Toward the Light

The 104 reflections featured in this collection represent the observations of Carl Japikse issued during the second year of his column, Above the Mean.

Each piece is a window into a higher perspective on human living, from politics to international events to education, laughter, the arts, and popular songs and movies. The title of the book captures the goal of Mr. Japikse s thinking, to discover the source of light that is meant to guide human thinking. These mini-essays introduce us to the worlds of spirit and their close connection with daily life. They reveal how important a spiritual perspective on life truly is.
