Excerpts from reviews:
• “A most valuable and useful reference work for all students of spirituality and the esoteric traditions of psycho-spiritual development...Gives concise definitions of terms used in Theosophy, Anthroposophy, Esoteric Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism, Kabalah, astrology, occultism, and various schools of yoga, as well as many 20th century formulations of spiritual teachings, practices, and psycho-therapies...All students of psycho-spiritual growth and esoteric lore are indebted to the Reverend Carol Parrish for this richly informative reference source.” — Ralph Metzner, Ph.D., Psychotherapist, teacher, and best-selling author of Maps of Consciousness, Opening to Inner Light, and The Unfolding Self.
  
  
• “Author Parrish-Harra has created what amounts to a new form of faith: a religion of religions, collecting all terms related to the Good. Radiesthesia: ‘The art and science of the pendulum.’ Swastika: ‘A symbol used in both East and West for the cyclic flow of time and energy.’ Book of Urantia: ‘Extensive channeled material about the development of the universe and humanity.’ More than a dictionary–a teacher, a guide, an inner movement into the plenitude. Marvelous.” – From The Book Reader, Spring/Summer 2002
  
  
• “A thorough, accurate, and highly useful dictionary which fills a longtime need. Rev. Parrish-Harra deserves our warm praise.” – Frank C. Tribbe, Author, lecturer, and journal editor of Spiritual Frontiers
  
  
• “As a student of Rev. Parrish-Harra’s for many years and a graduate of Sancta Sophia Seminary, I have had the luxury of attending Carol’s classes, working with her, and benefiting time and again from the wisdom which flows through her. I am very please that she has taken the time to actually write down her uncommon insights–from A to Z–into esoteric spirituality, and put them into this masterful dictionary. I think you will find it to be an armchair companion that you will use again and again for years to come. This encyclopedic work covers everything from Abstract Mind and Agni Yoga to Zodiacal Archangel and Zoroastrianism. It brings to light the meaning behind modern concepts such as New Age, Harmonic Convergence, and Color Therapy. It defines little-understood healing techniques such as Reiki, Acupuncture, and Psychic Surgery. – from a review by Rev. Katie Ann Yarbrough
  
  
• “This handy compendium fills a long-time need for a thorough, useful and highly accurate spiritual reference book. It will be a valuable armchair companion for one’s lifelong quest. No other reference book today provides the clarity and depth of insight into the timeless wisdom teachings, going beyond intellectual understanding to touch the innermost heart and soul.” – from review by Thomas N. Thompson, Ph.D.
  
  
• “Harra provides symbology with her definitions, such as the symbol for the Quabbala (spelled various ways) and Quetzalcoatl. I couldn’t have spelled the latter without a dictionary! She gives the planetary symbology so that the next time an astrologer throws all those circles and squiggles at me I won’t feel so intimidated! The Celestial Hierarchies are explained as are the Four Mighty Archangels. This book is as if Colombus was exploring the whole world again and finding brand new continents.” –from review by Marie Friend
