Customer Reviews

a physician's perspective

This book is one of the most beautiful I have ever seen. It is equalled only by her second book, Sacred Poems and Prayers of Love. I am saddened to see that the book is out of print now, but am happy to see that the tape is available. The combination of Mary Ford-Grabowsky's selections, and Andrew Harvey's stunning reading should not be missed. I have given copies of this book and of the tape to some of my dying patients. They found it wonderfully comforting in their final hours. One woman also expressed to me how wonderful it was to have the book available to thumb through after her husband was gone -- she said it supported her through her immense grief. I anxiously await more from this author!

A great book! It brought me peace.

The author offers a path to real solace in a world, make that a country, where ethics just don't seem to matter. This book rekindles a spiritual connection that brings us back to a love for each other that will restore peace in our world.

A beautiful book!

A wonderful collection of prayers from all around the world and from a variety of traditions. Mary provides insightful introductions to each chapter. The book is beautifully printed and bound -- would make a great gift. Highly recommended!
