Hidden in your body is a set of thirty-five divine objects that represent aspects of God; think of them as a vocabulary to describe your soul。 They can help you explore your own perfect nature。 With roots in Platonic philosophy and Sufi metaphysics， these eternal body-forms were discovered forty years ago and are only now being shared with the world。 They don't just provide knowledge and even wisdom; they also grant immediate and sustained relief from everyday suffering。 Spiritual coach and writer Neal Allen describes the discovery， the body-forms themselves， and gives step-by-step instructions for encountering them yourself。 His wife， the novelist and memoirist Anne Lamott， contributes a sweet foreword that chronicles her encounter with a body-form on their first date。
