**Reviews**

"It must have been providence that directed Joel Morwood to dig in the right place, for he struck a lode of pure gold, as wide (comprehensive) as it is deep (profound). What he mined from that lode is a spiritual treasure." — **Huston Smith** , author of *The World's Religions: Our Great Wisdom Traditions*

" *The Way of Selflessness* is a very fine introduction to, and overview of, the spiritual path. It is clear and accessible for newcomers, but even more impressive is the way that Morwood shows the relationship among different traditions and practices. It also sparkles with little-known quotations from the great mystics." — **David Loy** , author of *Money, Sex, War, Karma: Notes for a Buddhist Revolution*
