    The Bible - because everyone deep down mocks it, so they don't get as much out of it as someone who knew nothing about it would. :D Funny how that works. It covers spirituality more than enough.

    Be Here Now by Ram Dass.
    Yoga Of Truth by Peter Marchand.

    Edit: I don't like to talk too much about these books because I will not be able to make them justice. I will just leave them as suggestions for people who are looking for good stuff to read.

    The only book I've read on spirituality/self-help that has had a profound effect on me.
    It was incredibly insightful, realistic, and hilarious. Three of my favorite combinations!

    Sounds interesting, I've checked them online and will take a look at them in more detail. I totally understand your sentiment for not being able to make them justice :)
