Entering the Castle: An Inner Path to God and Your Soul

2007Caroline Myss

4.3/5

Definitely tops all of her other books, at least for me. In fact, this may be the best book I have ever read, as far as the effect it had on me. My favorite quote: "It takes great courage to look for God. It takes far greater courage to find God." When you truly find God, you will understand the meaning of this quote. To invite God to take over your life is to invoke Divine Chaos into your life. If you are not ready for this type of spiritual upheaval, don't enter the Castle. I was excited when I started reading it, all set to start my mystical life. It wasn't long before the reading became so painful that I put it down and thought I might never pick it up again. It was too personal, it made me see things in myself that I'd never seen before and wasn't prepared to examine. If this is what it takes to be a mystic, I don't need it. If the book had been written by anyone else, I would have deposited it in the nearest waste receptacle and gone about my merry way. But I have too much respect for Caroline Myss to turn my back on and walk away from anything she says. Some of her words are harsh, but she calls it a she sees it. She has no choice, given the places she's gone, the things that have been revealed to her. I did the 'soul work" and got through one mansion after another. By the time I reached the fourth mansion, it was pure joy - the seventh mansion was ecstacy. I will definitely go back and revisit this book, when I am feeling strong enough.
