Eckankar shows how these spiritual experiences are relevant to everyday life. Past lives, dreams, and Soul Travel are more than intriguing ancient mysteries. They are the natural activity of Soul. Soul is the True Self, the inner, most sacred part of each person.

Eckankar: Ancient Wisdom for Today Reviews

Ekankar is a religion!
The thing that really gets me about this book is that, in the very beginning, it says that this book is not used to try and convert the reader to practice ECK, and instead it consisted of stories that helped people realize God was real. It did, indeed, have stories about people discovering god, however, when it wasn’t talking about those stories, it mainly talked about the studies of ECK, therefore I felt as though this book was trying to convert me, which is fine if I wanted to read a book to find a religion, but I honestly just thought it would have tips about how to become closer to God, but it wasn’t that at all, which is really disappointing considering that the book cover says exactly that. -
