The Seat of the Soul
Summary
With the same extraordinary skill that he used to demystify scientific abstraction and the new physics, Gary Zukav, the award-winning author of The Dancing Wu Li Masters, here takes us on a brilliant and penetrating exploration of the new phase of evolution we have now entered. With lucidity and elegance, Zukav explains that we are evolving from a species that pursues power based upon the perceptions of the five senses, external power, into a species that pursues authentic power, power that is based upon the perceptions and values of the spirit. He shows how the pursuit of external power has produced our survival-of-the-fittest understanding of evolution, generated conflict between lovers, communities, and superpowers, and brought us to the edge of destruction. Using his scientist's eye and philosopher's heart, Zukav shows how infusing the activities of life with reverence, compassion, and trust makes them come alive with meaning and purpose. He illustrates how the emerging values of the spirit are changing marriages into spiritual partnerships, psychology into spiritual psychology, and transforming our everyday lives. The Seat of the Soul describes the remarkable journey to the spirit that each of us is on.

The Heart of the Soul
Summary
With the rare combination of profound psychological insight and deep spirituality that has already drawn millions of readers to his national best-sellers, including The Seat of the Soul, prizewinning author Gary Zukav now joins with his spiritual partner Linda Francis to help us develop a new emotional awareness that is central to our spiritual development. In The Seat of the Soul, Zukav brilliantly set forth his fundamental concepts, explaining how the expansion of human perception beyond the five senses leads to a new understanding of power as the alignment of the personality with the soul - "authentic power". In Soul Stories, he showed how such concepts as harmony, cooperation, sharing, and reverence for Life express themselves in other people's lives. Now, in The Heart of the Soul, he and Francis take the next major step forward in showing us the importance of emotional awareness in applying these concepts to our daily lives.

The Mind of the Soul
Summary
Here is a practical, useful, and easily understood exploration of the dynamic of choice and how the choices we make affect our everyday lives, for better or worse. Learning the relationship between the choices that we make and the experiences that we encounter is central to freeing ourselves from the illusion that we are victims of our circumstances. The Mind of the Soul: Responsible Choice is essential for all of us who wish to take charge of our lives. Taking control means making the transformation from an individual who is constantly buffeted by the everyday realities of life, to an individual who pro-actively experiments with life to make change in a positive way. Experimenting with new perceptions instead of falling back on the same old patterns of self-definition can open up exciting and dramatically new relationships in life. The Mind of the Soul: Responsible Choice presents in pragmatic terms one part of the process of creating authentic power: the alignment of the personality and the soul that was so brilliantly presented in The Seat of the Soul. It allows listeners to develop, step by step, the ability to break free of habitual, self-defeating patterns of thoughts and actions that hold them back and limit their pleasure and success in life, however that may be defined. The Mind of the Soul: Responsible Choice is also a companion book to The Heart of the Soul: Emotional Awareness, which guides the listener through the process of becoming aware of everything that he or she is feeling at each moment. This audiobook can be absorbed as a stand-alone program, or in conjunction with The Seat of the Soul, The Heart of the Soul, or both.

Spiritual Partnership
Summary
This book is about our new relationships. A new and surprising world is emerging that requires each of us to explore the sources of our love and cultivate them and the inner sources of all that prevents us from loving (our fears) and heal them. Our evolution has taken a new path, and our relationships are changing in unexpected and dramatic ways. We are evolving beyond the limits of our five senses and encountering more expanded experiences of ourselves and our world than were previously possible. Where once our perception was confined to what we see, hear, taste, touch, and smell, we are now increasingly able to access data that these senses cannot detect. This expanded perception is forever altering our experiences of ourselves, our world, and our relationships. Our evolution now presents us at each moment with a profound choice: we can pretend that our lives and the world are not changing and continue to relate to one another as before, or we can use our relationships to transform ourselves into authentically powerful, loving individuals. In Spiritual Partnership, best-selling author Gary Zukav reveals a profound new relationship dynamic that enables us to reach our full potential and create authentic power - the fulfilling and joyful life that is calling to us all. Spiritual partnerships are not only for couples in marriage; they can be created anywhere two or more individuals decide to engage as equals for the purpose of spiritual development. Filled with poignant examples and practical guidance, including specific guidelines, Spiritual Partnership empowers and enables us to explore our emotions, our intentions, our choices, and our intuition and to use them to create profound spiritual growth. The world is changing around us and within us, and Spiritual Partnership is the road map to that change.

Soul to Soul
Summary
With The Seat of the Soul, Gary Zukav emerged as one of the most important leaders in the world of spiritual development, and with the support of Oprah, who considers it the single most powerful book she has ever read (except for the Bible), it went on to sell upwards of 2.5 million copies. All of Zukav's subsequent titles, many of them best-sellers in their own right, were mainly explanations and practical applications of the basic concepts and somewhat abstract terminology of The Seat of the Soul. Soul to Soul represents a giant step forward in the evolution of his work, less concerned with theoretical constructs than with responding to important questions about life and the human spirit. Told in a beautifully simple, even poetic style, Soul to Soul is divided into two sections: Part One, "Soul Subjects", consists of over 60 brief, enormously compelling, and often profoundly wise stories of people's lives that lead us to examine our own experiences in new and perhaps life-changing ways. They are not at all abstract or laden with heavy terminology, but rather embody what might best be described as "felt experience": specific insights and wisdom growing out of fresh life encounters that are truly meaningful to us. Part Two, "Soul Questions", introduces an innovative format, different from anything Zukav has done before. Combining profound psychological insight and deep spirituality, Soul to Soul provides fascinating answers to well over 100 questions that will be of enduring value to listeners. More than that, what has been accomplished bears repeating, for it is monumental: nothing less than to respond to many of the most fundamental questions about life that anyone could ask with answers that have universal worth. Soul to Soul is truly empowering and will help listeners to become the people they want to be.

Igniting Your Soul Life
Summary
According to the best selling author Gary Zukav, "What it means to be a human being is changing in deep, irrevocable, and highly significant ways. It's not a matter of looking at things differently than we have before; it's a matter of being able to look at things differently than we did before." On this fascinating audio program, Zukav and New Dimensions Radio host Michael Toms discuss the future, one that is exploding with possibility and potential. Zukav explains that as we communicate more and more with the nonphysical world and comprehend the deep spiritual dynamics that underlie the surface appearances of our physical reality, we gain "authentic power." He reveals how to get in touch with this power to become a "multisensory" person and gain access to data that your five senses cannot provide. As you listen to this spirited dialogue, you'll see how to develop your intuitive powers, better understand the nature of male-female relationships, learn techniques to help your personality become aligned with your soul...and much more!
