The international bestseller A Guide for the Advanced Soul is a book to be consulted in those crucial moments of your life when you need a word of comfort, of unbiased guidance and inspiration. The important thing is, it never gives you outright advice (which could even be dangerous in such delicate times of crisis).
Instead of giving you too specific - or too general - directions you couldn't relate to, it simply stirs your own resources, drawing out your inner potential. It's more of an inciter than an advisor. It helps you choose the path that is most consonant with your own walk of life and which will lead you to gratification and inner peace rather than to more tensions and doubts.
In fact, the Authoress suggests you should hold the book in your hands, meditate about your trouble, then open the book randomly and find your own answer. This elegant selection of quotes, written in beautiful calligraphy - from Walt Whitman to the Koran, from the Nobelist Herman Hesse to William James, from the Bible to the famous guru Paramhansa Yogananda - is actually not intended to be read from cover to cover, so powerful and precious are the thoughts it contains.
As the Authoress, Susan Hayward, writes in her foreword to the reader:
"Everything in the universe is continuously integrating and disintegrating - this produces transformation and growth. Your problems are caused by your resistance towards this natural cyclic movement of life."
"When you randomly open this Guide you are addressing the universe, and it responds to your question, which you then interpret intuitively. Regard your problems as opportunities for learning and creating something new, and you will feel a sense of well-being that results from your shift in consciousness. Know that we are only presented with lessons when we are ready to learn them."
"Above all, trust your own direction. I hope this Guide gives you confidence to follow your path and surrender to the inner intuitive voice that recognises the harmony and wholeness that has always been there."
A Guide for the Advanced Soul is a stylish, quality gift you will be definitely remembered by, again and again: that's why it's primarily intended for those that you profoundly, truly care about.
Highly acclaimed by Frank from Athens, GA, Mary from Florida, Astrid from Switzerland, Kate, Meg from New Zealand etc. etc.

Please that special someone you really care about. Or, if you feel like you deserve a break after all these gift ideas - give yourself a gift:
For a special person, particularly for your mom or dad or maybe for your grandmother or grandfather, hand-craft a useful gift yourself - frame a picture, make a paper weight, decorate a coffee mug - not only with your hands, but also with your heart.W. H. from Illinois
Consider giving a portrait for a change. Portraits stand out as special, unique, one-of-a-kind reminders of your love and thoughtfulness. Now, how about a "homemade portrait"? If you're a Michelangelo, great; if you're not, make a "custom printed" portrait. You will need a scanner and a color printer (hey, I said "homemade", not "handmade"). First, scan the best photo of your loved one you can find and enlarge it to fit your paper size (generally 8" per 11" should be just fine). Now, put it through some filters in your favorite graphics package. Personally, I like the "oil paint", "watercolor" and "chalk and charcoal" effects best - but any "artistic" filter should do, or you can try "emboss" and "texturize", depending also on your particular software. Now print it out and frame it. Done.
To add just a slight touch of narcissism, use a photo of yourself instead <smile>...John D.
Be creative and innovative! You can come up with a very exclusive gift by simply using a little sympathy, digging a little into the celebrant's basic needs, hobbies, and past (travels, important changes in life, unfulfilled dreams).Viv from Lubbock, TX
Something traditional for a very close and cherished (younger) person: hand down a "family treasure," such as a necklace, a trunk, a fountain pen, grandpa's gold watch, grandma's embroidered tablecloth.Sandra from Washington D.C.
