Reviews
Penny Gill's book is a deeply transformative, utterly radical and ultimately optimistic reframing of the seemingly insurmountable challenges facing our civilization and our species. -Donal O'Shea, President Emeritus, New College of Florida I think of this book every time I pass one of those signs on a church proclaiming, God is still speaking. Through Penny, Manjushri has given us a god's eye perspective on these tumultuous times to guide us through our uncertainty, fear, and confusion. -Louise Cochran, MDiv There is no doubt that Penny Gill has been instructed by a deeply wise and compassionate discarnate teacher whose critique of modernity has much to teach us all. -Frederique Apffel-Marglin, Prof. of Anthropology Emerita, Smith College Fascinating, mysterious, and wise, Penny Gill's book is a Platonic dialogue for what she terms the post-religion, post-ethics, and post-materialism age....This is ultimately a positive book, a celebration of the transformative potential of Cosmic Mind. -Joanne V. Creighton, President Emerita, Mount Holyoke CollegeAn extraordinarily valuable, immediately useful, and surprisingly hopeful perspective on the human, environmental, and cosmic world. -Randy Kehler, founder of the Promoting Active Nonviolence project
