Download or read book The Spiritual Hierarchy of the Universe from God to Man written by Walker Thomas and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2013-03-03 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE SPIRITUAL HIERARCHY OF THE UNIVERSE FROM GOD TO MAN, ACCORDING TO THE URANTIA BOOK describes the structure of the universe from God all the way down to us humans on our little planet earth, called “Urantia" by higher beings. Here we begin our eternal quest to find God and become perfect like Him, thereby "earning our wings" to live in eternity according to God's Laws of Love. This information is given to us in a true revelation published in 1955 called THE URANTIA BOOK, which helps us better grasp the true meaning of life in the universe.This teaching manual follows its companion titled THE SPIRITUAL ASCENSION PLAN OF THE UNIVERSE FROM MAN TO GOD, ACCORDING TO THE URANTIA BOOK, as described in the Introduction to each of the books in this series of 30 books under the umbrella title PEACE PLEASE. These two companion books are both written to help the reader understand terms referred to in Part IV called “The Life and Teachings of Jesus” (referred to herein as "The Jesus Papers") that are only explained in detail in the preceding Parts I, II, and III of THE URANTIA BOOK. This will help to keep the reader's focus on the heart of the teachings of URANTIA, which is "The Jesus Papers."So the objective of this simplification is to provide a minimum amount of clarifying passages from the first three parts of the book in order to make available a maximum amount of understanding to the reader of the "Jesus Papers" concerning the structure of the universe, in which the ascension plan to God actually takes place. Writing these simplifications for this “Spiritual Hierarchy” requires making strict decisions as to what is selected for inclusion and what is left in its original context; and the cost of making these strict decisions is to leave out incredibly rich passages that contain wisdom that we can't find anywhere else on the planet. So trying to include this minimum amount of text requires creating a sensitive yet decisive balance between exclusion and inclusion. There is no fool-proof method of simplifying the text, but these related manuals are our best effort to do that, in spite of the difficulties.
Download or read book The Seven Cosmic Worlds written by William E. Camilleri and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2012-09 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Seven Cosmic Worlds is a book based on the true cosmology of the spiritual and physical universe from when time was created by the archai, arch spirits of the hierarchies of the ultimate spiritual light of the ultimate beings that make up the Almighty God and His identity and how He created mankind and all the heavenly bodies. All other cosmologies that have taken away the source of all creation, all life, are empty in comparison to this description of the face of God Himself. It shows in this book that a mind beyond billions of years of thoughts of compassion and love created every molecule in every human being's heart that has learned to love God in the way God loves mankind in every person that seeks God, and His love knows this Truth. The author has developed a unique channeling process that speaks directly from a historical personality. For example, Jesus of Nazareth in the cosmic world light shield where the author speaks through the narration of the book based on King James New Testament Bible. Also, the author has been able to channel the spirit of the Archangel Michael so much so that the visions through the images of this spiritual being are identical to the angelic personality described in the Bible. Hence, the author's unique channeling process is presented graphically (both spiritual beings speaking to each other) describing how God created the cosmos.
Download or read book The Mystery of the Universe and the Meaning of Human Life written by Witness Lee and published by Living Stream Ministry. This book was released on 2024-02-15 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today man feels empty, insecure, wavering, and restless and has no calming and stabilizing power within, simply because he lacks God within. God is man’s content, and man should be God’s expression. For this goal, God created a spirit especially for man. This spirit is the organ for man to contact God, just like a receiver in a radio....Our conscience, the deep part in us, our spirit, always gives us a feeling that there is a Supreme Being, that there is a God in this universe. This proves two things. First, we have a spirit within, and second, we need God in our spirit.

The correct answer to that question is foundational for receiving from God.

If you have trouble receiving from God, this is a must-read!

Download or read book The Twelve Holy Nights and the Spiritual Hierarchies written by Sergei O. Prokofieff and published by Temple Lodge Publishing. This book was released on 2004-11-05 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prokofieff draws on the whole extent of Rudolf Steiner s work and combines it with his own original spiritual research to form an intricate picture of the cosmic forces at play between Christmas and Epiphany. We are led on a tour through the circle of the zodiac and spiritual hierarchies, and shown how they form a path from Jesus to Christ. The author further explains that the Starry Script is a key to anthroposophical Christology, and shows how it relates to the conception of the First Goetheanum. Prokofieff guides us imaginatively through the interior of Steiner s architectural masterpiece (destroyed by fire at the end of 1922), whose structure and decorations are seen to constitute a coherent esoteric map. Our task now, he suggests, is to rebuild the First Goetheanum within ourselves and, through a new form of self-development, work toward a truly modern path of initiation. Supplementary essays focus on the cosmic aspects of Sophia as well as the being of Michael. Prokofieff s seminal study offers a rich source of inspiration for those wishing to penetrate the mysteries of the Twelve Holy Nights and their relation to spiritual beings."

Download or read book The Language of Creation written by Matthieu Pageau and published by . This book was released on 2018-05-29 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Language of Creation is a commentary on the primeval stories from the book of Genesis. It is often difficult to recognize the spiritual wisdom contained in these narratives because the current scientific worldview is deeply rooted in materialism. Therefore, instead of looking at these stories through the lens of modern academic disciplines, such as sociology, psychology, or the physical sciences, this commentary attempts to interpret the Bible from its own cosmological perspective.By contemplating the ancient biblical model of the universe, The Language of Creation demonstrates why these stories are foundational to western science and civilization. It rediscovers the archaic cosmic patterns of heaven, earth, time, and space, and sees them repeated at different levels of reality. These fractal-like structures are first encountered in the narrative of creation and then in the stories of the Garden of Eden, Cain and Abel, and the flood. The same patterns are also revealed in the visions of Ezekiel, the book of Daniel, and the miracles of Moses. The final result of this contemplation is a vision of the cosmos centered on the role of human consciousness in creation.

Download or read book The Almighty s Religion for the Universe written by Sidney R Smith MHS and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-02-26 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What the author is attempting to do is provide new information about the Creator, life, the universe, and the purpose of humanity as it relates to what the Almighty has revealed to mankind. It is the intent of the author to offer new alternatives and explanations of life to give new insight as to man's role for being in existence on the planet Earth and in the universe. It offers the opportunity to explore and come to terms with this information so mankind can be enlightened to a new faith. The material in this book allows man to understand that there is no reward or punishment for coming to terms with what the Creator has revealed to mankind. To take away the fear of a hell and give a sense of immortality in lieu of a heavenly paradise. Nevertheless, this book will show mankind something different about man's creation and the purpose of his creation. It's a matter of life before birth (reincarnation). Have you ever thought of the possibility that there is life before life? Many people throughout the ages have questioned the possibility of life after death, but never of life before birth. I know of only one person who had some connection with the possibility of life before birth. Me. Edward Cayce, who died in 1945, recorded some accounts of his efforts to recall the lives of people in their spiritual past. He provided case studies dealing with his ability to read past histories of people's past lives but was not able to prove or disprove his abilities. But suppose we were to think in terms of having an existence before we were born. We have explored the prominent thought of life after death to a point of scientific examination and experimentation.

Download or read book Sex and Sects written by Stewart Davenport and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2022-03-17 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a revolution behind them, a continent before them, and the First Amendment protecting them, religio-sexual pioneers in antebellum America were free to strike out on their own, breaking with the orthodoxies of the past. Shakers followed the ascetic path; Oneida Perfectionists accepted sex as a gift from God; and Mormons redefined marriage in light of new religious revelations that also redefined God, humankind, spirit, and matter. Sex became a powerful way for each group to reinforce their sectarian identity as strangers in a strange land. Sex and Sects tells the story of these three religiously inspired sexual innovations in America: the celibate lifestyle of the Shakers, the Oneida Community’s system of controlled polyamory, and plural marriage as practiced by the Mormons. Stewart Davenport analyzes why these bold experiments rose and largely fell over the course of the nineteenth century within the confines of the new American republic. Moving beyond a social-scientific lens, Davenport traces for the first time their fascinating shared trajectory as they emerged, struggled, institutionalized, and declined in tandem—and sheds historical light on the way in which Americans have discussed, contested, and redefined the institutions of marriage and family both in our private lives and in the public realm.
Download or read book The Secret of the Universe written by Nathan R. Wood and published by . This book was released on 2014-09-01 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Over 50 years ago, Nathan R. Wood wrote a very interesting book. He called it "The Secret of the Universe." In this book, he shows the unifying principle of the universe to be the Trinity. The trinities of space, time, matter and us are clearly explained. Then he puts it all together in a most surprising fashion. This is a real 'eye opener' for The Romans 1:20, 21 scripture. It would be worth your while to get a copy of this book and study it." -Howard Eugene Wright, "Deceitful Masters" - Why is the universe what it is? - Is it really a universe? - What is its structure? -The basic things-Space-Matter-Time-"Is there a universal principle?" -The Equation of the Universe-How far does the structure of the universe extend? -How the being of God was presented to us -How does man , God and matter effect our perception of the truth? The Trinity of Father, Son and Holy Spirit reflected and expressed in the trinities of space, matter, and time is the secret of the universe. It is the key to the many riddles of the universe. It shows why things are as they are, and that they did not happen so. It shows why space is what it is, of three dimensions. It shows why matter is what it is, of energy, motion and phenomena, with all their relationships. It shows why time is as it is, composed of future, present and past. It shows why man is made as he is. It may show the great principle of unity in all things. It should illuminate the relationship of space, matter, and time. It may well cast light on the mysterious principles of existence, of change, and of reality, in the universe. The being of God, as the central fact of the universe, may explain these universal things. It may make them clear, not as we ourselves paradoxically try to make mysteries clear, by involved effort, and intricacies of thought, and abstruse analysis, but by the broad, self-evident fact of the Trinity. "The Secrets of the Universe" is both a work of extraordinary genius and a revelatory New Thought Classic.
Download or read book The Hierarchy of Heaven and Earth written by Douglas Edison Harding and published by . This book was released on 2011-08 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book begins with the question 'Who am I?' and immediately sets off in an astonishingly original direction. Why didn't anyone before Harding think of responding to this question like this? It's so obvious, once you see it. Harding presents a new vision of our place in the universe that uses the scientific method of looking to see what is true. It turns out that the truth about ourselves is not only true but also very good, and breathtakingly beautiful. We live in a sacred, many-layered, living universe - or rather it lives in us. Though it was completed in 1950, this book is still ahead of its time. One day it will surely be widely recognised for its greatness: its all-encompassing vision, its originality and freshness, its depth of insight, its wide-ranging knowledge, the clarity and poetry of its language, its humanity. It is a world-view not dependent on local culture or religion, but on universally verifiable facts. It is also a world-view that respects our manifest differences whilst celebrating our underlying unity - the unity not just of oneself with other people but with all of life, indeed with the whole universe. Harding died in 2007 aged 97, leaving behind him an impressive body of work. He was a highly creative person who was passionate about - he was in love with - this living universe and the immortal treasure that abides at its centre - at our centre. "A work of the highest genius." C. S. Lewis.
