This light & airy book is an amusing primer for the beginning student of self discovery. Using humor & candor to illustrate basic metaphysical ideas, it offers the reader the opportunities that come with inquiry: inspiration, wisdom, & joy. Join Shaffron & A-One, the "Ascended One", on a capricious jaunt to inner exploration! "BRIDGE" is the first of a trilogy of self-help books that bridge psychological & spiritual gaps in all our lives, & is laced as heavily with Buddhist & Eastern thought patterns as with Christian & Western, thus blending East with West. He notes that when a baby is born in the West, "The baby is taught in most societies how to exist as a Descended Lower Self. That is actually necessary for survival, but the natural meditative & visionary qualities are put into the grave for future use, i.e., when you die, your spirit Higher Self finally re-emerges." By contrast, Eastern thought would have you experience "meditative & visionary qualities" in your lifetime, thus achieving "your spirit Higher Self" in this lifetime by virtue of a pure, clean & peaceful mind.
