Stories from
My Last Lifetime
From Awakening to Mastery
by Jean Tinder
BOOKWORMS: Just like those sticky musical “ear worms” that keep playing in your head, my Bookworms are the standout, thought-provoking, belief-busting, awareness-shifting reads that stick with me the most. When it comes to shining new light on the way we view life, the world, and ourselves, these are the ones I recommend first.
About The Book
“The world is waking up and, if you are reading this book, so are you. Sometimes the awakening is obvious, and sometimes the evidence is hard to find. In my experience, what you see depends on where ― and especially how ― you look.”
In Stories from My Last Lifetime, Jean Tinder traces her journey from super conservative preacher’s kid to someone who now knows who she is and why she is here.
Jean Tinder’s upbringing was unconventional, some might even say idyllic. Raised by a deeply conservative family of Seventh Day Adventist missionaries, she never attended school. When not being homeschooled by her mother, she was allowed to spend countless hours devouring books and wandering the forests and mountains around her wilderness home in the Pacific north west where she developed a deep love for nature and a close contact with Spirit.
While it’s always fascinating to read about other people’s spiritual awakenings, what makes this book a “stand-out” for me is Jean Tinder’s deeply insightful answers to many of the existential questions that typically plague those on a spiritual path, such as :
Why did we come here?
Why do we keep coming back?
What comes after Awakening?
And more… not the least of which is, why, after more than 1400 incarnations on this planet, does she now say that she is complete?
The reason the No BS Spiritual Book Club exists is to point the the spiritually curious toward books that don’t pander to the fluffy, feel-good, spiritual-ego-stroking material that’s proliferating today, but instead offer the kind of gnarly but deeply thought-provoking answers that are guaranteed to shift awareness, provoke deeper reflection, and push one further along one’s evolutionary journey.
In telling her story of awakening to her own mastery, Jean Tinder neither patronizes nor short changes her readers. There’s no self-aggrandizing in this book. On the contrary, she’s brutally honest about her frustrations, her failings, and her sometimes “slow-comings to enlightenment.” That’s my kind of spritual explorer.
If you’re serious about your spiritual growth, listen to the interview I did with Jean Tinder on my weekly radio show (download link below).
You can also watch her Face to Face With… interview about the 10 Best Spiritual Books that influenced her the most, in which she shares more of her personal journey and insights. And then read the two-chapter excerpt she’s generously provided.
As spiritual memoirs go, this one goes way beyond the average when it comes to providing the kind of information that opens up new pathways to explore.
Which is why Stories from My Last Lifetime is this month’s BOOKWORM.
