This is a landmark work by self-realization teacher and bestselling author Guy Finley, who offers compelling evidence that within every human being dwells a nameless Sacred Being that teaches us to live in the light of our own true selves. In THE SEEKER, THE SEARCH, THE SACRED, Finley presents passages from all the major religious traditions and philosophies to demonstrate -despite differences in language and form - how they all work in concert to describe different aspects of a single compassionate, loving, and divine intelligence. Finley includes hundreds of quotes and inspiring thoughts from writers, teachers, and philosophers from around the world, including: Walt Whitman, Plutarch, Meister Eckhart, Michelangelo, Shakespeare, William Blake, Thomas Merton, Goethe, Confucius, Buddha, Lao Tzu, Krishnamurti, James Oppenheim, Carl Jung, Rainer Maria Rilke, George Gurdjieff ,Marcel Proust ,Sren Kierkegaard, Thoreau, C.S. Lewis, and many others.
