Review

"The Genesis Principle fulfills its titles promise by bringing the reader to the recognition of their Divine Source and all the attributes this Genesis enhances. I highly recommend this book for enjoyment as well as for its subtle wisdom." Jack Schwarz, Author of "How to Master the Art of Personal Health"

"A powerful and provocative look into just who each of us wants to be in the coming millennium."Peter Weller, Actor and Film Director

"A spiritual bombshell. Isen and Kline have created an adventure in creativity that is exciting and life-altering. I know of no other book in the literature of spiritual development that is more original, more compelling, more hopeful, or more practical: As an opportunity for personal transformation, it is miles ahead of the crowd. The Genesis Principle is a novel that uses the ancient wisdom of the Kabbalah as the touchstone for a stunning examination of the source of creativity -- our own personal creativity -- and applies it to the changes we want to bring about in ourselves for personal fulfillment, peace, and happiness. Dave Carey's story is the story of every seeker...it is our story. His journey to understanding illuminates the way for all of us toward an empowerment that we may have thought impossible, unattainable. A marvelous achievement...The Genesis Principle is also a roaring good read." Joseph Dispenza, Director, Parcells Center for Personal Transformation and author of "Live Better Longer" and "The Way of the Traveler."

"The Genesis Principle will resonate with business leaders who are seeking creative solutions to the challenges of the emerging global marketplace. The Genesis Principle provides the reader with a palette of problem-solving tools which dissolves the limitations often encountered in today's workplace. By showing us a way to retool our thinking, Hal Isen and Peter Kline invigorate us with the ability to reinvent ourselves and the institutions where we work." Terrence Coffman, Pres., Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design

When I first read the manuscript of The Genesis Principle for possible endorsement, I reported to the publisher that I was "absolutely captivated". You see, authors Hal Isen and Peter Kline have given us a novel, but not a work of fiction. The Genesis Principle is, instead, a book of truths and guidance for a better life. The protagonist, Dave Carey, is in a marriage that is now devoid of passion, and perhaps even love. He has no time for it, devoting himself to his company, a company that has just been sold, and whos new owner is intent on destroying it along with the employees, including Dave. All this in the name of the mighty bottom line. Sound familiar? Worse yet, Dave is spiritually bankrupt! He reacquaints with a high school chum who, over the years, learned the secrets of the Genesis Principle, the 4-step path of creation and "...a radical, fundamental shift in your experience of who you are and what you can accomplish." Mssrs Isen and Kline write in a cant-put-it-down style about insights and epiphanies that go back to the Jewish mystical tradition of Kabbalah. The Genesis Principle shows us how to know who we really are; to unveil our current life principle; to unburden ourselves of all the ideals, myths and beliefs that keep us stagnant; to create a new life principle; and to learn to master the practices and tools to become a creator. The Genesis Principle is an unfoldment of natural wisdom that, in this reviewers opinion, can only enhance the readers life. Authors Isen and Kline quote Sri Aurobindo, "You cannot relate to anything if you dont know it, and you cant know anything until you can become it." The Genesis Principle leads the way! -- Publisher Comments
