The Surrender Experiment: My Journey Into Life’s Perfection

Michael A. Singer, author of The Untethered Soul, tells the extraordinary story of what happened when, after a deep spiritual awakening, he decided to let go of his personal preferences and simply let life call the shots.

As Singer takes you on this great experiment and journey into life’s perfection, the events that transpire will both challenge your deepest assumptions about life and inspire you to look at your own life in a radically different way.

Spirituality is meant to bring about harmony and peace. But the diversity of our philosophies, beliefs, concepts, and views about the soul often leads to confusion.

To reconcile the noise that clouds spirituality, Michael Singer combines accounts of his own life journey to enlightenment – from his years as a hippie-loner to his success as a computer program engineer to his work in spiritual and humanitarian efforts – with lessons on how to put aside conflicting beliefs, let go of worries, and transform misdirected desires.

Singer provides a road map to a new way of living not in the moment, but to exist in a state of perpetual happiness.

Quotes of Michael A. Singer:

– “Having an adventure is sometimes just a matter of going out and allowing things to happen in a strange and amazing new environment—not so much a physical challenge as a psychic one.”

– “People travel to faraway places to watch, in fascination, the kind of people they ignore at home.”

– “The value of your travels does not hinge on how many stamps you have in your passport when you get home — and the slow nuanced experience of a single country is always better than the hurried, superficial experience of forty countries.”
