Profound Light

 

Book: Profound Light 

Written by: Jacob Mundy 

My Thoughts:

I appreciate the author for bravely sharing his journey with the world. His story reminded me of the famous quote "Everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about. Be kind. Always."

From a young age, Jacob confronted significant challenges. Diagnosed with cancer at just three years old, he courageously battled with unwavering support from his devoted family.

Yet, cancer wasn't his only hurdle. Jacob faced delays in crawling and later, a diagnosis of Expressive Language Disorder. Undeterred, he persevered through every obstacle, emerging triumphant.

Jacob's narrative reminds me to maintain perspective amid life's trials, knowing others face even greater struggles. I'm grateful for the opportunity to read this impactful story of resilience, family unity, and enduring love, which will undoubtedly linger in my thoughts. This inspiring tale deserves to be widely shared. Hats off to the author for his fighting spirit.

Walking Spirit in a Native Way

  Book: Walking Spirit in a Native Way  Author: James B. Beard My Thoughts: From the opening dedication to the final reflections, Beard constructs a narrative rich with reverence—for the Elders who taught him, for the land, and for the unseen forces that shaped his transformation.  The structure of the book is simple: Beard moves between intimate memories and the teachings he absorbs over the years. But underneath that simplicity is a meaningful exploration of belonging. I was deeply moved by the vulnerability he brings to discussing identity. Beard doesn’t claim ownership of traditions not originally his; instead, his story is one of being shaped, humbled, and guided by Indigenous communities through years of service and learning. In a time when cultural storytelling can be mishandled or sensationalized, this book stands out for its reverence and restraint. The memoir also engages readers who enjoy contemplative pacing. This book is a long walk beside the author as he le...

Awakening the Mystic

  Book: Awakening the Mystic  Author: Rob Dorgan  Review: Rob Dorgan’s Awakening the Mystic is a radiant fusion of fiction, memoir, and spiritual teaching. The novel follows Ren, a seeker whose yearning for inner peace leads him from Catholic traditions to yoga, astrology, and ultimately a transcendent love with his partner, Sean. The story is both personal and universal—inviting readers to reflect on their own journeys of identity, loss, and healing. What stands out most is how Dorgan uses mystical experiences—dreams of saints, visions of silver threads, encounters with archetypal feminine energies—to illustrate the profound truth that love is the essence of human connection. The narrative gently educates without preaching, weaving in yoga philosophy, Patanjali’s Sutras, and the healing power of mudras and mantras. It reads like a soul-guide disguised as a novel. For anyone seeking a book that nourishes both heart and spirit, Awakening the Mystic offers not only an engag...
