Jacob Needleman - A ​Sense of the Cosmos
"With ​this one compact statement, Jacob Needleman has forced the discussion of both science and religion in our time into a new, more mature and discriminating phase. . . . It is a way station where those who are seriously exploring the transformation of consciousness will have to stop, take thought, and perhaps re-plot their course."—Theodore Roszak "I want to strongly recommend it to every reader seriously interested in our present cultural situation."—Fritjof Capra "Needleman is unique; he is really on to something. . . . A fine book"—Harvey Cox Western science has operated for centuries on the assumption that we can understand the universe without understanding ourselves. We are just now seeking to make the necessary connection between the general laws of nature to those of our own (inner) nature. But the job won’t be done with "massive injections of the new consciousness"; we cannot democratize the sacred by cheapening its demands. "My aim in this book therefore" says Needleman, "has not been to speak of the convergence of science and spirituality, but of their separation. As in nature itself, organic unity is a reciprocal relationship between separate but interdependent entities. In human life as well, there can be no real unity except through the awareness of real divisions. One may then hope to experience the magic power of sustained awareness by itself to bring the harmony that we have until now fruitlessly attempted to impose on ourselves and on our endangered civilization." Jacob Needleman is a professor of philosophy at San Francisco State University and the author of many books, including Money and the Meaning of Life, and The American Soul. In addition to his teaching and writing, he serves as a consultant in the fields of psychology, education, medical ethics, philanthropy, and business, and has been featured on Bill Moyers’s acclaimed PBS series A World of Ideas.

Ismeretlen szerző - Beyond ​Forever
Transcending ​the boundaries of all religions, Beyond Forever unveils, explains, and diagrams in detail the definitive spiritual path enabling perpetual life existence. The truth of reincarnation is unmasked and proves to be a self creation process increasing one's existence infinitely. Many other verifiable Absolute Truths are revealed providing answers to age old questions. Death: is it our choice? Eternal life: how and why it is possible. The Universe: are we alone? What is the true path to these revelations? Whether one is a devout seeker with a deep hunger to awaken or a practitioner searching anew or aiming beyond his spiritual or religious practice Beyond Forever can help lay to rest the "Hungry Ghost" that resides deep within our longing. Review "Beyond Forever is a very impressive contribution to the growing body of literature on metaphysical studies, meditation practice, and New Age spirituality." -- The Midwest Book Review, May 1999 By defying the accepted conventional wisdom of the human life cycle, Mahan Agass presents the most challenging theme of this book: identification of the universal form of spiritual existentialism transcending the boundaries of all religions. -- Leon Rappoport, Ph.D. Extraordinary secrets, yet an astonishingly simple blueprint to help save our sanity. For those who open and allow these writings to touch their souls, their lives will never be the same. -- Nelwyn Richardson Finding the Pure Mind practice (as we have begun to call it) with its Truth, clear understanding, and teacher freed me and gave all life meaning. -- Johnathan Bhai, M.D., Pakistan I turn to "Beyond Forever" and magically a single poetic phrase or paragraph lifts the veils on my mind and with clarity I am able to let my delusions go. -- D.R. Deam It was an electrifying yet almost terrifying shock to finally see in print that which has been kept secret for so long. -- Jamyang Rilu Tuklu, Himalayas. Powerful, absorbing, revealing, compelling, intriguing, stunning, and inspiring. No other book or practice reveal what these do! You won't be disappointed. -- Barbara Childress Riveting in the way it speaks to one's very essence. Revelations of Truth open pathways within. Uplifting, and dynamic, truly a unique book that describes those things we know and feel but cannot "see." -- Neal Davidson, CEO Davidson Real Estate, Cameron, MO The teaching is so beautifully simple on a subject so profoundly complex that it is at once understandable, and yet it takes a lifetime of study to awaken and know. -- P. R. Young With the dawning of the 21st century at hand it was Truth's time to be revealed. Man now learns that his life has purpose beyond his present hollow understanding. Unveiled for the first time in this work, he learns beyond doubt or question his true and clear purpose. -- Pastor J.J. Boone, ret.

Mari Perron - Dan Odegard - A ​Course of Love
Like ​Helen Schucman of A Course in Miracles, Mari Perron followed a process of inner dictation whose source was Jesus. The result of that channeling -- this series of teachings -- continually returns to a central theme: the heart knows more than the mind. The book challenges the idea that people are isolated individuals, arguing that everyone is integrally connected with each other and with the universe and that answers lie in union rather than separation.

P. D. Ouspensky - The ​Fourth Way
The ​Fourth Way is the most comprehensive statement thus far published of the ideas taught by the late P.D. Ouspensky. Consisting of verbatim records of his oral teaching from 1921 to 1946, it gives a lucid explanation of the practical side of G. I. Gurdjieff's teachings, which Gurdjieff presented in the form of raw materials, Ouspensky's specific task having been to put them together as a systematic whole. Just as Tertium Organum deals with a new mode of thinking, so The Fourth Way is concerned with a new way of living. It shows a way of inner development to be followed under the ordinary conditions of life -- as distinct from the three traditional ways that call for retirement from the world: those of the fakir, the monk, and the yogi. The Fourth Way is a guide for those who seek a true way of inner growth under conditions open to the men and women of today.

Ann Ree Colton - Jonathan Murro - Galaxy ​Gate I
The ​three outermost planets, Neptune, Uranus, and Pluto, comprise the galaxy gate, through which the cosmic energies of stars and galaxies are influencing sentient life on Earth. Through spiritual initiation man is now evolving a godly consciousness that will awaken and unite him with the Intelligible energies and purposes supporting the universe. The authors discuss important concepts related to developing this consciousness, including the specific functions of the planets, zodiacal patternings, the universe as a morality system, the gleaming brain, universal and archetypal cycles, time polarization, and many other subjects. Galaxy Gate I provides a necessary spiritual perspective of the solar system and the universe. The future role of man in the Cosmos requires more than a scientific understanding of the stars and galaxies; it requires the knowledge and expression of ethics, virtues, conscience, and morality.

Christa Faye Burka - Pearls ​of Consciousness
In ​this original work, initially published in 1987, the author presents an enlightened understanding of the natural process of transformation as it takes place on a personal level and its intimate relationship to global transformation. This book is a guide to all who desire to understand and experience life - changing transformation and to discover a new way of relating to themselves, to the world and to life itself. Praise for PEARLS OF CONSCIOUSNESS "This book touched me to the core of my soul. Much wisdom delivered in a concise format. It has helped me on my journey of personal transformation. I can feel that every word of this thin book was truth speaking to my soul. This book, first published in 1987, has similar teachings to Judith Orloff, MD and Caroline Myss' teachings while it was published over a decade before Myss' first book. There is much compassion and wisdom in the way knowledge is delivered. The union with self is the most fulfilling and satisfying union possible to mankind... If we want to experience peace on the planet, we must first make peace with ourselves. If we want to heal the planet, we must first heal ourselves. Mankind, as a whole has avoided taking the essential step in confronting inner pain preferring to blame the other for the pain within and the conflict in the world." I am grateful for the guidance from Pearls of Consciousness. I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in personal transformation and conscious evolution." Burmese Exile (U.S.A.) "I started to read Pearls of Consciousness again and am absolutely bowled over all over again by the pure poignancy and bone rattling profundity of this book. Oh, what a joy it is! So wonderfully wise and relevant to my transformation process that I am left breathless! How can humanity ever stop benefiting from these words and such genuine understanding of this all-embracing wisdom? I was so moved by even just the introduction and first chapter that I couldn't help the tears of gratitude these words brought to my eyes. Truly, the author Christa Burka is a master." Elliot Murray, U.K. "This book leads us, step by step onto a path toward a high level of consciousness and expanded awareness. We are accepted at the point where we are right now and guided more and more deeply into universal interconnectedness and truth. This step is possible for every person. It starts at the very point when you say yes to your personal growth process. This wonderful wisdom, full of light and love transcends the level of intellect. It is sourced in the level of heart that is connected with the whole. This is precisely why this book can teach us how to find our own wholeness, how to experience true and deep relationships with others and how to experience a transformed relationship to life." A. Spratte, Germany

Ismeretlen szerző - The ​Rosicrucian Enlightenment
It's ​nearly 30 years since historian Dame Frances Yates published her groundbreaking study The Rosicrucian Enlightement, and so brought academic rigour back to a subject which had for too long been almost the sole province of occultists who often confused fact and fancy. Yates placed the three main Rosicrucian manifestos, which first appeared in 1614-1616, in the context of their time and place--the marriage of Elizabeth, dauthter of James VI & I, to Fredrick, Elector Palatine, head of the German Protestant princes--and identified many of the key players in 17th-century hermetic thought. The Rosicrucian Enlightenment Revisited is a collection of papers given in Yates's honour at two conferences in the Czech Republic in 1995 and 1997, at which some of today's leading writers and academics in this field presented their latest research findings.

Michel Labreche - The ​Wizard of Us
Life ​is a journey, an experience from which we must emerge triumphing over what stops us from totally being. The only limit known to us is the one we cannot dismiss. In this book, I define mankind, our psychology and the constitution of our being (body, soul and mind). I also unveil our reality by answering the most fundamental issues which can trouble our minds: Who are we? Where do we come from? Where are we going? This lifetime analysis explains what are the causes of the degeneration of the human body provoking death, the ultimate outcome of a temporary victory of evil forces over us. This book examines the creation of the universe since it's origin, the Big Bang, the notion of reincarnation, and finally explores paranormal phenomena. My views are but a summary of what has happened to us throughout the centuries and our destiny (to become a human-spirit), if we have the power to overcome the burden we have been encumbered with. Finally, I describe our society in relation with the law of cycles. I speculate on possible scenarios on the end of a world (ours) and share numerous personal experiences so readers may understand their own evolution. The first page of this book is the first step towards releasing the wizard trapped inside everyone of us.

Robert Earl Burton - Self-Remembering

This book gives Burton's students an accurate transmission of his teaching on the core idea of self-remembering. Unique in the spiritual literature, this book is destined to become a classic.

Susan M. Watkins - Conversations ​with Seth 1.
In ​1963, Jane Roberts met a spiritual entity named Seth. He spoke through her and the lessons he taught proved timeless and crucial. From 1968 to 1975, Roberts held ESP classes, during which she channeled Seth. Susan Watkins was a member of that class. The knowledge gained from Seth helped Watkins and her classmates face serious illness, painful relationships, financial hardship, and natural catastrophe. It also changed their lives. <P>In addition to being a well-written, highly entertaining historical account of the late Jane Roberts and her class, Conversations with Seth reveals the profound insights discovered by class members--insights into the origin of both the troubling and triumphant events in our lives and into the vast nature of the human consciousness. Roberts's Seth material is consistently one of the top two most visited collections at the Yale University Archives. Review Conversations with Seth is a must-read for anyone exploring the theory that we each create our own reality. Even Seth's most esoteric theories were put to practice by Sue and her fellow classmates and, as a resulted, illustrated beautifully! -- Lynda Dahl, award-winning author of Beyond the Winning Streak and The Wizards of Consciousness, president of Seth Network International<br /><br />For me, the Seth material provides a bridge between science and spirituality. Conversations with Seth helps to illuminate, in a very personal way, the complexities of the material. -- Norman Friedman, author of Bridging Science and Spirit, and The Hidden Domain<br /><br />In Conversations with Seth Sue Watkins captures the excitement of the discovery, the controversy, and the hilarity that was Jane's class. The questions we asked, the issues we explored, are timeless- as relevant and revolutionary today as ever. -- Rich Kendall, former class member<br /><br />Susan Watkins has accomplished an immeasurable task in chronicling the time she spent in the company of Jane Roberts and Seth, who together produced one of the most amazing bodies of metaphysical literature of our time. She tells the story from the point of view of the novice and so takes us with her as we discover the "Seth" within us all. Reading her book is the next best thing to having actually been there ourselves. --Fred Alan Wolf, American Book-Award Winning author of Taking the Quantum Leap and The Spiritual Universe About the Author Susan Watkins is the author of books in several genres, including Dreaming Myself, Dreaming a Town and Garden Madness.

Richard Harvey - The ​Flight of Consciousness
Many ​people today are experiencing a deep longing to find their true nature. "The Flight of Consciousness" provides a description of the spiritual journey in 10 stages, from self-recognition through awareness, lessening, surrender and oneness, to enlightenment. Many people will recognise unannounced moments in their own lives which relate to these stages, particularly the earlier ones. Although it draws on the major religions, and on mysticism, the book is aimed primarily at the circumstances of the modern-day spiritual seeker, for whom the spiritual path is a unique, individual way to the Higher Self. We have arrived at a new period in our spiritual evolution, when established religions are being replaced by a spiritual life which can be led in the world, without renunciation or prescribed beliefs or even external form. The first challenge of this newly-evolving spiritual life is to give form to our path through individual method and personal mythology. The book encourages people to follow their inner wisdom and guidance. Although the metaphor of the journey is used throughout, consciousness (or freedom or enlightenment) is not truly a journey, but our natural state. The "journey" describes the return to the forgotten Self. This book is challenging yet accessible to general readers of spiritual literature as well as to the more committed seeker.
