Book excerpt: "There are two ways of life open to a person here on earth," says Joel Goldsmith in Living the Illumined Life. "There is the human way, the way of the unillumined, and there is the spiritual way, the way of the illumined." What is the difference? The unillumined individual is living by and through his own powers, wisdom, and strength, Goldsmith explains. It is a life of toil, effort, and worry, often limited in education, limited in experience, limited in background, or limited in finances. The illumined individual is living in conscious awareness of an indwelling Presence, Being, Power. He has realized that he is not living his life alone: "I live, yet not I; this spirit of the Lord God which is upon me is living my life." This is a life of infinite capacity and complete freedom. Goldsmith boldly asks the reader: "Do you believe that the spirit of God dwells in you? Do you believe there is an indwelling Christ in you? Do you believe that you are the temple of God? Do you believe that you can do all things through Christ that dwells in you?" If you cannot answer in the affirmative, he says, you are still the unillumined. But, he encourages, you are the one who can change that. For those who are inspired to make the transition and live life as one of the illumined, Living the Illumined Life clearly lays out the principles and practices that can purify consciousness and lift the sincere seeker to the awareness of the Presence and Power within. Then as illumination comes, he can walk free and unfettered, without fear, by Grace. Note: Living the Illumined Life is the collection of the 1972 Infinite Way Letters.]

Download or read book The Illumined Life Classic Reprint written by Helen van Anderson-Gordon and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Illumined Life serves as a personal plea by the author, Helen van Anderson-Gordon, to readers in the hopes that they will see the Divine in all things. Anderson-Gordon's work stands out as an interesting display of the intermingling overlap between religion and spirituality. While Christianity and Christian beliefs stand at the core of Anderson-Gordon's work, themes with a more spiritual approach flow throughout the book, inducing the reader to believe Anderson-Gordon possesses more religious sentimentality than that of most traditional Christian authors. Anderson-Gordon's primary argument is that any life may be improved through religion and the practice of faith; a point she argues to great effect throughout the text. Anderson-Gordon's book is divided into ten chapters, each of which apply to a different aspect of the soul's spiritual journey. Anderson-Gordon hopes to guide the reader into a more spiritual existence where one does not ignore the soul and God, but instead embraces both and their blessings. The book offers her own personal insight and experiences along with step-by-step directions for the reader to follow in the hopes of the reader achieving similar religious experiences. Anderson-Gordon's main goal is to encourage readers into either strengthening their own faith or finding faith in a life that previously had none. The Illumined Life by Helen van Anderson-Gordon is a great addition to the book collection of any religious enthusiast. For readers who want to explore their own spirituality or to read about the spiritual journey of another, this book stands out as a great option. Offering insight and a powerful spiritual guide, this book makes for a very encouraging and authoritative resource for any reader struggling with their own beliefs.

Download or read book Living with a Wild God written by Barbara Ehrenreich and published by Twelve. This book was released on 2014-04-08 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the New York Times bestselling author of Nickel and Dimed comes a brave, frank, and exquisitely written memoir that will change the way you see the world. Barbara Ehrenreich is one of the most important thinkers of our time. Educated as a scientist, she is an author, journalist, activist, and advocate for social justice. In LIVING WITH A WILD GOD, she recounts her quest-beginning in childhood-to find "the Truth" about the universe and everything else: What's really going on? Why are we here? In middle age, she rediscovered the journal she had kept during her tumultuous adolescence, which records an event so strange, so cataclysmic, that she had never, in all the intervening years, written or spoken about it to anyone. It was the kind of event that people call a "mystical experience"-and, to a steadfast atheist and rationalist, nothing less than shattering. In LIVING WITH A WILD GOD, Ehrenreich reconstructs her childhood mission, bringing an older woman's wry and erudite perspective to a young girl's impassioned obsession with the questions that, at one point or another, torment us all. The result is both deeply personal and cosmically sweeping-a searing memoir and a profound reflection on science, religion, and the human condition. With her signature combination of intellectual rigor and uninhibited imagination, Ehrenreich offers a true literary achievement-a work that has the power not only to entertain but amaze.

Download or read book Luminous Life written by Jacob Israel Liberman and published by New World Library. This book was released on 2018-01-22 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Let Light Guide Your Life The most important things in life are our health and happiness. Yet most of us are neither healthy nor happy. We have been led to believe that if we think ahead and make the right choices, we can manifest our dreams. Yet despite our best efforts, we still have more disease and discontent than ever before. Is it possible that our essential ideas about life are flawed? We are all aware of the impact of sunlight on a plant’s growth and development. But few of us realize that a plant actually “sees” where light is emanating from and positions itself to be in optimal alignment with it. This phenomenon, however, is not just occurring in the plant kingdom — humans are also fundamentally directed by light. In Luminous Life, Dr. Jacob Israel Liberman integrates scientific research, clinical practice, and direct experience to demonstrate how the luminous intelligence we call light effortlessly guides us toward health, contentment, and a life filled with purpose.
