Un puente a la realidad by 11882908|Sergi Torres book cover

📘 Un puente a la realidad

"El mensaje de Sergi Torres es sencillo y radical al mismo tiempo: el mundo que percibimos no existe como tal. La realidad es amor infinito y la vida entera está diseñada para abrirnos los ojos a esa verdad. En esta obra, Sergi se apoya en el método "Un Curso de Milagros" para guiarnos a un nuevo espacio mental situado más allá de nuestras opiniones y creencias. Una región donde la conciencia deja de replegarse sobre sí misma para expandirse con el universo. Una mente plena, abarcadora y eterna en la que no cabe el sufrimiento, la tristeza ni la soledad, porque es pura dicha y belleza."--from publisher's website
