Product Description Nurture Your Spiritual Path offers us the potential for growth and fulfillment through an examination of the world's historic religions, new avenues of emerging spiritual thought, and a rapidly developing global culture. This book is for the millions who consider themselves spiritual and for those who don't, but try to live lives of integrity and conscience. It's also for the billions who identify with one of the world's major religions but are also interested in other faiths. Most of us adhere to the beliefs we inherited, and John Young doesn't suggest we discard them. Rather, he invites us to open ourselves to the wealth of wisdom we can discover by learning about other traditions and provides opportunities to integrate the best of the world's modern-day spiritual practices with elements of historic religions that touch our spirit. He provides roadmaps that can guide us to a more meaningful understanding of our diversity, and the creation of personal devotional practices that enable us to fulfill our hopes for a future determined by how well we cooperate, share, and embrace the Earth as our home.
