Pallamary will be signing copies of Spirit Matters on Saturday May 31st at 1:00 pm. at table 12 at the Body, Mind, Spirit; Religion Salute at the BookExpo America 2008 at the Los Angeles Convention Center, where Spirit Matters will be featured in the BEA’s New Title Showcase.

“Spirit touches us in every moment of our existence; only most of us are caught up in the dramas that we have created in our lives, blinding us to a reality far greater than anything we can imagine with our rational minds,” says Pallamary. “It is simply a matter of awareness.”
Pallamary’s other books include The Small Dark Room Of The Soul, A Short Walk To The Other Side, and Land Without Evil.
