The Untethered Soul

In his younger days Singer had a spiritual experience that awakened him, and his life was different from that point on. This is one of the very best books I have come across that clearly explains how your mind keeps you in thrall, what consciousness is, and how to deal with your unruly mind. Read it in small doses. Highlight extensively. Refer to often. This slim book is a keeper.
