I found this book exceptionally enlightening - it’s content is evocative and incredibly informative about the authors life, experiences and his spiritual expansion on Becoming A Sun. It’s title is challenging - yet makes you realise the importance of radiating all you have come here to be and to be seen doing, ever expanding your rays of light on all you have to share with the world.
David Karchere is a powerful writer bringing the reader right into alignment with his profound insights on spiritual self evolvement.
The poetry allows you to be taken on journeys that colour the heart and mind with descriptive adventures - which lead you into another well of self discovery and places where visionary expansion is a meditation in it self.
Thank You David Karchere for your concept and creativity of Becming A Sun ... I will explode my light, now ablaze and burn with the passionate presence I was born in flesh to be.
Keep writing, your words are a powerhouse of Light the world needs to Read.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Manual for True Self-DevelopmentReviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 5 February 2019

Presented with humility, the author creates a magical scenario that I'm utilising to develop my true self. Karchere used quotes from Roosevelt to Ram Dass but the essence comes across as his own experience. The section about the emotions, grief etc is most enlightening, and the poetry and illustrations allow a seamless reading in sections for me. In my experience it is not a rehash of human nature or an improvement of it, rather an invitation to have an on-going spiritual experience. It is not arrogant or promoting the author. I would have preferred a title such as "Revealing your Sun" as the content leans to the idea that we are Suns already. However a 5 star experience for years of referring to I sense. Thank you.

Reading David’s book gave me an experience of ‘filling my cup to overflowing’! This book will quench your thirst for your own primal knowing and have you dipping back in for deeper meaning. By touching on his personal spiritual journey at times throughout the book, David gives the reader a feeling of spending a series of tea-times with him, in which there are deep meaningful conversations. There are opportunities in each chapter for readers to explore and experience being a sun in their own lives and to feel the value of that in the global and universal sense. David has dappled his book with the sunshine of poetry which is beautiful and soulful.

Becoming a Sun is a guideline for how to live our lives to the fullest - from the beginning it becomes clear what is truly important in how we can unfold the rest of our lives on this planet.
"What your world, and the people in it, need most from you is for you to be a sun. They need your warmth. Your ability to offer your care for their well-being. Your ability to offer blessing. Nothing imposed. Nothing affected. Just the abiding spirit of love, constant in your heart of hearts."
Becoming a Sun shows us how to make our changes day by day - moment by moment from the heart. Choosing to read and learn from this book and this process - is a gift to ones own unfolding.
I highly recommend this book to all Searchers - wherever you are in your own life change.

So often an inspirational book requires you to search for the gold. Not true in Becoming a Sun. I found the personal stories, the poetry and the themes extremely relevant. Even if I was familiar with the idea being presented something deep within me was stirred to greater knowing and I felt intimately connected to the truth of who I am and how I can see that in others.
There is nothing like simple recipes for transformation. I didn't have to read the whole book to get the big idea. It was delivered on every page accessible to my mind and heart.
This book was quite a gift to myself.

I am using this book for a book study with several of my spiritual friends. We are all loving the book and its fresh approach to many common spiritual themes. I have convinced several ministers to buy the book based on my comments and praise. David is the essence of creativity as he presents the material and ideas in prose, poems, drawings, and personal stories. I am on my third reading and I keep seeing more connections and gaining new insights with each pass through the book. This book is truly a gift to humanaity!

I've read a lot of spiritual/self-help books (no need to judge me...). This one ranks up with the better ones. It's an easy read, you might even say a pleasant read, and has some original perspectives.
