All negativity in life comes from insecureity and ego (illusionary thoughts of our own importance). Insecurity is a made up thought. The only way a person can change how they act is to change how they think, by gaining insight, wisdom, intuition. This book, withoug mentioning the word "God" is perhaps the most spiritual book I have ever read. Learning what makes other people do what they do helps me understand why I do what I do. This book helped me see some critical flaws in the teachings of "orthodox" Christianity. How we act is determined by our awareness (or level of conciousness), not on our beliefs. The things that people do to deaden the pain of insecurity is self destructive (sin). For example: If I am secure about having enought "things" I may steal to get "more", not realizing that in an insecure state I could never steal enough to get rid of the feeling "I don't have enough, I need more". Insecurity is a made up thought, not based on reality. DAS
