Olga Bogdashina argues persuasively that, contrary to popular belief, spirituality plays a vital role in the lives of many people with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Drawing on interdisciplinary research from fields as diverse as psychology, philosophy, anthropology, linguistics, neuroscience and religion, as well as first-hand experiences of people on the spectrum, she shows how people with ASD experience their inner worlds and sense of self, and how this shapes the spiritual dimension of their lives and vice versa. She presents a coherent framework for understanding the routes of spiritual development and 'spiritual giftedness' within this group, offering insights that will inform understanding of how to support and nurture spiritual wellbeing in people with ASDs. This book gives a voice to both verbal and non-verbal individuals on the autism spectrum whose spiritual experiences, though often unconventional, are meaningful and profound. It is essential reading for all those interested in the spiritual wellbeing of this group, including pastoral carers and counsellors, ministers of religion, spiritual leaders, parents and carers and individuals on the autism spectrum.

The summer of 2005 was the most important time in my life as I accepted Jesus into my heart as my Lord and Savior. June 26, 2007, the birth of my only child, Hunter, was the second best day of my life. He was thriving neuro-typically, simply thriving the first 15 months of his life. Since no adequate warning labels were provided detailing potential neurological side effects, thinking I was doing best for my child, I vaccinated my son according to the childhood vaccination schedule. After receiving the mandated MMR, then flu shot, and DTaP vaccination from September 2008 December 2008; Hunter started to regress slowly at first, but regress. In the span of a year, my son went from a happy, engaging, social child, to a child trapped in his own little world. I was nothing short of hysterical, confused and angry. I was desperate for answers as to causation and avenues of recovery for Hunter s sudden onslaught of neurological challenges. Nothing made sense to me as I was led to therapies only to manage his sudden affliction with autism. I was broken, completely broken and cried out to God endlessly. In His timing, not mine, He led me on a physical healing journey for my son that would birth a spiritual growth in me. He revealed to me the truth as to what happened to Hunter, step-by-step, on a path that I never knew existed; optimal health healing from the inside out. If I knew then, what I know now, Hunter s first seven years of life has a different outcome. It is my heartfelt prayer that my extensive research will guide you to embrace essential lifestyle changes required to be prepared, informed and empowered for the betterment of your child. Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.

This book takes you on a journey through the life and the mind of someone who accomplished what seems impossible for most people with an Autism Spectrum Disorder. It takes a rather intimate look at what makes Dr. Suglia tick and how he thinks. At the same time, practical advice is offered for helping challenged individuals to cope and to develop skills that can help them learn and develop. In the final chapters of the book, we examine spiritual yet not religious principles and teachings that Dr. Suglia has come to rely on as a source of healing and managing the stressors of life. Under the guidance of spiritual teachers, his journey continues through much geographical and social upheaval as the spiritual aspects of life give him an inner strength uncommon to most people with autism. Dr. Suglia offers advice to fellow people on the autism spectrum, helping them to discover life through an objective viewpoint while keeping in mind that there is a "bigger picture" to be explored.

Everyone who seeks a more compassionate and wise life will benefit from this wonderful, insightful, and beautiful book. It is a very short step from understanding autism and the God connection to understanding you and the God Connection. ---Gary Zukav, author of The Seat of the Soul and The Dancing Wu Li Master "Autism and the God Connection is a compelling, powerful and thought-provoking book. Mr. Stillman describes the discoveries that unfold from conversations that he has with people that have a difficult time with conventional communication. He is able to see, feel and hear people from different perspectives." --Nicki Fischer, executive director, publisher and editor, The Autism Perspective Magazine Autism impacts one out of every 166 children--ten times higher than just ten years ago. Despite the international scrambling of scientists to provide an explanation, there remains no single known cause for the rise in autism. Autism and the God Connection views autism through a spiritual prism, unlocking its hidden meaning. Through countless interviews William Stillman documents extraordinary examples of spiritual giftedness. Autism and the God Connection boldly challenges our traditionally held beliefs about people with disabilities. Readers looking for hope, inspiration and a deeper understanding of their loved ones will appreciate the affirming anecdotes of ordinary families.

Many individuals with autism are highly intelligent and gifted, but some are effectively imprisoned in their bodies and unable to communicate verbally. However, developments in technology have enabled autistic people to transmit their thoughts directly. In this true account, three autistic people, two of them brothers, speak via the method of "facilitated communication," with the aid of a computer keypad. What is conveyed are not just everyday thoughts and experiences, but surprising and sometimes shattering spiritual and metaphysical perceptions. The conversations reveal remarkable clairvoyant gifts, such as the ability to read other people's thoughts, to see past lives, and to communicate with supernatural entities. The insights in this book provide an astonishing glimpse into the way some people with autism appear to experience the world, and how their experiences can enrich our own.

It is estimated that every 20 minutes a child is diagnosed with autism. No one knows why cases of autism are increasing worldwide.

In this intriguing book, you will learn: How "impossible" gifts such as mind control and speaking unknown languages could be occurring in some people with autism. How parents can distinguish their child's spiritual interactions from behavior that might be mislabeled as hallucinatory—and unduly medicated. How the wisdom of many people with autism may help us to prepare for future hardships and an impending renaissance of civility, respect, and compassion.

Defining spirituality as the spirit with which we confront concrete reality, this is the first book to focus on the spirituality of people with autism spectrum disorders. Drawing on verbal and non-verbal narratives, the author explores the individual's struggle to come to terms with his or her humanity, as well as the spirituality of those who can neither reflect upon, nor express, their own life experiences, and how this affects both them and their carers.
