Books by Andrew Harvey

This book is based on a belief we both fiercely share: That we are not separate from the Divine, not separate from other humans, and are inextricably interconnected with the Earth community, with a responsibility to protect and to live in humble and grateful harmony with the whole of creation.

Becoming God quite simply helps you define what God is and isn't. Its short, eloquent 108 epigrams, written by a 17th-century German mystic, open a window into the heart of God and awaken the joy of spiritual connection open to everyone.In this vibrant new volume, you will find the treasure you may not have known you were seeking. Slow down to a stop. Sit quietly with each poem as a meditation, as a living prayer. ~ Mirabai Starr, author of Wild MercyOne of those rare, mystical jewels that enchant the soul. A perfect book to read on days when you are in need of grace. ~ Caroline Myss, author of Anatomy of the SpiritWith these brilliant translations, Andrew Harvey brings us to the doorway of great wisdom. Once inside, we are reminded of that which we have most deeply forgotten- our inherent divinity. In these troubled times, this profound offering calls us home! ~ Jeff Brown, author of Grounded Spirituality
