This book deals with the roots of our mistrust and the ways that we can learn to recover our lost sense of trust.

What we normally consider trust is actually a false trust, a childish, fantasy trust. This kind of false trust is dependent on how others and life treats us.

Life teaches us through the painful experiences of disappointment and betrayal how to learn a new kind of trust, a real sense of trust which comes from inside and is no longer dependent on outside events and experiences.

“The quality of genuine trustfulness is not, as we might believe it to be, dependent on other people or anything on the outside. Rather it is a deep inner experience of feeling connected to our being and to existence. Our level of genuine trustfulness, one which is not dependent on outside events, is a direct mirror of our consciousness. Genuine trustfulness is a quality which we can develop.”
