Why Walk When You Can Fly?

Isha has created what she calls the Isha System. This wonderful system includes a Diamond portal with four facets. Each facet includes an important lesson (embracing the present moment, accepting without judgment, loving oneself, and being one with the universe) as well as an accompanying meditation series and mantra. The purpose of this program is to open oneself to unconditional love. Using the facets, opening the portal, and practicing other healthy behaviours such as feeling our emotions, speaking our truth, exercising, and drinking plenty of water we open ourselves to a whole new way of thinking. We let go of the worries and what ifs. We stop looking to tomorrow to fulfil all our hopes and dreams. We live each moment of each day with passion and full of love and joy.

The Isha System is a simple, yet profound path of unconditional love

The book, "Why Walk when you can fly" by Isha contains some very profound wisdom. The book contains the best explanation of Enlightenment I've ever read! Although the book may be slender, don't be fooled by the slimness. It is packed with incredibly powerful statements that will really get you moving in the direction of greater understanding, compassion and connection to yourself and others. If you are open to a path of expanding your consciousness this book will certainly give you the tools to begin. If you've been struggling along your path this book may be of great value to you. Much success to you along your path of discovery, Barbara Bourgette

Focus in the Heart

I had never heard of Isha when I received this book. However, I had heard of the authors endorsing her book - in particular Shakti Gawain and James Twyman. And I loved the title of the book, so was very excited to start reading it! And I was pleased right from the start. Her whole system is based simply on unconditional love, and for this she gives you what she calls "facets" (which are basically affirmations) to repeat silently while focusing energy in different parts of the body. Now I have to admit, I'm not the first to jump for joy when I see another meditation - nor do I care to hear I need to do it for an hour a day to get results. Though this is her suggestion, she also recommends breaking it up into three 20 minute meditations, and then repeating the facets throughout the day. So, I never quite got myself to the full hour, yet I can say wholeheartedly that with that being the case, I still have noticed a change within myself just by spending a few moments in the morning with the facets, and repeating them throughout the day. This book is so lovely and sweet because it really comes from the heart, and speaks to the heart. Isha talks about the importance of healing separation, and the benefits of removing our masks and living authentically. I am SO very glad I read this book. I continue to repeat the facets, and know that I'll continue to grow. This book was very easy to read, easy to understand, and it was quick and to the point. Isha's writing style was charming and sweet, and the book delivers what it says - you just have to do the facets. I know, I know, sometimes we want to be lazy and grow spiritually and emotionally by just reading a book, but this type of growth does take action. The facets are simple, they just take some dedication. And any path worth traveling takes dedication.

GO FOR IT!

i don't remember how i first came across Isha, the author of this book, but i'm glad i did. if you want a refreshing way to create something different in your life....then i say: go for it! it'll take practice and commitment!

Absolute Amazing

This small book hold the key to unconditional love and wisdom. This is an absolutely amazing book and anybody interested in inner growth must read it. It's a life changing book. Isha system described in this book is very simple to follow yet extremely powerful. I've been reading Eckhart Tolle and Osho for quite some time, but its not easy to be in Here and Now. How to be in Here n Now? How to go away with self judgments? How can we be at ease with ourselves if we dont love ourselves. This book holds the key - Isha system. While practicing the Isha system awareness expands and being in here and now comes naturally. Only in couple of days I am able to see changes in my self. Sitting with myself was not very easy, now an hour just fly past. I can sense that experience of peace and joy spreading in my everyday life. I highly recommend it. Read it! Who knows it can be the turning point in your life :-) With Love & Light, -Vikas
