Going Within

Going Within by Shirley MacLaine is an absolute must for anyone who wants to get to the bottom of what makes us tick. It is a most spiritually enlightening look at what keeps us from growing as a species and what we can do to change that.

Excellent - a Mind opener

After reading this book and listening to the audio tape as well...I must say I was transformed. I used her tape to guide my meditations, during which I had a vision of my sister in the hospital. I called home and found out my sister was in emergency surgery and had almost died. If we just open our mind, it's amazing what we can see.

Once again, I was completely enthralled with Miss MacLaine!

This sixth entry into the collection of Shirley MacLaine's spiritual odyssey, strays from the roots of the rest of the books. This guide is a guide to be in tune and in harmony with your self. Let me tell you, it helped me. She discusses the Chakras, Chanting, Sexuality, and the New Age Movement in general. An insightful and very informative read!!!
