Longing: A Pilgrimage to Your Quiet Power Within

74

Christopher Sansone has spent a lifetime studying the human psyche, human development, and the spirituality that is within us all. He was often left wondering, and when he found himself in what he calls ‘a state of inertia’ and was facing a rapid lifestyle change, he began to write; something he had been guided to undertake, with the result being Longing.

Understanding through his own life journey that buried deep within each one of us is a deep well of spirituality, a massive sense of longing for something undefinable; a something that is always there just out of reach, a shadow, a feeling, a sense of incompletion. But what to do about it is something he has carefully researched, discovering that we have been conditioned through the ages, the generations, to ignore this ‘longing,’ this intrinsic sense of who we are or were.

With the traditional forms of religion being on the wane and the seeking for a more deeply spiritual way of life that has been occurring for some time, Sansone believes that we are slowly learning to accept that we are more than what we have been conditioned to believe, and we are seeking a better, more individual way forward.

Longing is a road map of how to discover those missing bits of you, the spiritual core of love, joy and healing that is there, embedded in your psyche since time immemorial.

When Sansone began to author this book, some six years ago, the first words were a poem, something he had never written before. This has been placed at the end of the Introduction and encapsulates everything Longing addresses throughout the book.

If you are searching for that elusive something, Longing is the book to read, or a course to follow, which delivers an understanding of what is there to be discovered within the self. This book will help answer so many questions as to who you/we really are, as humanity moves forward into a new and powerful future.
