{"product_id":"ithaca-insights-a-mystical-odyssey","title":"Ithaca Insights: A Mystical Odyssey","description":"Are you open to the possibility of all possibilities? Get ready to release your previous views and beliefs, and step into a strangely freeing world that will draw you closer to God and truth than you ever thought possible.\nIn response to Contoveros’s previous book, Francis of Assisi: A Novel Awakening to Lady Poverty, Kirkus Reviews writes, “The story manages to bring together in a satisfying and relatable way the various religions it explores, showing similarities among faiths that have long been supposed to be diametrically opposed.” And now, in a similar vein, the author dexterously walks the line of inclusion yet again with his latest book, Mystical Insights: An Ithaca Odyssey.\nAn inspirational memoir of his own madcap journey of holy discovery that began with a three-day retreat at a Buddhist monastery, Mystical Insights reveals just how intimate a relationship you can enjoy with the Creator when you choose to harness your ego and love all unconditionally.\nA Vietnam veteran who suffered from PTSD, Contoveros knows how far removed you can feel from life—but that is only part of the story, and it doesn’t have to be the final chapter. Are you ready to choose a new path?\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1503270947\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1503270947.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Contoveros|Contos Esq, Michael J\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
