Requests:  0 Summary:  For the millions of Americans who want spirituality without religion, Sam Harris's new book is a guide to meditation as a rational spiritual practice informed by neuroscience and psychology. Waking Up is for the 30 percent of Americans who follow no religion, but who suspect that Jesus, Buddha, Lao Tzu, Rumi, and the other saints and sages of history could not have all been epileptics, schizophrenics, or frauds. Throughout the book, Harris argues that there are important truths to be found in the experiences of such contemplatives -- and, therefore, that there is more to understanding reality than science and secular culture generally allow. Waking Up is part seeker's memoir and part exploration of the scientific underpinnings of spirituality.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 204 Harris Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 204 Ha Checked out 06/19/2024 Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 204 Ha Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kapaa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 204 Ha Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 204 Ha Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Liliha Public Library Adult Nonfiction 204 Ha Checked In   Add Copy to MyList McCully-Moiliili Public Library Adult Nonfiction 204 Ha Checked In   Add Copy to MyList North Kohala Public Library Adult Nonfiction 204 Ha Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Pahoa P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 204 Ha Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 204 Ha Checked In   Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 Next
