Review

“To say Nikola Anandamali Ristic is holistic is like saying the ocean is salty. In Spirit X he casts a remarkably wide net, drawing wisdom from all corners of the vast spiritual terrain, reconciling all kinds of paradoxes, and harmonizing elements that appear to be contradictory but are, from the right perspective and in the right hands, perfectly compatible: the ancient and the ultra-modern; tradition and innovation; inner and outer; spirit and matter; transcendence and immanence; the sacred and the (seemingly) profane; body and soul; visible and invisible; lofty ideas and gritty reality. Above all, the book is as practical as it is inspiring and enjoyable. Readers will find the book a great companion as they move ahead on the spiritual path.”
Philip Goldberg, author of Spiritual Practice for Crazy Times; The Life of Yogananda; and American Veda.

“A poetic Integral guide and workbook for the 21st century that skillfully leads us to the unspeakable. Laced with instructions for profound practices, it teaches us how to use every aspect of our life, including love relationships, for waking-up and growing-up to put our gifts and purpose in service of creating a better world. Spirit X should be on every nightstand and coffee table for our daily inspiration and spiritual practice.”
Martin Ucik, author of Integral Relationships: A Manual for Men and Sex, Purpose, Love: Couples in Integral Relationships Creating a Better World

“In Spirit X, Ananda skillfully translates ancient spiritual wisdom for the modern era. Using short, pithy chapters to deliver his teachings, Ananda weaves dharma, practice, and the evolution of consciousness into a seamless declaration of an integral spirituality for our digital age. Spirit X is one of those books that you can pick up and read anywhere and anytime. Readers are sure to benefit from the gems of wisdom it contains.”
Dustin DiPerna, author of Streams of Wisdom

”Spirit X is an elegant and beautifully written kaleidoscope of the aspects of spiritual principle, paths and practices. It feels simple because it has integrated complexity so well. It is playful and clear, gentle and open. It embraces the many expressions of faith that we have. It is an invitation to growth which is compatible with the work of Ken Wilber, and of the developmentalists. It is a pleasure to endorse Spirit X.”
Cindy Wigglesworth, author of SQ21: The Twenty-One Skills of Spiritual Intelligence, President of Deep Change, Inc.
