The beautiful ways he had at expressing words, so meaningful, was a gift to me. What I liked was he picked the ones that had so much meaning to our lives, short little chapters,easy to read. This book 'Oneness with all life was a series of passages from the original book. Sharing with a group helps because we all have different ways of interpreting and understanding the way in which his message was written. We were going to do a little on each chapter, however, we kept getting stuck on one 'ThePainBody', in Chapter 5. The group was lead by a psychologist in a small group of about ten women. That being said, I enjoyed his book so much I read it again and then took a 10 week class to study it more deeply with the chapters I struggled with. I had to keep rereading over and over to get what he was saying. I read that a number of years ago when it was so popular. I bought this book because I really enjoyed Elkhart Tolle's book A New Earth.
