This book explains who we are and what we’re supposed to be doing here. Smith builds a dynamic and entertaining case for gaining selfunderstanding (and ultimately self-mastery) through the repetition of the Name of God, silently and with attention, as an antidote to our individual suffering. Remembering our true relationship to life and to God, she says, results from saying the Name of God without ceasing during “the dishwashing and cardriving moments of our everyday lives.” This compilation of short vignettes is linked together within important subject areas of spiritual practice. Several hundred of them make the book useful as a “thought for the day” reference, much like the Course in Miracles.
