Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This spiritual guide provides insight and direction to all spiritual travelers on the road to a higher consciousness. This higher consciousness is the state of consciousness which mystics, prophets and spiritual leaders call "enlightenment" and which they have spoken of throughout the history of mankind. It is that state which we must all achieve individually and collectively if we are to survive and thrive on this planet. A Mystic Guide to Spiritual Evolution is a pictorial voyage to spiritual illumination. Each photo with accompanying comment provides a piece of the map which leads to an expansion of consciousness. This pictorial guide is meant to illuminate the contours of the emotions, feelings and thoughts that inhabit that heightened state of consciousness. It is the beginning of the journey into the "Light" of an expanded human consciousness and a more joyful and expansive participation in eternality of life in the here and now. There is an entry way into a level of consciousness, within the center of each one of us, where we all simultaneously coexist, where we all can share one common consciousness, which is often referred to as God consciousness, enlightenment or Cosmic Consciousness. This state of consciousness is described as the all-encompassing, omnipresent, omnipotent and omniscient source of all creation. You will not find access to it anywhere or in anything outside of yourself yet it exists everywhere and in everything. Our individual access to It is at the very center of our beings and each one of us must access it ourselves and only then will we be able to experience the presence of God in our lives, the positive effects of a heightened state of consciousness. After all we are, allegedly, the most intelligent of species and are therefore obligated to use that intelligence to evolve physically, mentally and spiritually. As a species we determine the future of this planet by the thoughts in our minds, the limitations of our consciousness. This is a self- help book to achieve "enlightenment", for this state of consciousness can only be achieved one person at a time. It is a guidebook to the evolution of consciousness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE MYSTIC PATH OF DIVINE LOVE The Process of Mystical Transformation and The Path of Divine Love This Volume focuses on the ancient wisdom teachings of "Neter Merri" -the Ancient Egyptian philosophy of Divine Love and how to use them in a scientific process for self-transformation. Love is one of the most powerful human emotions. It is also the source of Divine feeling that unifies God and the individual human being. When love is fragmented and diminished by egoism the Divine connection is lost. The Ancient tradition of Neter Merri leads human beings back to their Divine connection, allowing them to discover their innate glorious self that is actually Divine and immortal. This volume will detail the process of transformation from ordinary consciousness to cosmic consciousness through the integrated practice of the teachings and the path of Devotional Love toward the Divine.

Download or read book The Mystical Accord written by James Tunney and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-05-31 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are we? Who are we? Are we just some kind of lucky animal that evolved and are now almost too clever for our own good? Does evolution explain everything? Religion? The Mystical Accord argues that the history of mysticism gives us a consistent pattern to help answer the biggest questions. Spiritual evolution is ignored with the growth of technocratic societies. The nature of Mysticism is outlined in the book's Introduction. Mysticism deals with inexplicable, supernatural, metaphysical domains beyond the limitations of reason. Mystics deal with spiritual growth and the meaning of life. Mysticism is a vision of an individual, spiritual, inner pilgrimage towards enlightenment and revelation. Being individual does not mean the mystic is outside religious tradition, indeed they often cause and contribute towards it. Mysticism overlaps with psychology, metaphysics, magic and esoteric studies. History and practice demonstrate a recurrent process with lessons for everybody. When the idea of spirit, free will and consciousness is under attack, we must reflect on what is at stake. The Mystical Accord suggests that we acknowledge being spiritual beings. We are individual, conscious beings, beneficiaries of pre-existing consciousness. Science has failed to explain the nature and origin of consciousness. From those foundations we see a similar pathway indicated by most spiritual traditions. That involves looking at our self and working to discard what is false, negative and destructive to come to our true self in a process of transcending the ego. True self is closer to our spirit, our original consciousness and allows 'nexus to the numinous'. Most evolved spiritual traditions promote values such as compassion as the star to follow on this path. Mystical perceptions reflect perennial philosophy and parallel the hero's journey. It is necessary to comprehend spiritual growth when opposing forces of control seek to diminish the spirit. Science, technology and material prosperity produce undeniable benefits but need to be balanced. They are servants not masters. Hostile to our own spiritual dimension we may sink into a straitjacket of technological servitude. The quiet voice of conscience is often the gift of the mystic. The Mystical Accord suggests the need for an accord or alignment between our head and heart in the process of spiritual evolution. Mystical traditions suggest that the fruits of the spiritual path pursued in a disciplined way, lead to profound clarity and inner peace, joyous and persistent. We may avoid confronting great existential questions but they never go away. If we look at the pattern of similar mystical observations, we make sense of the outside intellectually and the inner spiritually. Looking at universal experiences of mystics we discern positive messages that help us. The Mystical Accord is a structure superimposed on existing spiritual systems like a transparency that does not seek to disturb them. Many people have lost touch with their own religions. Many never had religion nor even spirituality. The mystical journey exists independently of the outside world but is informed by the experience of others, irrespective of beliefs. It is ignorant to avoid the parallels but silly to ignore the different destinations that spiritual vehicles will bring you. This involves the distinction between the exoteric and esoteric. The person who follows the rules of their religion without an inner transformation will lose much. The introduction explains the notion of mysticism. However the book is principally written in the form of lines of 17 syllables like modern haikus or contemporary sutras. Spiritual and mystical expression has a long history of short sentences like building bricks. All around the globe, mystics seek to explore their inner world and share it through words or actions. The method of the poet and the brevity of single lines allow truths to be stated, simply or in more cryptic ways.

Download or read book The Path of Initiation written by J. S. Gordon and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-07-04 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Details the process of spiritual initiation from aspirant to the highest Adept • Explains the characteristics of each stage of initiation, including the associated psychological issues that need to be faced to move to the next stage • Explores the long history of the Mystery traditions from ancient Egypt, Babylonia, and India to the modern Theosophy of Blavatsky and Bailey • Reveals how the Brotherhood of Spiritual Adepts is increasing global tensions to prepare humanity for the Age of Aquarius and spiritual revelation As the precessional cycle transits from Pisces to Aquarius, great shifts in spiritual evolution are on the horizon--not for all of humanity as many in the New Age movement have generously hypothesized but for those who have undertaken the necessary spiritual preparation and initiatory work. Drawing from his deep immersion in the Mystery traditions of both East and West, author J. S. Gordon investigates the initiatic path from ancient times to modern day, detailing the step-by-step process of initiation and the sequence from spiritual aspirant to the highest Adeptship. He explains the natural logic and characteristics of each stage of initiation, including the associated problems and psychological issues that need to be faced in order to move forward to the next stage. He shows how humanity is naturally inclined to spiritual evolution and the development of higher consciousness. We are part of the overall evolutionary process of Nature, a system guided by the most highly evolved Adepts and extending beyond Earth to the entire kosmos. Exploring the long history of the Mystery schools beginning with ancient Egypt, Babylonia, and India, Gordon examines the sacred metaphors and allegories of esoteric philosophy, metaphysics, occult science, and the Science of the Seven Rays as well as the Adept-inspired theosophical works of H. P. Blavatsky and A. A. Bailey. He looks at the Adept Hierarchy of the Great White Himalayan Brotherhood and considers in detail two much-discussed mysteries: The Jesus-as-Christ mystery and the Maitreya-Buddha mystery. Revealing how advancement--spiritual, scientific, and cultural--erupts out of tension, he explains how the Adepts have been increasing local and global tensions to prepare humanity for the Age of Aquarius, thereby creating the ideal preconditions for spiritual evolution and an eventual restoration of the Mysteries in our own modern era.
Download or read book Working with Oneness written by Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee and published by The Golden Sufi Center. This book was released on 2002-05-02 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humanity has been given access to the secrets of oneness, but we need to learn how to work with them. Working with Oneness brings mysticism into the center of the marketplace, into the world of business and technology, and shows how we can work with it in everyday life. The dynamic energy of oneness has the potential to heal the planet and revolutionize life more than we can imagine, but it requires our individual participation and awareness to become fully alive. The energy of oneness is already present but waiting to be lived, and Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee provides a blueprint for working consciously with this energy. As we understand how our consciousness affects the whole fabric of life, the potential for real global change comes alive. Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee stresses the need to change from hierarchical, patriarchal power structures to organic patterns that allow for the free flow of energy and ideas. Through these patterns the dynamic energy of oneness can become part of everyday life. Working with Oneness includes a number of additional important topics, including: the changing energy structure of the planet and how to work with it; the power of individual consciousness; the danger of the desire for spiritual security; the return of joy to everyday life; the awakening of the heart of the world; a new understanding of magic; the use of the imagination; and mystical participation in life with the energy of oneness. Working with Oneness offers guidance on how to work with the energy of oneness, to learn how to participate in life free of the patterns of the past, so that the divine can come alive in every moment of every day. Working with Oneness is mystical activism at its most potent. “There is a growing and eager audience waiting for a vision of unity consciousness... Working with Oneness offers a salutary antidote to worn-out antagonisms. It challenges readers to join other kindred souls in a mystical activism that can bring new hope to humanity.” —Spirituality & Health “A book filled with wonder and the kind of insights that can leap out to your heart and gladden you for having read them. It's words are simple and straightforward—always a blessing—but its message it the most vital and important for the time in which we live. I recommend it.” —David Spangler, author, Blessings: the Art and the Practice
Download or read book The Mystic Christ written by Ethan Walker and published by Devi Press, Inc.. This book was released on 2003 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Mystic Christ is an ancient tale of mystic union, salvation, and enlightenment. It is the careful uncovering of a lost treasure of immeasurable value, long buried in the suffocating darkness of conventional orthodoxy on one side, and blind fundamentalist extremism on the other. From the viewpoint of the world's mystical religious traditions, the brilliant light of the Master's way is revealed as a penetrating radical non-duality unifying all people and all of life. His path to this all-embracing unity is the spiritual practice of pure selfless love. Love God intensely, love our neighbor as our own Self, bless those that curse us, and pray for those that mistreat us. Love has been lost, becoming nothing more than a word in the dictionary and, yet, it remains the foundation of Jesus' message."
