Spiritual Roommates: The Harmonious Cohabitation of the Spirit & Ego

By Tanya OQuinn

Spiritual Roommates: The Harmonious Cohabitation of the Spirit & Ego brings to light the 'split personalities' within us all. As we are made up of 'spirit' and 'ego', this manual defines each as well as offers enlightenment on their roles and their identifying characteristics.

The publication goes further to speak on the intention of the spirit - the 'soul purpose' - and the intention or fascination of the ego - the 'ego-desire'. It gives clarity to who we are, why we are here and how to facilitate in the development of each 'aspect' of our one being.

As many of us feel that we are simply here on Earth, living an existence of predetermination, external control and karmic influences, what we can learn is that each life-experience is just that, an 'experience', that God has granted to us in order 'to give life to our spiritual energies', all the while granting us the opportunity and ability to develop individual personalities and indulge in personal fascinations. As we honor His intention for our existence, we may also indulge in our own personal interests (that are legal, moral and hopefully rejuvenating) simultaneously.

This manual deconstructs YOU so that who you really are can be better understood, recognized and appreciated.

Tanya OQuinn

Tanya O'Quinn is the fifth of five children. She is a Pisces and very true to its natural characteristics. She is sensitive, intuitive, loyal and entertaining. And though she loves her 'alone time', she also adores spending time with family, friends and acquaintances. She views all encounters as experiences. In Junior High School, her English teacher labeled her 'the class laureate'. It was at that moment that her talent of creative writing was formerly recognized. Tanya has written numerous artist reviews while working as an Asst. Editor in the music business. She also contributed many interesting and enlightening pieces while working as Credit Specialist at a Marketing Company, which owned an online psychic company. It was here that Tanya allowed her true spiritual essence to develop. She allowed her Spirit to emerge and focused on her own personal spiritual journey. In 2004, Tanya and her friend Jay talked about communicating to their friends and loved ones the importance of self-awareness, self-love, and healing. They thought the best way to reach people were via email. Consequently, 'Circle of Spirits' was born. The 'Circle of Spirits' email messages were delivered to those seeking emotional comfort, mental clarity and spiritual enlightenment. Tanya used her Empathy - ability to feel the energies of others - and strong intuitive ability to 'take dictation' and deliver the spiritual writings to the masses. As she acknowledges, appreciates and nurtures her own divine connection to our Creator, she realizes that it is through Him that she may communicate in this way. For the past eight (8) years, she has been diligent in 'taking dictation' and has over one hundred and seventy spiritual writings to release. “Inner Peace: Soul 2 Soul Conversations, Volume One” is the first installment in a series of nine. Each intensely emotional passage is written in a manner to offer clarity, support and motivation. "God gave me the gifts of sensitivity, understanding, spiritual awareness and creative writing. It is my soul purpose to share those divine gifts with the world." ~Inner Peace~

Acknowledgement

I would first and foremost like to thank God for His love, guidance, protection, faith and support. He has influenced me to seek His existence though not through the focus on any particular religion. He motivated me to move beyond religious walls and secular teachings in order to develop a personal, unobstructed relationship with Him. Though religion is a doctrine aimed at uniting man with God, my unification was developed out of a need to know, a desire to connect, a will to explore and the confidence to accept.

Secondly, I’d like to thank my family and friends who have supported me on this
