Last winter, in the midst of a very difficult time in my life, I made a phone call to Australia and connected with a woman that I know to be one of the true enlightened beings awake on this planet at this time. She told me to buy your book Silence of the Heart, which is amazing because she encourages people to move beyond books to connect to the information source within. She endorses only two books that I know of: Love Without Conditions and Silence of the Heart.
Within the pages of these books I received phenomenal clarity and healing in my time of trauma. I was guided by the presence embodied in the words to find my way to a closer relationship with my SELF. I was also inspired to give the book to my friend Vicki, who had just told me that her doctor had discovered a lump in her breast. The next day Vicki left a message on my answering machine that was exhuberant and joyful. "I read the book, and I GET IT! I NEED TO LOVE MYSELF! This book tells me what I have always known at some deeper level...it's incredible!" My heart soared with her words and I knew she was making the deep connections that would lead to her healing. Her mammogram came out clean three weeks later, thanks in no small part to your writing.
Our actions are like rocks thrown in the pond. The ripples go out far in all directions. Often we have no idea just how distant or how powerful the impact can be. Be assured that your words and deeds are touching many and bringing healing and nuturing wisdom to mutitudes. you have made a difference in my life, in Vicki's life, and in the lives of many others.

My partner and I are reading Silence of the Heart in nightly portions. I just finished a written item discussing movement from the point of having a fractured or fragmented personality to the point of fusion, stressing the need to renounce victimization and stay away from past and future. The next day I read your chapter "Healing the Divided Self," and you described the situation in a way I never could. I have also been working for years on the art of listening and your two paragraphs in this chapter said better than I possibly could exactly what deep listening is all about.
