Five Free Spiritual and Meditation Ebooks

Being on a spiritual path often means expanding your knowledge.  Here are some books that will cost you nothing to try. So why not broaden your horizons with these e-books on Amazon?

1. The Heart of Abundance: A Simple Guide to Appreciating and Enjoying Life by Candy Paull – This book is a free “best of” collection. Discover more abundance, encouragement, and simplicity in your life. Quotes, meditations, prayers, and instant inspiration help you create a life you enjoy and enjoy the life you have.

2. Buddha in Blue Jeans: An Extremely Short Zen Guide to Sitting Quietly and Being Buddha by Tai Sheridan – Poet and Zen Priest Tai Sheridan’s ‘Buddha in Blue Jeans’ is an extremely short, simple, and straight forward universal guide to the practice of sitting quietly and being yourself, which is the same as being Buddha. Sitting quietly can teach many ways to accept life, meet pain, age gracefully, and die without regret. The book encourages sitting quietly every day.

3. Butterflies Are Free to Fly: A New and Radical Approach to Spiritual Evolution by Stephen Davis – Given that the physical universe which looks and feels so real to us is actually a unique holographic projection from our own brain, the author examines various models for life and living that are very different than what we have been told and taught.

4. Gifts With No Giver: A Love Affair With Truth by Nirmala – This is collection of non-dual spiritual poetry written from the Heart by Nirmala, who is a spiritual
teacher in the Advaita tradition. These poems attempt to capture the
undying presence of love in all of its forms. Let your soul be deeply
touched by the Rumi-like words of a lover drunk with passion for the
Truth.

5. His Holiness the Dalai Lama: A Message of Spiritual Wisdom by Comcast NBC Universal – This book explains how the religious leader was first chosen in 1937 and provides an overview of his political and cultural history. It also celebrates the way he brings communities together through a message of peace and nonviolence. Included are excerpts from the Dalai Lama’s address to attendees of the Kurukulla Center, discussion questions, a glossary of terms, and select resources.

The Thought for Today and Every Day

We are much more than what we think we are. We are very deep entities, each and every one of us.

The Thought for Today and Every Day

“There’s really no reason for us to grieve our loved ones when they physically pass. When we physically die we live on in spirit.Life is eternal.” Dr. John Muciaccia

Dr. John Muciaccia Interviewed on Dial In Channel Up

MPS_7358Dr. John Muciaccia had a wonderful interview about his book Spirit Lives! with Lisa Salaz on the Dial In Channel Up Show.

“I know he will be a dear friend each day forward,” said Salaz as she introduced Dr. John.

When she asked him about Spirit Lives! and the origin of that title, he replied, “We’re talking about such a dynamic entity it needs an exclamation point.”

“I want to give the reader knowledge and hope,” he continued. “knowledge that there is this vast, vivid, very alive part of the universe called spirit and hope in the sense that we’ve all lost someone that we miss terribly – hope that this person is still alive in a different consciousness, the consciousness we call it now is spirit or soul.”

Dr. John also shared one of his earliest memories of the affect of spirit on his life. Before his family moved into his house in Hoboken, his maternal grandfather, Giuseppe Galioto, was asked to come and look at the house.

“He said, ‘This is a good house,'” Dr. John recalled. “He didn’t check the plumbing or the architecture. He sensed the energy in the house … I was fascinated by this as a young boy that some people had a “knowingness.”

He shared another experience with spirit when he planned a trip to Ellis Island on Labor Day in 2006. He had an issue with his credit card when he tried to book the trip and then later decided to go instead on September 19. He used the same credit card and the transaction went through without a problem. Dr. John searched for his father’s name to see his immigration record. He discovered that his father had immigrated on September 19, 1907.

“How did that happen?” Dr. John asked. “Spirit intervention.”

Dr. John Muciaccia’s Book Talk Draws a Crowd

Last week’s “Book Talk” on Spirit Lives! at the Hoboken Public Library was a wonderful success for all concerned. About 20 minutes before the event was set to begin, the AC went out at the library. So, taking this as an opportunity, Dr. John Muciaccia moved the venue across the street to Church Square Park.

There were 100 people in attendance and the event was held under a gazebo
in this historic park where many scenes from “On The Waterfront” were shot.

At his “Book Talk” a Michael Jackson impersonator named Marlon Rodriguez performed for the crowd.   Also, Roger Ansanelli, a sound healer used his
crystal bowl to give a blessing to the audience.

Then Dr. John, as he is known to his friends, talked about his book Spirit Lives! to a very enthusiastic group. He discussed several very interesting selections from his book.  He talked “off the cuff” and had his listeners fascinated at what he had to say.

Although Spirit Lives! is not yet published, it has received media attention and is in the hands of a few international publishers being read at this moment.

Interview with Roland Comtois for Spirit Lives!

For my new book Spirit Lives! I was fortunate to be able to interview Roland Comtois, an internationally acclaimed medium, best-selling speaker and author of And Then There Was Heaven, A Journey of Hope and Love.

I interviewed Roland in Chappaqua, New York in May 2012.   The meeting
was fascinating.  And in the last 15 minutes, Roland gave me quite a surprise.
All of a sudden, Roland began twisting in his chair.   His voice changed, his
facial expression changed and he began telling me of the final 15 minutes of
my father’s life – – as though he was my father!    The accuracy of his description
was uncanny, given the fact that Roland never met my father and my father had
passed 20 years previously.
