Tears to Triumph

The Spiritual Journey from Suffering to Enlightenment

By: Marianne Williamson

Narrated by: Marianne Williamson

The internationally recognized teacher, speaker, and New York Times best-selling author of A Return to Love argues that our desire to avoid pain is actually detrimental to our lives, disconnecting us from our deepest emotions and preventing true healing and spiritual transcendence.

Marianne Williamson is a best-selling author, a world-renowned teacher, and one of the most important spiritual voices of our time. In Tears to Triumph, she argues that we - as a culture and as individuals - have learned to avoid facing pain. By doing so we are neglecting the spiritual work of healing.

Instead of allowing ourselves to embrace our hurt, we numb it, medicate it, dismiss it, or otherwise divert our attention so that we never have to face it. In refusing to acknowledge our suffering, we actually prolong it and deny ourselves the opportunity for profound wisdom - ultimately limiting our personal growth and opportunity for enlightenment. Frozen by denial, we are left standing in the breach. Whole industries profit from this immobility, and while they have grown rich, we have become spiritually poorer.

As Marianne makes clear, true healing and transcendence can come only when we finally face our pain and wrestle with what it has to teach us. Written with warm compassion and profound wisdom, Tears to Triumph offers us a powerful way forward through the pain, to a deeper awareness of our feelings, our lives, and our true selves.

Beautiful

I wish she would have been my introduction to God/Spiritual world instead of through catechism with nuns that taught me humans are evil (thru teaching and MODELING their behavior), we were all sinners going to Hell because of a very punishing God. I thank you so much for this book. I can't stop listening to it and praying the prayers with you.

Beautiful writing and beautiful voice.

The book is written and narrated beautifully. Anyone looking to start a new chapter or journey in their life might find this book useful.

The love in me salutes the love in you.

Highly Recommend

In these crazy times of global terrorism and election season chaos, Marianne Williamson's latest book is a salve to the soul.

It is amazing to me how she always seems to release a book on a topic that is most needed by the collective unconscious at that moment in history.

I've listened to this book over and over since I've received it. I even listen to it as I drift off to sleep. Marianne's voice and words are like the most beautiful lullaby .... Even when dealing with difficult subject matter.

If you've ever had a big loss or heartbreak, you are going to want to get this book.

Find inspiration in her words, enjoy comfort in her voice.

This may be my favorite book for working through difficult times. When your heart is broken, for any number of reasons, this book will help you through it. Marianne's voice is gentle and compassionate, offering the hug you may need. Her message is profound and provides hope and guidance in handling the litany of negative emotions you may be feeling. When I need solace, I turn to Marianne. I surrender to the power greater than me and relax into the embrace of her soothing words.

Excellent As Expected

As with all her books the give you more insight, spiritually uplift you, and help you get through this journey we call life. Kudos to Marianne for once again reminding us Who we are & Where we came from. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this book

Cathartic awakening!

At the beginning being confronted with my reality, my óptions and decisions was hard. However, if I want to steer my ship I must do it differently now. I am letting go of all those thoughts, hurts and unforgiving ways that have kept me anchored to the past. Forgiving and letting go is hard. But I refuse to hurt myself any longer. I am free to be me, love me... now I am free to see the real you and love you. Marianne's book was inspired from above. I highly recommend it.

Moving, transforming and inspiring

If you could sum up Tears to Triumph in three words, what would they be?

Moving, Transforming, Inspiring

What was one of the most memorable moments of Tears to Triumph?

The moment when Williamson describes the power of empathy.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No, I listened to this book over time, while walking, doing every day errands and at night. I soaked it in over a few days, not all at once. I found it helpful to meditate on the teachings.

Any additional comments?

This book helped me so much to make sense of suffering, at a really challenging time in my life. I now feel equipped to face future challenges powerfully and without being weighed down into inaction.
