Empowering Enlightenment

Openings to Lighten the Way is that rarest of finds--a creation so startlingly star·tle  
v. star·tled, star·tling, star·tles

v.tr.
1. To cause to make a quick involuntary movement or start.

2. To alarm, frighten, or surprise suddenly. See Synonyms at frighten.
 unusual that it keeps taking you by surprise, but at the same time so universal that page by page, Opening by Opening, it feels like coming home.

Light enough to take easily to heart and carry wherever you go, each Opening fuses inspiration, prayer, and poem in just a few charged lines, breathing from the inside out to unfold unfold - inline  our own truest gifts. Over and over, we come home to ourselves, finding our own power to grow--grow luminously, boundlessly--from right here and now.

This empowering enlightenment ranges wide as our lives. Over 200 Openings here embrace both the big and the small, from just washing the dishes to taking on our greatest challenges. A colleague of mine even says that the more we face here in this ever more turbulent world, the more this book can lighten our way.

Sometimes crossing the trails blazed by such explorers of the soul as Buddah, Saint Francis Saint Francis, city, United States
Saint Francis, city (1990 pop. 9,245), Milwaukee co., SE Wis., a residential suburb of Milwaukee on Lake Michigan; inc. 1951. There is meat processing and the manufacture of plastic and metal products.
, and Rumi, these Openings always take their own unique turns. Most turns feel as though they have always pulsed deep down inside us but for the first time here find light. While others may seem strange at first, these often grow on you the most, opening up even wider inside. Surging with wisdom we can use every day, this book brings us home to what truly matters, at the same time casting bright beams away from the beaten track to show a whole world of new paths we can forge.

Critics call author John Sorrell "a master," but mastery here overflows into living mystery. As these Openings reach ever deeper through body, spirit, soul, we breathe them in, lifting closer to ourselves, each other, and the world without end.

Bursting with not only enlightening en·light·en

 but exhilarating empowerment, this book belongs in the hands of us all who reach for the richest life and growth we can know.
