Críticas:

"Cate Montana's book The E-Word says it all. I have learned, as she has, that the quiet mind is the essence of it all. The practical, mystical and spiritual truths can all be known to us. Let Cate's book guide you through the unknown to the truth."--Dr. Bernie Siegel

"The experience of being fully human is our birthright, yet is too rarely attained. Sadly, few even get to savor thinking deeply about this tremendous human potential. Most are shut out by the steep learning curve required to master the esoteric ideas that are its currency. Cate Montana has accomplished something quite rare: she makes the depths of consciousness, existence and enlightenment readily accessible, without cheapening the profound pay-off that comes with living there."--Chris Aanstoos, PhD, professor of Psychology, University of West Georgia

"An extraordinary journey of awakening, Cate Montana's insights into the ego, reflections on enlightenment and delightful humor make this a joy to read, and then read again."--William Arntz, creator of What the BLEEP Do We Know!?

"An excellent and entertaining look at the issues, challenges, and resolutions that come with the territory of awakening, Cate Montana exposes the workings of the ego and what to do about it. I highly recommend this important book to all students of spirituality. It will speed you on your path by helping you to undo the blocks and illusions that have been holding you back."--Gary Renard, bestselling author of The Disappearance of the Universe trilogy

"With wit and eloquence, Cate Montana exposes the ego's masquerading effort to convince us we are made in its image and likeness. With equal skill she holds before us the essence of our true nature--creative, free, and whole."--Michael Bernard Beckwith, author of Spiritual Liberation

"That which used to call itself Cate Montana dissolved into nothingness. Then she returned to tell the tale in The E-Word. Delightful, compelling, and profound."--Dean Radin PhD, Chief Scientist, Institute of Noetic Sciences and author The Conscious Universe, Entangled Minds, and Supernormal.

"The E-Word is brilliant, fast, fun, and straight from the hip, all at the same time answering life's eternal question, 'Who am I?' and 'Why am I here?' Page after page my heart went 'Aha!' and then I'd snort with a sudden burst of laughter. I love this book. Very clear and on target!"--Dr. Darren Weissman, author The Heart of the Matter and creator of the LifeLine Technique(R)

"Cate Montana's The E-Word is like nothing I've ever read before. A radical and inspiring guide on how to get clear about the ego and get on with what matters, this book goes where most don't, won't or can't go. If you're really ready to shed the last layers of your identity onion and step into your true self, living life in a meaningful and profound way, this book will get you there."--Betsy Chasse, author Tipping Sacred Cows and co-creator What the Bleep Do We Know!?

"Cate Montana has given us the gift of a touching personal story of her own life unfolding like a flower. Our own lives are nourished in reading it."--Allan Combs, PhD., author of Synchronicity: In the Eyes of Science, Myth, and the Trickster, Dir. California Institute of Integral Studies

"The missing manual for our messy lives, Cate Montana writes about the ego from deeply lived experience and with truckloads of heart and good humor. The E-Word is a book I will keep on my nightstand for a long time."--John Tintera, Executive Director, TXT.buzz

Reseña del editor:

What do you get when you combine Eckhart Tolle and Anne Lamott? A compassionately humorous yet kick-ass, clear-eyed account of overcoming the ego.

Cate Montana, top network TV sports editor, woke up to the realization that her successful career-driven existence delivered zero happiness and fulfillment. Determined to find both, she set off on what would become a thirty-year spiritual quest, and this is what she discovered: We’re not who we think we are. The ego is an illusion and a trap and only when we recognize the ego for what it is can we be truly, outrageously free.

Beautifully written and fast-paced, The E-Word strips the ego bare in highly entertaining, relatable ways, revealing our erroneous beliefs about “self” and how even common self-improvement processes and techniques actually send us on a wild goose chase away from the very happiness, fulfillment, and wisdom we seek. The book also reveals how the ego co-opts religion and spirituality, dangling enlightenment in front of us as a prize to be achieved rather than the natural flowering of the Great Mind within that shows up after the ego has been put in its place and a vaster consciousness revealed.

A book of liberation and ecstasy, The E-Word lucidly explains how the ego is created, how it thinks, and how its limited mindset can be expanded—not inflated—into a joyous transpersonal perspective that makes isolation, fear and insecurity bad dreams of the past. Stuffed with electrifying insights, funny stories and transformative meditations and exercises,The E-Word is the ultimate how-to guide for discovering the “real you” within.
