About the size of a mens wallet

The content is wonderful, the actual book size is very small. The book itself is about the size of a men’s wallet, so it’s very small type print as well. I was expecting a full size book.

Have this in your pocket or purse

This book is truly what it says on the jacket: "A pocket book of White Eagle's sayings. The perfect companion of every soul on its spiritual journey." There are certain things that we need to be constantly reminded of, such as: "By your love, by your belief in God's love, your belief in love itself, you can create the bridge across which we come to you" or "If you will be steadfast on the path to which your feet have been guided, you will find the treasure of life, a never-ending stream of help and healing and happiness. We, your brothers and guides, are on the road by your side. Not one of you stands alone. You have only to ask in simple trust, and you shall receive; whatever your need, it shall be supplied". For this reason it is good to have a tiny book like this which easily fits into a pocket or purse and which can be pulled out when caught in a traffic jam or when waiting for someone. This is a gem, full of wise saying, just a few sentences long, prepared to remind us how we will reach our true destination. It is divided into nine sections:The Master Soul is Constant ..... Is Gentle, Loving, Kind ..... Is Tolerant ..... Is Calm, Quiet and Steady .... Is Strong to Serve .... Is Wise in Speech and Action .... Is a Tower of Strength and Light .... Bears no Resentment .... Is Patient, Trusting in God's Goodness and His Perfect PlanA perfect gift to your self or for a loved one who is always on the go but who may need reminding that "The secret of strength lies in the quiet mind."

Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio?

Where is this White Eagle guy these days? In the age that we live in, described so well in James Gleick's "Faster", who among us could not use a reminder to slow down, breathe, and have a little inner peace? I myself have long been subject to panic attacks, and this book has helped me out on numerous occasions. I recommend keeping it next to your bed, ideally somewhere near your head so it's easier to reach for if you ever wake up suddenly out of a nightmare. This is a lot like Kahlil Gibran's stuff, but I like White Eagle better. He is less in-your-face about his mysticism, and really tries to help people. Basically every page of this book has, I would say, at least three little nuggets of wisdom that most of us would never think of on our own. That reminds me -- when I was a kid, I used to have a lot of fun playing "Dungeons and Dragons". I always had a hard time, however, understanding the difference between "intelligence" and "wisdom", both of which are qualities a character in that role-playing game must display... If I had this book available to me then, I strongly suspect that I would have had a much better understanding of the difference between those qualities, and of how important that difference is for happiness... You really should check this one out, O Reader.

Some books are not books but rafts to peace!

This is in a category all its own. You don't just read it, you live it. You carry it with you. You use it like spiritual vitamins. It is a place to hang on in dark nights of the soul. I can't imagine life without this book! Linda Schiller-Hanna

Unearthly Wisdom, direct from the Source!

Very few books (none that I am aware of) come so quickly, directly and sincerely to the point about lifes questions that we all ponder, as does "Quie Mind". For anyone needing answers to any of lifes questions, this book never seems to fail. A small book with a Universal Punch!
