Hippiebanker: Bringing Peace, Love and Spirituality to the Workplace by Camille Sacco is a 12-week guide book about learning how to become a “spiritual activist” by incorporating spirituality into the workplace. Camille begins with an introductory note: “We don’t need to quit our corporate jobs, move away and start an organic farm to be relevant. We can change the world right from our desk at work.” The author proposes a paradigmatic approach; the first lesson of the Five Sutras of the Aquarian Age to the workplace, is to be still and listen, and other lessons like let someone else shine, which is a participatory approach. Happy employees equals happy customers equals better bottom line.

Hippiebanker: Bringing Peace, Love and Spirituality to the Workplace by Camille Sacco approaches the question of adding spirituality to the workplace from an angle that is not purely spiritual, but adapting such ideas to actual implementation. To make dreams or visions into true liberation, attempt to apply the Sutras to the workplace and continue to learn quite a bit from practicing them, she says. And when people start to notice a difference in you and say things like, “You’ve changed.” Tell them, "I didn’t change. I just woke up!" However, this book has one pitfall common to other abstract solutions to our problems. If one is successful in his effort, the offered suggestions are very good; but if one experiences failure, the suggestions wouldn’t have been followed in letter and in spirit.
