I love this quote of his... "if your happiness depends on what somebody else does...I guess you do have a problem.." |

Jonathan Livingston Seagull is an absolute favourite!!! Love it! Synchronicity - I just recommended it to a friend just a few days ago! |

Yes - I enjoy reading his stuff - Jonathan Livingston Seagull is a great read. A favourite quote of mine from it:
'You will begin to touch heaven, Jonathan, in the moment that you touch perfect speed. And that isn’t flying a thousand miles an hour, or a million, or flying at the speed of light. Because any number is a limit, and perfection doesn’t have limits. Perfect speed, my son, is being there.' |

One of my all-time favorite authors.
Jonathan Livingston Seagull is a masterpiece. My 9-year old daughter loves it too.
Bridge Across Forever is another great book. It was when I read it in high school that I learned about out of body experiences!
Thank you for bringing this up gatito. Will pull out those books again!
Love, kami |

His books were very important to my spiritual development as a teenager, especially Seagull and Illusions. |

Yes, Seagull and Illusions certainly made an impact on me in the 80's.
My teenage son loved Seagull as well (and you may want to follow this up with Paulo Coelho's The Alchemist - he loved this too)
One of my favourite quotes from Illusions (it's on the back cover of my copy): -
Here is a test to find out if your mission on earth is finished: If you're alive, it isn't. |
