Reflections of My Higher Self

ABOUT Joe Danna

Description

With windows to his past used as a backdrop to the main purpose of his new novel, "Reflections of My Higher Self", Joseph Danna's introspective odyssey about the crossroads of psychology with spirituality is educational, as it ascends the heights of metaphor in a journey through alternate realities.

The roots of human identity are examined and shown as either based in the truth about us as universal beings, or in what is false. The writing explains how the whole trajectory of our perception, especially of others, begins with how we see ourselves. But the crux of the story reveals that how we see ourselves is often maligned due to an unconscious error, which manifests as chaos in the world. The only remedy for this error is the truth, which for protagonist Salvatore DiSanti and his troubled past, escalates to magnificent displays of his innocence.

The presentation is not only read, but felt, as it depicts the science of life as of One Essence. It shows how beneath every conflict we are facets of a greater whole with a larger purpose. After the order of Bob Olsen, Teal Swan, Penney Peirce and Ziad Masri, for the world to grasp the implications of the universal principles laid out in "Reflections of My Higher Self" would be the most profound step humanity could now take.

What started as a 500-word short story assignment gained its own momentum, surprising me when it developed into a 52,000-word novel. The information I had stored somewhere in the back of my mind related to identity, belief, and perception, was expressed against a backdrop of my life while growing up in Gloucester, Massachusetts. Little did I know what was to unfold would turn out to be a showcase for the natural laws of the universe.

Ron's "The Narrow Gate" Review December 29, 2010

Format:Kindle Edition
The Narrow Gate A Journey Through Identity, Belief and Perception is a wonderful captivating story that draws the reader into the mind of its main character through a detailed account of the events which brought Salvatore DeSanti through an intriguing transformation. This is a truly compelling tale of a young man who experiences life in the physical realm while being led towards the development of his spiritual senses. The story of his visit from the spirit of an ascended friend who he did not yet know had completed his walk on this physical plane echoed an experience I once had and in doing so brought me to a place of shared consciousness with Salvatore.

The author paints a vivid picture of the small New England town in which Salvatore expanded his consciousness. I felt at home in every paragraph and found myself reminiscing of times past through the photos in my mind and the new images created there by JP Danna.

This book is one that everyone should read whom is in a place of uncertainty about their present beliefs. One who is yearning to move forward and expand their faith and consciousness while journeying along their path of infinite ascension will gain much understanding through the experiences of Salvatore DeSanti. The shared circumstances and situations throughout this book not only exhibit a common thread between reader and writer, but also bring enlightenment and solace through the use of effective analogy and vivid expressiveness.

I highly recommend this book. The most frustrating thing about reading The Narrow Gate A Journey Through Identity, Belief and Perception was to force myself to put it down.
