Do you roll your eyes at Be positive! Be happy! and Just let it go!? Are you tired of the Universe being responsible for everything? Feel like a failure because you can’t manifest everything you want in an afternoon? Don’t worry, you’re not crazy. You may just be wriggling free from the hypnotic grip of spiritual bullshit. And fair play to you. It can be strangely compelling. The truth is that the spiritual path is as nuanced and frustrating as it is beautiful and fulfilling.

Join life-long spiritual seeker (and finder) Sue Fitzmaurice as she wades valiantly through a monumental pile of it in search of answers. Packed with insight and more than a few belly laughs, let The Smart Seeker’s Guide to Spiritual Bullshit be your life raft and guide. Dear Seeker, sanity lies within.

The Smart Seeker's Guide to Spiritual Bullshit Reviews

  • Daniel Linden

    Hysterical, but I think she was actually serious...

    First thing, it's not all that well written. She's not a professional writer, she's a professional BS'er. The second thing is - and I'm not exactly certain how to put this - is that I think this might be the first book ever written on enlightenment, and mastership, and spiritual relativism written in first person. Hah!!! Seriously!
    I, I, I, me, me, me, it could easily be the most egocentric, arrogant, narcissistic book on enlightenment ever written. Now you see why I'm confused as to whether it's actually humor or not...

    Many important ideas to consider

    I recommend this book for any spiritual seeker. I've experienced a lot of the be mentioned in the book and have been thinking of ways to make sure I don't propagate it. I think this book is especially important now, in a time when some in the spiritual community gravitate towards anti-science and and dehumanizing beliefs. It is an easy read that encompasses many spiritual paths. And it's a book I want to consult and reflect upon further.

  • D.G. Kaye

    I wouldn't rate this on Amazon because I don't like giving bad reviews. Cynical and far from enlightening is all I'll say here. Appropriate title.

  • Renetta Neal

    I enjoyed Sue's down to earth speak in this book that had me feeling affirmed about my constantly changing, contradictory beliefs. How wonderful to see in written words that we don't have to have one belief or to follow dogma although I kind of thought that it was empowering to read it and so glad you wrote this little treasure Sue Fitzmaurice

  • Liza Holland

    Excellent read.

    This was a book that really resonated with me. It is true to the experience, while calling out the human crap that you encounter along the way.

  • Zach B

    This “book” reads more like a ranting blog post that got out of control than it does a helpful guide for “smart seekers.” While there are some nuggets worth considering, the author fails to deliver her wisdom (read: opinions based on anecdotal evidence in most cases) in a supported way that offers the reader a foundation to explore her points with any meaningful depth. Halfway through this short collection of grievances, the book becomes a slog.
