Your Soul’s Compass, What Is Spiritual Guidance? By Joan Borysenko, Ph.D and Gordon Deverin, Ed.D.
August 13, 2010 by Deborah Ivanoff Filed under Your Soul’s Compass, What Is Spiritual Guidance? By Joan Borysenko, Ph.D and Gordon Deverin, Ed.D.
First Post, Beginning Our Journey. I’m so excited to begin this journey with you all, starting with the study of this book, Your Soul’s Compass.
Joan Borysenko, PhD, is well known for her books and teaching on the mind/body connection, stress relief and healing. Gordon Dveirin, Joan’s husband, is president of his own consulting firm for the field of human development (e.g. how to accomplish more with what you have).
So come join me as I dive right in to this book and pull out all the juicy wisdom from two people who’ve seen much from people who are “on track” and people who are not.
Here’s how they get us going…
“If there is such a thing as spiritual guidance that directs us to our best self individually and collectively, following that guidance involves some serious questions:
How do we tell the difference between spiritual guidance and the ego’s need for control, certainty, and power–or from instinctive drive and social conditioning?
Is there a divine attraction–a kind of grace that pulls us forward on the journey of becoming an awake, compassionate, and purposeful human being…or are we the sole instigators of that quest?
And perhaps most important, is there a compass of love and wisdom, within the soul that keeps us on track–and if so, how does it function”?
Your Soul’s Compass, page xii
Don’t you just love that? I have another question to add, if I might:
How can I use that compass, right now, with what’s going on for me?
Ahhh. So come explore the book, the questions and the answers with me. I look forward to your thoughts and comments. D.
