This life is such a mystery. At least it feels that way. There's so much to figure out, so much to know about, so much to understand. And then, when you finally do understand it, there seems to be so little to figure out, and there's no mystery at all....

I'm describing to you my own experience before and after my conversations with God. Those dialogues told me everything I needed to know about life, and helped me to understand so much of what I didn't understand. And when I put those exchanges into a book and people all over the world began reading them, life changed for many of us. The messages in what became the nine Conversations with God books had an enormous impact on millions of people in many cultures because they made everything so clear.

Perhaps predictably, I was soon asked to elaborate on that original material, to address more extensively what I had experienced, as well as what I had come to discover through my experience. I decided to take the information in the three thousand pages of my original dialogue and explore it more fully, topic by topic. The book you are now holding is a result of that decision.

This text is a re-issue of material that I published more than a decade ago, in three separate volumes. I believe that information to be seminal, pivotal, and vital to any real understanding of how to apply the wisdom in Conversations with God to our everyday lives. I have brought the material together under one cover here because, while the three original small volumes were helpful, to be sure, I see on reflection that taken together they lay out an entire course for living well; first, for living harmoniously and lovingly with others in our immediate circle, then with ourselves and our work, and finally, with the World Entire.

If ever there was a time for such a course to be laid, this would be it. The world is hovering on the brink of its next major evolutionary convulsiona giving birth, as futurist Barbara Marx Hubbard would put ita full-scale creation of a new way of being human. And while I don't consider myself to be an expert on sociological or spiritual development within our species, I do believe the guidelines offered here to be among the most useful, the most practical, and the most effective tools that anyone could ever find for producing a better life. I feel that way because I am not the source of these guidelines. The messages here emerge solely from the Conversations with God dialogues and I consider those exchanges to have been direct interactions with the Divine.

You do not have to agree with me on that point, however. As I have said often in the past, it is not necessary to believe that I spoke directly with God (we are all doing this every day, by the way) in order to gain benefit from this material. All that is required is an open mind and a willingness to simply see if the ideas here have any value. Use them, test them out, in on the-ground situations.

That's what I invite you to do. I encourage you to take a look at what's being said here about the three aspects of our livesrelationships, livelihood, and our interactions with the world at largeand see for yourself if anything here makes sense; if
