For spiritual or self-help growth, start with classics such as The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle for presence and mindfulness, and The Untethered Soul by Michael A. Singer for inner freedom. By combining habit-building and personal transformation, James Clear has written Atomic Habits. The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz offers simple yet profound life principles that can help you gain a deeper sense of self-awareness. For healing and self-love, consider Louise Hay’s You Can Heal Your Life. There is a unique tool in each book that will assist you on your journey.

Fore sure, my very favorite of all books is from Shambhala publishing, The Encyclopedia of Eastern Philosophy and Religion. All religions are built from language, and I believe language was given to us from inside out. Sanskrit (topic of this book) is called the, Great Mother. This is the greater inner mystery of the old mystery schools. The outer mystery is called the lesser mystery, and is likely well represented by Hebrew / Greek / Latin. Sanskrit is special. Anyone who seeks the inner meaning from the pure fountain, it’s Sanskrit / Pali. It’s like a programming language for the Spirit. I experienced a great deal of synchronicity in life around annotating this entire book.
