In the nature of all great spiritual works, Understanding God grabs your mind and your spirit and does not let go. It's the result of lifetimes dedicated to the search to understand God, but it is not a work of religion or philosophy. It does not preach. It is not religious; it is not polarizing; it does not have an agenda. The book is written in clear, sparse language that both nourishes and challenges your thinking about your relationship with the eternal, and how that relationship shapes your everyday decisions. Readers are plentiful; thinkers are rare. The truth is, there are some things in life where we're all meant to be thinkers, and are meant to make up our own mind. This book can be read in a day but its impact can provoke an understanding that can last a lifetime. If you only read one book on spirituality and God, Understanding God should be that book.
