Summary of the Book:
A passionate and deep exploration of how love is essential to our spiritual growth and development, from beloved author and teacher A. H. Almaas.
Love is a universal energy–and a primary force that powers our movement toward spiritual illumination. All the ways we need love are simply reflections of our need for spiritual growth. In Love Unveiled, A. H. Almaas explores three dimensions of love: appreciative love–the true liking of somebody or something; merging or connecting love–a force that melts away separateness; and passionate, ecstatic love–capable of consuming us from inside. In their own way, each reveals the beauty and exquisiteness of our spiritual heart, which is the heart of the divine.
However, the path of spiritual love is not without challenges. Almaas explores the barriers that tend to block our experience of loving awakening and provides experiential exercises throughout the book to help readers along their path. The exercises focus on the obstacles or misunderstandings that commonly arise for each quality or dimension of love. Presented in the form of writing or monologuing prompts, readers can work independently or in small groups to confront the emotional obstacles on their spiritual path. Regardless of where you are on your path, Love Unveiled will help you explore love in three essential dimensions and gain a deeper connection to yourself.
My Personal Review: I received a copy of this book for a fair and honest review. This was a book I got to help me with my daily journaling and to help me look deeper into my thoughts and the love I have for myself and awakening the love I need in my life. The book was easy enough to read and follow the little exercises and questions that are offered up. I will go back to this book time and time again when I need to be reminded to love myself.
