Wisdom Books: Above Life’s Turmoil by James Allen
If you cherish “As a Man Thinketh,” then “Above Life’s Turmoil” will not fail you. In this book, Allen disects the human condition and like a master physician, he offers solutions in his haunting and truthful style. In his own words, “Surrounded by noise, we can yet have a quiet mind; involved in responsibilities, the heart can be at rest; in the midst of strife, we can know the abiding peace. The twenty pieces which comprise this book, unrelated as some of them are in the letter, will be found to be harmonious in the spirit, in that they point the reader towards those heights of self-knowledge and self-conquest which, rising above the turbulance of the world, lift their peaks where the Heavenly Silence reigns.” This book is beautiful. As with Allen’s other works, you will re-visit the pages of this book often. Read it yourself and see why.
