Answering The Call of the soul: How Suffering Transforms our Consciousness and Our Experience of the World - Paperback

by Paul Ferrini (Author)

Pain is not a punishment.
It is a wake-up call for our soul.
It is a doorway to transformation.

Human suffering is universal. It started in the
days of Adam and Eve and continues today, in your
life and mine. All of us feel fear, shame, and various
forms of physical or psychological pain. Some of this
is unavoidable . . . we just have to weather the storm.
But some of our suffering is self-created. It arises from
past wounds, false beliefs and patterns of self-betrayal
that we can understand and heal. As we heal, we
become more gentle and loving. We stop projecting
our pain and attacking others. We begin to feel
compassion for the suffering of all beings. As we heal
ourselves, the world around us begins to heal.
Our shame is released. Our guilt is forgiven.
Innocence is reborn, in your heart and mine.
