Download or read book Coming World Changes written by Harriette Augusta Curtiss and published by . This book was released on 2016-07-26 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Teachings of The Order of Christian Mystics expound an all-inclusive Cosmic Philosophy. COMING WORLD CHANGES A rational summary of the many recent prophecies as to world cataclysms, the value of such prophecies, and the scientific and philosophic principles underlying such cyclic changes in the earth's surface. Not a pessimistic, hopeless and fear-producing volume, but presenting the underlying principles of the changes, and a definite remedy for shortening "the days of tribulation." What but the dawn of the new Age of Light, the great Aquarian Age, when the Sign of the Son of Man shall reign in heaven; when the ancient priesthood shall be gathered from the Four Winds again to receive the an-cient wisdom of the Spiritual Sun direct from its Infinite Source and give it forth that its rays of Divine Truth may again illumine the minds and warm the hearts of mankind. All spiritual prophecies have two aspects: individual and collective. They are first fulfilled in the individual hearts and lives of the few who can grasp their inner meaning, and then, as such individuals become more and more numerous, they make it possible for the prophecies to be fulfilled for a whole nation, a Race and finally for all mankind. Thus far only individually has this spiritual realization prophesied by the angelic host been fulfilled. For mankind has never yet collectively realized its common origin in the Divine, and hence its essential spiritual brotherhood. Only the realization of this brotherhood can bring about the peace and good-will so long promised by the heavenly host." Contents -Prophecies of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and many others. -Geological Consider-ations, the scientific aspect. -The Philosophy of Planetary Changes such as sank Atlantis, etc. -The King of the World and the predicted Asiatic invasion of Europe. -The Heart of the World. The relation of America to world conditions. -The Battle of Armageddon. Psychic factors in the World War, etc. -The Remedy. Based on scientific psychological principles.

Book excerpt: The Teachings of The Order of Christian Mystics Set the Inner Spiritual Pattern for Life. THE PATTERN LIFE The Symbolic Life of Christ Every seeker and initiate is destined to walk the same well trodden path of those that have come before. There is but one universal story of the initiate. The One Pattern Life we are all in the process of unfolding. Based on the Life of the Master Jesus. The most astonishing yet revealing interpretation of the Gospel story. Gives it a new spiritual yet logical and scientific appeal. The result of Dr. Curtiss' 20 years of painstaking and scholarly research in the fields of comparative religion, philosophy, psychology and sym-bolism. The results are astonishing if not sensational in the religious field. Not dry scholastic argument, but applied to the daily experiences of our lives. Gives the only satisfactory explanation of the many inaccuracies and flat contradictions in the Gospels. Accepts the historical facts recently discovered, but definitely refutes the materialistic conclusions of the "higher critics" and mythologists. A great reconciler of conflicting opinions and theories. Contents -Introduction. The Universal Solar Myth. The basis of all world religions. -The Annunciations. To Elizabeth and Zacharias.

Download or read book Christian Mystics written by Carl McColman and published by Broadleaf Books . This book was released on 2021-11-16 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christian Mystics: 108 Seers, Saints and Sages celebrates the many types of mystics, visionaries, wisdom keepers, and non-dualists whose spiritual insight and perceptive teachings have illuminated the Christian tradition for the past two thousand years. Looking at 108 mystics from Biblical times to the present day, this user-friendly guide shows how the spiritual masters of the western tradition provide a variety of paths into the transforming heart of God. Everyone needs teachers and companions to guide and nurture us in developing rich interior lives -- as we seek to respond to the beatifying, deifying love of God. The mystics, whose legacy includes sublime poetry, fascinating autobiographies, and potentially life-changing teachings, can help anyone find greater love, purpose, and a deeper sense of God's presence. But the mystics are not a uniform bunch, which is why this book is such an essential guide to their lives, wisdom, and essential teachings. Carl McColman, author of The Big Book of Christian Mysticism, organizes the mystics into nine categories: visionaries, confessors, lovers, poets, saints, heretics, wisdom keepers, soul-friends, and unitives. By profiling twelve examples of great mystics and spiritual teachers in each category, the book can help you to learn more about the mystics, and identify those whose writings will be most valuable to you as you pursue your own adventure of falling ever more deeply in love with God.All of the most famous Christian mystics are profiled here: figures like Teresa of çvila, Meister Eckhart, Julian of Norwich, John of the Cross, Evelyn Underhill, Thomas Merton, and anonymous masters like the authors of classics like The Cloud of Unknowing or The Way of a Pilgrim. But the book also will introduce you to many lesser known (but truly wonderful) mystical geniuses, such as Beatrice of Nazareth, Gregory of Narek, and Coventry Patmore. Nor does the book shy away from living (or recently living) mystics: visionaries such as Howard Thurman, Sara Grant, Kenneth Leech, and Bruno Barnhart are all included.This informative volume will appeal to those who buy religious reference books and anyone interested in Christian mysticism or western spirituality. But it's more than just a history book or an encyclopedia: Christian Mystics: 108 Seers, Saints and Sages is a curated celebration of western spiritual wisdom, making it accessible for all seekers today.
