Notes from grateful readers.

“Your audio came to me by a mysterious coincidence. I had a public speaking commitment coming up, and I was terrified of it, but I knew that I had to do it. Somehow there was a Divine intervention that dropped this audio into my lap about two weeks ago. Your presentation is magnificent, and I am so grateful. It has opened up a whole new area of my life. I am 80. Thank you, and God bless you.”

— Howard M.

“Please tell Guy he changed my life. I listened to his audiobooks every night for about 1 year; I felt like he was talking to me. Thank you. ”

The Seeker, The Search, The Sacred is... a giant leap for mankind, definitely more important than the footprint left on the moon! With this monumental undertaking, you have reminded each of us that we are Love and that all the religions agree, at their root, that this is the Truth of us all.”
