Jeffrey Armstrong has drawn the seeds of this new vision from the sacred teachings of India and the Far East, and has masterfully compiled them into a complete system of lifestyle tools which include personal relationship skills, spiritual knowledge and health and healing practices. His books, tapes and CDs will not only expand your consciousness in areas of everyday life, but will accelerate your ongoing spiritual journey.
