Awakening The Genie Within

by Bill Carpenter

Overview

Are your feelings, thoughts and beliefs created mainly by intuition and the subconscious mind? Or are they a product of your intellect and cultural/social programming? The former supports and enhances the natural flow of your life energy; while the latter can shape, direct or even block it.

In Awakening the Genie Within author Bill Carpenter deliberately invokes the word "programming" to convey how a lack of conscious involvement in your own life and fixed belief systems prevent you from fully embracing your inner "genie," the life force or spirit within you. The book's purpose is to help you understand and transcend your individual and collective programming (ego and culture) and help you to live a more fulfilled and sustainable life. If the mind is powerful enough to create the ego, it can also transcend it, Carpenter believes. The exercises in this book are designed to do just that.

This practical and provocative guidebook poses tough questions to help you and your groups and organizations analyze your worldviews, which can cause dissent among individuals and even outright oppression on a global scale. The goal is to help you understand and challenge your tightly held belief systems that tend to divide us. We have far more in common than that which the ego focuses on to separate us. Carpenter is your engaging guide on this journey of self-discovery for the betterment of yourself and the future of our world. We must resist the lure to be mindless drones of the collective.
