Publisher's Summary
Those ready to receive this message will listen to this book until the very end. If you are still reading, this is your cue to wake up. The people who listen to this book are ready to reach a higher level of consciousness. Unfortunately, many are not prepared to begin this spiritual and personal journey, which is okay. We still love you. I still love you.
What does spirituality mean to you? Can your spirituality help depression? How does spirituality affect your health? Are spirituality and religion the same? When does someone's spirituality become toxic? Which spirituality is right for me? Where is it exactly that money and spirituality mix? Why is spirituality important? These are all good questions, and our creator—the source, the all—has heard our questions. This book, if you can listen and hear what it is truly saying, will answer all of your questions. I'm so excited for this journey we all must take back home. Where's home?

My children love this book.
We’ve been listening to this book throughout our long summer road trips last few weeks, the kids absolutely love it! Morals and humour all in one.

An answer to Daniel Quinn's question of what humans could do to live sustainably as we evolved to live
Drawing ideas from similar books, I have arrived at similar conclusions. The concept is more fully expounded in FFFHAMS, which I enjoyed reading. The two books provide an answer to Daniel Quinn's question of what humans could do to live sustainably as we evolved to live. Plus, maybe we do need a new old religion, as Kim Stanley Robinson suggests in Ministry for the Future. But it would be most stable in the long run to have many overlapping local and regional religions, based on the local ecosystems.
I think this book is well balanced by books by women, as the author has a very male perspective: Robin Wall Kimmerer on moss, Suzanne Simard on forests, Christine de Pisan, Virginia Wolf, and Sappho on women, Carole Anne Hilton and Elinor Ostrom on true economics (which is local ecology), and Isabel Wilkerson and Maya Angelu on caste, for example.
The book is also well balanced with books by farmers, including food forest farmers, because they actually have local experience with local soils, slopes, and seasons: Michael Foley, John Klar, Masanobu Fukuoka, and Joel Salatin, for example, on small farms or David R Montgomery and Amélie des Planteson soil and society. Consider Professor Ostrom again here on the communal management of common-pool resources, such as water, timber, or fish, which is best done locally.
Add to this some non-Abrahamac perspectives, such as Tyson Yunkaporta, Lao Tzu, Cicero, or Ovid. They all show the way through stories to the path to oneself within nature. Read Daniel Rück on the Mohawk laws of the land as one system that worked for one local group living with the land. Think again of Professor Ostrom's observation that the world is made of many, many such local groups with their own governing institutions.
I could go on, but all these books may be interpreted as pointing in the same direction. I am taking Voltaire's suggestion as Candide did simply to start farming my own garden, working toward food forests, farming, fishing, foraging, trapping, hunting, and living wild and free.

Spiritual Connectoon
I was pleasantly surprised how my spirit connected with this story. the story spoke to me. Makes sense how it unfolds the truth resounds of all Earth culture connection with the land. the progress of commercialism. The truth of we need to reconnect with the land the trees air water plants animals.

You must read this book
The first book is a really good way for people who are unsure or have worries or spiritual thoughts or honestly any human in the entire world. Here you will learn what it really means to be human and how to truly be happy. This is the start. I pray for more to come to life

an eye-opener
I listened to this audiobook in one sitting, and it changed my perspective of my entire life. Humans need to wake up, or as the book points out, find our way back to our wild beautiful natural selves. Look to our babies and children for the clue.

We all lift now on this higher vibration
Amazing. It truly is now! Thank you for this, we are all on this new higher vibration, it is time. We all move back to the land. I'm returning home, I have come, God Is. I feel this message was delivered by spirit directly to me.

Interesting
I'm not quite sure how this is supposed to be a guide book to find purpose, but the spoken word is lovely. there are stories and deep metaphors, but it's description does not match up with the content.

If Only I Could Return This Title
This might be the worst audiobook I've ever tried to listen to. You sit though bad music then finally hear the narrator do an abysmal job reading. I am interested to see if the actual book has periods and commas in the correct places. I wouldn't wish this book on my worst enemy.
I was and still am interested in the message but I can't enjoy it this way.
