Drawing on his forty years' experience in spiritual self-transformation, Taylor offers a potent array of practical tools, stories, and life lessons that help us reorder the events in our lives, the way people respond to us, and the impact we have on the world. \u003ci\u003eThe Enlightenment Quest and the Art of Happiness\u003c\/i\u003e shows us how to master ourselves so that we can harness the energy of higher power to surmount the chaos of the modern world and provides strategies for \"sociological aikido\" that allow us to deal effectively with negative people, narcissists, and egotists. Informed by Taylor's incredibly varied background--from European pop star, to student of Paramahansa Yogananda, Gurdjieff, and Mantak Chia, to resident at the pioneering Findhorn Community, to playing Carl Jung on stage for many years--this book demonstrates how, by understanding the powers active in creation, we can become instruments through which higher power continually flows to advance our evolution toward consciousness. In doing so, we not only transform ourselves, we become powerful agents for changing the world. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eReaders learn how to: \u003cbr\u003e- Deal with negative people and egotists\u003cbr\u003e- Use higher power to redirect the world around one to one's own advantage\u003cbr\u003e- Stay sane in an insane world by understanding true spiritual psychology\u003cbr\u003e- See the world as it is instead of spiritually daydreaming that \"things are going to get better\" \u003cbr\u003e- Move beyond conspiracy theories and conspire instead to create a united world of consciousness\u003cbr\u003e- Gain fresh insights into the work of Campbell, Jung, Paramahansa Yogananda, Gurdjieff, and others\u003cbr\u003e- Apply the Findhorn principles of miraculous manifestation as practiced by the author since 1973\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Maxwell Taylor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1583949186\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781583949184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e North Atlantic Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/24\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 328\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 1.10d","brand":"John Maxwell Taylor","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46199121314047,"sku":"9781583949184","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_04b9a5e4-52b4-4dd9-a7a6-4b77ce895522.jpg?v=1727925102","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-enlightenment-quest-and-the-john-maxwell-taylor-9781583949184","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
