(More customer reviews)This is an extraordinary story. Eileen Caddy grew up in a time and circumstance when women were not self-reliant and their voices not heard. Eileen grew up expecting to be a traditional wife and mother. When she fell in love at the age of 35, she received inner guidance telling her "be at peace and know that I have a great work for you." For the rest of her life she received inner guidance on her personal growth and for the community which she founded. Her guidance led her away from her first family, down an unpredictable path of hardship doing God's work. She and her partner Peter with some friends founded the Findhorn Foundation, today an internationally renowned spiritual community, education center and ecovillage. In this book she shares how she learned to follow the inner voice, find her own worth, and have unconditional love. It is a story of miracles, both personal and public, told with honesty and courage and love. Even though the story of receiving direct revelation is unusual and almost unbelievable, Eileen's down-to-earth voice conveys that everyone has access to an inner source of strength and inspiration, it doesn't matter what we call it. I highly recommend it for everyone seeking inspiration for their own path.

Flight into Freedom and Beyond: The Autobiography of the Co-Founder of the Findhorn CommunityThis is an extraordinary story told by an ordinary woman. Eileen Caddy is known worldwide as one of the three founders of the Findhorn Foundation in the north of Scotland. The books that have flowed from her inspiration have drawn multitudes to the Findhorn Community.In this new, expanded edition of her autobiography, Eileen updates her story to record the events -- and emotions -- of the past fifteen years. She emerges as a powerful elderwoman who frees herself from the aura of her charismatic ex-husband Peter whom she still loves. In doing so, she learns the true nature of forgiveness, overcoming the issues of jealousy, hatred and doubt involved in the break-up of a marriage for which she had, under God's guidance, sacrificed everything. Readers will be struck by the analogy with the biblical Job, how someone who has lost everything, wealth, position, family, can yet have them restored by God. In her own person, Eileen Caddy, divinely ordinary as she describes herself, has pushed the limits of the ordinary person's experience to the very borders of the Kingdom of God.Eileen Caddy was recognized as one of the major spiritual teachers of our times on the TV programme "The God List".
