God On Your Own: Finding a Spiritual Path Outside Religion
After spending eight years in a monastery, Joseph Dispenza walked away from his life as a monk and the religion of his youth in search of a different kind of spiritual path.
Outside the confines of organized religion, Dispenza was able to create a spiritual life that gives direction and meaning to all he does and all he is.
"God on Your Own" is written for anyone who has left (or is thinking of leaving) organized religion but wants to continue on a spiritual path.
Written by noted author and retreat leader Joseph Dispenza, this book provides a spiritual road map for those who want to make the transition from conventional religion toward a richer and more satisfying direct relationship with the Source, without rules, dogmas, or doctrines.
Throughout the book, Dispenza offers wise, compassionate guidance, speaking as one seeker to another. He has made this journey himself, gleaning spiritual truth from across traditions and practices.
We have been thinking of ourselves as human beings on a spiritual journey—it would be more correct to think of ourselves as spiritual beings on a human journey.
—Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
A Former Monk Guides You on Your Personal Journey of the Spirit
"Joseph Dispenza and I have much in common. We know monastic life firsthand, and we know Christian theology. When we were very young, something stirred to turn us, toward an unknown spiritual focus; though the forms shifted over the years, the path of seeking is intact. I admire many elements in his story, especially his willingness to pursue intuition in service of his unique spiritual destiny. He takes the spiritual life seriously and yet wears it lightly."
—from the foreword by Thomas Moore
