An indispensable A to Z, 5,800 term glossary—the first of its kind to provide readers with metaphysical interpretations of a wide variety of modern day spiritual, religious, and secular terms. People, animals, plants, objects, places, and events are interpreted as aspects within our own consciousness (thoughts, emotions, tendencies, inclinations, habits, talents, skills, and behaviors, etc.). This A to Z, 5,800 term glossary is the first of its kind to provide readers with metaphysical interpretations of a wide variety of modern day spiritual, religious, and secular terms, with a few of the traditional favorites making cameo appearances. You will find metaphysical interpretations and explanations to terms such as: ambulance, brain candy, cat nap fraud, chatter bomb, flyswatter rebuttal, the Third Coming, gift card millionaires, holy ground, jukebox religion, mental kudzu, never-never land, optical delusions, paparazzi, Internet, speaking in tongues, tattoo, text purgatory, unforgiveable sin, wackadoodles, world tree, youology, Zenful, Ziploc bags. And that is just a tiny smattering of what you will discover! People, animals, plants, objects, places, and events are interpreted as aspects within our own consciousness (thoughts, emotions, tendencies, inclinations, habits, talents, skills, and behaviors, etc.). This Glossary stays outside the dogmatic blinders of religion. It offers a grander, more spiritual perspective on important concepts, events, human qualities, and relationships that either dampen our spiritual growth or foster our collective enlightenment.
