Download or read book Mysticism written by Bruno Borchert and published by Weiser Books. This book was released on 1994-01-01 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mystical experience is not really understood in our modern Western culture, but we have a rich history and traadition that can be traced from remote ages to the present day. It is a phenomenon common to all religions and races, differing in manifestation, but sharing a similar foundation#8212the realization from personal experience that all things are interdependent, that the source is One. The mystical experience is often brief, immediate, maybe mysterious#8212a last experience that rbings all-embracing emotion (love) into the bounds of concrete reality. Bruno Borchert brings mysticism into sharp focus by exploring ideas and concecpts from world religions and explaining Christian mystics in history, in perspective, and through art. He takes us from Zoroaster to European alchemists, explores the Hellenistic world, the feminine world-view, and the experience of God shard by saints and well-known mystics such as St. Theresa and St. Francis. Modern approaches explored by psychologists like Jung and Maslow, and the contemporary search for mystical love make this a necessary book for people who want to understand the spiritual path.

Download or read book written by Lawrence Hall Dawson and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2005-06-01 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through the years, I have felt a deep bewilderment regarding humankind's varied interpretations of God's Word and/or of those Spiritual teachings which have been attributed to the Messengers of God. I took a monumental leap of Faith and went beyond the boundaries of organized religion; I went to The Source Itself; The Source of all TRUTH, God, my Creator. It was only recently that I was privileged to be Given a Direct Line to TRUTH: a new Revelation on how to Commune directly with God, our Creator. As an analogy, God Served as the Master Storage Bank of all TRUTH; my mind became as the Terminal Computer and the Modem was The Christ or my At-ONEment with God. No longer need I be dependent upon the word of humankind; through The Mediator, The Christ, I was now provided with an immediate, untarnished Access to God's Word. For those who do not believe that humankind today can have direct Access to God's Word, may I suggest re-reading with an open mind these verses attributed to Jesus, The Christ as written in the Holy Bible; St. John 14: 12-14: "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. "And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. "If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it." Does humankind Truly Believe as Jesus, The Christ did, "I and my Father are One...?" It was through my TRUE Self, The Christ Self, during my Communion with God Mind that all quoted material of Return to TRUTH was Given to me in Answer to my questions, my questions which were Seeking the TRUTH that will set humankind free. Remember: "Understanding (that which is NEW), will need an openness of mind as that which is NEW tends to destroy that which is OLD. Openness means willingness to entertain NEW ideas. Amen."

In this book we will document from the Masonic Ritual the authoritative book given to a person who enters and becomes a member of the Lodge how Masonry conflicts and denies foundational Christian truths.
