Gary Zukav Books

This book explores the emergence of new relationships in a changing world, urging us to examine the sources of our love and confront our fears that hinder it. As we evolve beyond the confines of our five senses, we gain access to experiences previously unimaginable, transforming how we perceive ourselves and our connections with others. This evolution presents us with a critical choice: to ignore the changes and maintain old relational patterns or to embrace them and cultivate authentic power and love. The author introduces a dynamic of spiritual partnership that fosters personal growth and fulfillment, applicable not just to romantic couples but to any two or more individuals engaging as equals for spiritual development. With poignant examples and practical guidance, the book offers specific strategies for exploring emotions, intentions, choices, and intuition, facilitating profound spiritual growth. As the world shifts around us, this work serves as a roadmap for navigating these changes, empowering us to transform our relationships and ourselves into more authentic, loving beings.

In this insightful work, Gary Zukav expands on his previous concepts, illustrating how the growth of human perception beyond the five senses leads to a deeper understanding of 'authentic power'. Alongside his coauthor, Linda Francis, he emphasizes the importance of applying these vital concepts to our daily lives. Zukav highlights how true emotional awareness can profoundly transform our experiences. While the journey may be challenging due to the need to confront suppressed pain, it offers immense rewards. A commitment to exploring all aspects of consciousness is essential, replacing the urge to hide painful emotions. This emotional awareness can liberate us from compulsions, fixations, obsessions, and addictions—such as anger, workaholism, and substance abuse—that hinder our spiritual growth. By embracing our emotions, we can create a fulfilling and meaningful life. This work serves as a powerful tool for readers, enabling them to cultivate greater emotional awareness and harness their emotions to achieve authentic power. It is a transformative read, one that invites multiple readings for its life-changing insights.

With the same extraordinary skill that he used to demystify scientific abstraction and the new physics, Gary Zukay, 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.

Shows how an understanding of authentic power can transform lives in many ways

Gary Zukav has written "the Bible" for those who are curious about the mind-expanding discoveries of advanced physics, but who have no scientific background. Like a Wu Li Master who would teach us wonder for the falling petal before speaking of gravity, Zukav writes in beautifully clear language--with no mathematical equations--opening our minds to the exciting new theories that are beginning to embrace the ultimate nature of our universe...Quantum mechanics, relativity, and beyond to the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen effect and Bell's theorem.

"The author of the legendary #1 New York Times bestseller The Seat of the Soul shows us step-by-fascinating-step how to create a life of love and where that now leads"--

New York Times mega-bestselling author of The Seat of the Soul, Gary Zukav takes a giant leap forward in his message, with this guide to the next level of spiritual growth. "THE LONGEST JOURNEY YOU WILL MAKE IN YOUR LIFE IS FROM YOUR HEAD TO YOUR HEART." With the rare combination of profound psychological insight and deep spirituality that has already drawn millions of readers to his two great national bestsellers, The Seat of the Soul and Soul Stories, 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 own daily lives.
