Book Review & Giveaway - Ascension

About The Book

Ascension: Connecting With the Immortal Masters and Beings of Light teaches readers how to dive deep within and recover what might be called the higher self, guardian angel, inner guru, spiritual guide, master-teacher, or God within.

Ascension is easy to understand, logical, and practical, with simple-to-learn methods requiring no previous experience, background, training, or knowledge. The book is filled with stories about visitations from divine beings; methods for meeting ascended masters and angels of light; and inspiring messages from the immortal masters and deities.  Ascension also contains stories, beautiful paintings, and drawings of these immortal beings.

Ascension will teach readers:

• Who the ascended masters and divine beings are, and how to meet them.
• What it means to experience ascension and walk beyond death.
• How to begin their own ascension process.
• How to meet their own inner divine teachers and discover their names.
• How to hear, see, feel, and get “signals” from inner teachers.

“Ascension takes off in a vast new direction.  I really believe your insights into yourself and the world in which you live will be altered forever by reading this book.”

-James Van Praagh, spiritual medium, author of Unfinished Business.

About the Author

Susan Shumsky, DD, is the author of Exploring Auras, How to Hear the Voice of God, Exploring Chakras, and other well-known titles. She appears regularly in the media and has been featured in Woman’s World, Cosmopolitan, and GQ. Dr. Shumsky has practiced self-development disciplines for more than 40 years. For 22 years she was the student and personal assistant to the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, founder of Transcendental Meditation and guru of the Beatles. She then studied New Thought and metaphysics for another 20 years. Dr. Shumsky has taught thousands worldwide to meditate, develop their intuition, and attain self-realization and enlightenment. 

My Take On The Book
Dr. Shumsky does a wonderful job at providing the reader with a guide to become "an explorer of eternity." She writes as if having a dialog with the reader, helping us understand the intricacies of numerous ascended masters. She uses stories that are both humorous and inspiring. She introduces us to mythical beings, saints, the Buddhas, as well as everyday people that have stories that open the doors in our minds to ascension.

Dr. Shumsky keeps her investigation succinct, and it becomes quite clear that this book could be much longer than it truly is. The book is very practical and easy to read and is written for the person who does not know much about ascension or the masters who came before. She makes this topic (one that I did not have any previous knowledge of) easy to understand. It became clear to me that Dr. Shumsky was telling her readers that anyone can be connected to God, and that the process was not as difficult as some think it should be.

The book does a great job at introducing the readers to the immortal beings within varying cultures. I enjoyed learning about these beings and their stories. As mentioned, I was not aware of the stories of thes beings prior to reading this and I truly found myself enlightened after reading about these beings and wanting to share my knowledge (and the book with others).

If this books sounds like one that you would like to add to your own collection, you can find it over at Amazon!
