Publisher Description: In olden days, Native American elders sat around a fire at night and they would pick one word. Each individual in the circle would speak about everything that they knew about that word. When everyone had finished, they all had a true understanding that was not there before. The same process happens every night of the week, in A.A. meetings held in church basements all over the world. I have read many books written by members of Alcoholics Anonymous and I believe that none have captured the true mystic experience that so many of us, who have been cured of our insanity, have experienced. In each piece, the author, who has chosen to remain anonymous, has attempted to capture the true mystic wisdom of Alcoholics Anonymous, a wisdom that through time and the experience of its members has become a living breathing entity of its own. This book is a hilarious collection of parables and true personal stories that can be used for everyday teaching within the rooms of AA. The teachings in these selections are self-explanatory and timeless, and in accordance with AA principals are non-denominational. Each piece is written simply so that beginners to early recovery can understand them, but they will also appeal to more experienced members of the recovery community |
