than 30 languages. This new offering recaps some of that content, but chiefly expounds upon the "law of attraction" school of thought, brought to market most notably by Rhonda Byrne's The Secret. Walsch carves big real estate, asserting that "this book offers a complete explanation of How Life Works." At once altruistic and self-serving, his framework is a multi-step "Process of Personal Creation": he claims to augment the energy of attraction with the law of opposites, the gift of wisdom, the joy of wonder and the presence of cycles. What Walsch asserts to be a revelation-that the Divine exists in all, thus all is a manifestation of the Divine-is really an age-old tenet of Hinduism. His well-intentioned content, though hard for many mainline believers to swallow, is nonetheless flavored with Christian sensibilities, e.g. "The kingdom of God is within you." No doubt, however, his arguments will find great success with the Conversation and Secret crowds who can find sustenance here in short chapters and 17 steps to happiness, including the notion that readers should give others every experience they seek themselves; understand sadness; and smile.

Happier Than God
This is one of the best spiritual books I've ever read! A must read for Neal Donald Walsh fans!

Law of Attraction in 5 Easy Steps
A very practical guide (at least for me) to the "Law of Attraction".

From pages 54 and 55:

"Life Expresses itself through:

- 1. The Energy of Attraction, which gives you power.

- 2. The Law of Opposites, which gives you opportunity.

- 3. The Gift of Wisdom, which gives you discernment.

- 4. The Joy of Wonder, which gives you imagination.

- 5. The Presence of Cycles, which gives you eternity.

Life, I have come to understand, is God. It is God being God, and becoming what God is next going to Be. This is a complex and extraordinary system that includes a P r o c e s s that produces an E x p r e s s i o n called L i f e."

One of the best teachings for creating your life and happiness
Culmination of Neale Donald Walsh's extraordinary teachings. Integrates The Law of Attraction, Intentional Creation and Spriritual Insight. One of my favorite books for morning contemplations. Great book to re-read when life seems stressful; it reminds me of tools I can use in the moment for greater happiness and peace.
