Everyone's a Guru

Members of the metaphysical community have long been familiar with the saying, "If you need a teacher, one will arrive." In this informative book, Debra J. Rigas distinguishes between teachers and gurus, offering herself as a kind and compassionate guide through the myriad of occult, metaphysical, and spiritual disciplines available to today's seekers.

Currently an author, screenwriter, and writing coach, Rigas also has been a healer and a caregiver who has traveled extensively. She has learned from her life, and her animated narrative reflects the varied insights of an individual who has been drawn to spirituality since her early youth. Peppered with her copious experiences and knowledge of spiritual, psychic, and physical healing methods, the book also provides capsule descriptions of many of them, enabling newcomers to the terrain to become acquainted with their contents.

Even more important, Rigas does not encourage her readers to abdicate responsibility for their own lives to dive into someone else's reality. Instead, she recommends the use of discernment and cautiousness, illustrating the difference between groups and teachers with integrity and honor from fraudulent charlatans who try to separate acolytes from their money and personal freedom. In addition, Rigas offers and defines several meditative techniques, which fit seamlessly into the text.
