The day I hiked up Crow Hill with Madis Senner watching him use his dowsing rods to document how large windmills interfere with the life force and cause debilitating negative blockages that could have very real negative influences on our environment, I realized that I was in the presence of an original thinker and a very spiritual soul.In The Way Home: Making Heaven on Earth, Mr. Senner has written an incisive critique of our materialistic society, an original guide to understanding the spiritual world, and a practical how-to manual for those who journey on the path to true enlightenment.In addition to drawing from the wisdom of Eastern and Christian thinkers, Senner explores the spiritual beliefs of the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) prophet the Peacemaker in order to demonstrate that the way to a better world is through individual spiritual salvation.Senner's inherent optimism is nowhere more apparent than in his claim that good thoughts are like seeds which if planted by a relatively small number of enlightened people can grow exponentially, positively effecting others and the earth.Whether he is criticizing the false prophets of science and the marketplace, describing the varying planes of existence, or giving tips on when and where prayer can be used to help heal ourselves and the world, Senner writes with an informed good humor and clarity that both educates and entertains.Ira Glunts, Reference Librarian and Political Blogger
