Best-selling self-help author Dave Richo shows how to recognize  this help that's all around us—Grace—and how to access it.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e      Grace is  the term Dave Richo uses to describe any of those events in which help  comes your way unexpectedly: when the solution to a perplexing problem  just suddenly pops into your head; when you suddenly find the strength  to rise to an occasion you didn't think you could endure;  when the next  phase in your spiritual path becomes plain as day. Moments of Grace  usually come as surprises, but, Richo shows, we can learn to expect  them—for Grace is a resource any of us can access. He begins by showing  where to look to recognize the Grace that surrounds you: in nature, in  religion\/spirituality, in relationships, in yourself. He then provides  practical exercises for learning how to manifest Grace in your life--to  recognize and claim the help the universe is constantly offering you.Introduction\u003cbr\u003e1 What is Grace?\u003cbr\u003e How Do We Know it is Grace?\u003cbr\u003e Grace and Graces\u003cbr\u003e Three Arrivals of Grace\u003cbr\u003e What Is Transcendence?\u003cbr\u003e The More That We Are\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 2 How Effort Fits In\u003cbr\u003e Too Much\u003cbr\u003e Not Enough\u003cbr\u003e Does Merit Matter?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 3 Destiny, Fate, and Luck\u003cbr\u003e Destiny\u003cbr\u003e Fate\u003cbr\u003e Luck\u003cbr\u003e After Luck, What?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 4 The Gift of Synchronicity\u003cbr\u003e Trusting Opportunities\u003cbr\u003e Choice and Chance\u003cbr\u003e When Synchronicity Comes as Inspiration\u003cbr\u003e Calling and Coincidence\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e5 Grace in the Feminine\u003cbr\u003eThe Materialist Questions\u003cbr\u003e A More-Inclusive Alternative\u003cbr\u003e Three Realities\u003cbr\u003e The Shadow of the Feminine\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 6 Graces on the Dark Paths\u003cbr\u003e Calamity\u003cbr\u003e Void and Chaos\u003cbr\u003e In the Face of Evil\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 7 Grace in Religion\u003cbr\u003e Ancient Religion\u003cbr\u003e Other Traditions\u003cbr\u003e A Christian Perspective\u003cbr\u003e Gift , State, and Means of Transformation\u003cbr\u003e Patriarchy and Limits\u003cbr\u003e Two Helpful Images\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 8 Grace in Buddhism\u003cbr\u003e Resources on the Buddhist Path\u003cbr\u003e The Pure Land Tradition\u003cbr\u003e Power From Self, Power from Other\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 9 Grace in Nature\u003cbr\u003e Flow and Field\u003cbr\u003e Time and Space\u003cbr\u003e Comfort in Nature\u003cbr\u003e Our Natural-Spiritual Challenge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 10 The Graces in Ourselves\u003cbr\u003e The Gift in Our Inadequacies\u003cbr\u003e More Than Self-Help\u003cbr\u003e How Transformation Happens\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 11 Graces in Relationships\u003cbr\u003e Intimate Companions\u003cbr\u003e Discovering the Metaphor\u003cbr\u003e When Conflicts Arise\u003cbr\u003e The Graces of Mature Love in a Relationship\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 12 Spiritual Practices that Help Us Open to Grace\u003cbr\u003e Showing Gratitude\u003cbr\u003e Accepting the Givens of Life\u003cbr\u003e Cultivating Serenity, Courage, and Wisdom\u003cbr\u003e Letting Go of Self-Centeredness\u003cbr\u003e Following The Eightfold Path\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Epilogue: The Grace in Being Human\u003cbr\u003e About the Author“This is a \u003ci\u003egood \u003c\/i\u003ebook—that is, filled with goodness, kindness,  and wisdom.
