WHAT OTHERSARE SAYING ABOUT
SEDUCED BY CONSCIOUSNESS
Jack Pranskys new book, Seducedby Consciousness, defies description! Part personal memoir, it reveals hislife and experiences and those of his friends, relatives and clients in such arevealing, raw and honest manner, it brought me to tears! Although I workedwith Sydney Banks for many years in the early 70s, I have never heard or readof anyone who understands the Three Principles in a more clear, direct andhelpful manner. What I loved most about Seduced by Consciousness is thatin the different aspects of consciousness the author always connects theseevents to the ultimate reality of our inner selves, making it, in a way, a bookon the spiritual life. The book made me think about the events of my own lifein all kinds of crazy and new ways, after reading Jacks insights andexperiences. I learned more about myself from this book than anything Ive readin years. Jacks writing seduces us into wandering down a trail beside himuntil we realize, Its ME hes talking about! I know I will be reading thispowerful book again and again.

Exquisite Mind
As difficult as it is to put formaround the formless, Dr. Jack Pransky has done this masterfully once again inSeduced by Consciousness. I have used his books in my classes for over 20 yearsbecause his writing engages students on a deep and authentic level, touchingtheir hearts and heads. In this book, Jack is willing to reveal himself in avery personal manner. Speaking straight from his heart, and using his personalexperiences, he makes himself vulnerable to all as he shares intimate detailsof his own struggles in life. He articulates a deep understanding of the ThreePrinciples in common, understandable language that feels like a friend talkingto us, using words that awaken something inside us that we recognize as truth.Reading it I came away feeling the freedom that we are, truly radiant,resilient beings, blessed by the gift of the Three Principles.
