Book excerpt: ULTIMATE TRUTH is the first volume of the 'TRUTH' series. It is a riveting, thought provoking masterpiece of theories, philosophy and great spiritual insight about our Divine nature and Celestial origins. It delves heavily into the esoteric and occult teachings that many are often unaware of or too afraid to accept. In this book, author Peter C. Rogers, D.D., Ph.D takes on many of the topics that are taboo or often hard to understand and simplifies them for the common lay person. This book will prompt you to ponder and even question a lot of the things you hold to be true. It will shake your foundation to the core causing you to wonder why you've never been taught these things in school, in church or in society. By the same token, this book will be met with public ridicule, controversy and resistance by those who are still unwilling to accept the 'Ultimate Truth' about our Being. As this book will point out, we are living in an age where truth is our only salvation and the deception of the elite will no longer be tolerated by the masses. Our planetary consciousness is stirring and we as a race of Cosmic Spiritual Beings are heeding the call of the Divine in our spirits and in our genetic memory code. This book is yet another piece of the awakening process for all those who look therein. It is a synthesis of various truths, fundamental spiritual beliefs, powerful incite and thought provoking stimuli. The only thing that now stands between you and a new way of life is You!--for a closed mind is a barrier against change. May your life be forever altered by the renewing of your mind and the liberation of your Spirit.

Download or read book The Wisdom Pyramid written by Brett McCracken and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2021-01-15 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We're facing an information overload. With the quick tap of a finger we can access an endless stream of addictive information—sports scores, breaking news, political opinions, streaming TV, the latest Instagram posts, and much more. Accessing information has never been easier—but acquiring wisdom is increasingly difficult. In an effort to help us consume a more balanced, healthy diet of information, Brett McCracken has created the "Wisdom Pyramid." Inspired by the food pyramid model, the Wisdom Pyramid challenges us to increase our intake of enduring, trustworthy sources (like the Bible) while moderating our consumption of less reliable sources (like the Internet and social media). At a time when so much of our daily media diet is toxic and making us spiritually sick, The Wisdom Pyramid suggests that we become healthy and wise when we reorient our lives around God—the foundation of truth and the eternal source of wisdom.
Download or read book 100 Wisdom written by Sirshree and published by WOW PUBLISHINGS PVT LTD. This book was released on 2018-12-08 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FROM KNOWLEDGE OF SELF TO EXPERIENCE OF SELF We decide and pursue various goals in our lives. But what is the goal of life itself? Why are we born? Why does this world exist? Understanding the essence of life is a subjective experience; it cannot be objective knowledge. We can only experience it by ‘being’ life itself. And to ‘be’ it, we need to empty our mind off concepts and notions about the Truth. This book is one in the ‘Ocean in a Drop’ series. It is like the ocean in a drop. It presents the quintessential wisdom of life, which has been distilled from conversations between seekers and Sirshree. It explains the crux of true wisdom. 100% wisdom enables the seeker to start with pure consciousness as the reference point. When people seek the Truth in terms of concepts, they can never arrive. With the right wisdom, one realizes that there is no need to arrive; one is already home, in one’s true nature.
Download or read book The Future of God written by Deepak Chopra, M.D. and published by Harmony. This book was released on 2015-11-10 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the New York Times Bestselling Author. Can God be revived in a skeptical age? What would it take to give people a spiritual life more powerful than anything in the past? Deepak Chopra tackles these issues with eloquence and insight in this book. He proposes that God lies at the source of human awareness. Therefore, any person can find the God within that transforms everyday life. God is in trouble. The rise of the militant atheist movement spearheaded by Richard Dawkins signifies, to many, that the deity is an outmoded myth in the modern world. Deepak Chopra passionately disagrees, seeing the present moment as the perfect time for making spirituality what it really should be: reliable knowledge about higher reality. Outlining a path to God that turns unbelief into the first step of awakening, Deepak shows us that a crisis of faith is like the fire we must pass through on the way to power, truth, and love. “Faith must be saved for everyone’s sake,” he writes. “From faith springs a passion for the eternal, which is even stronger than love. Many of us have lost that passion or have never known it.” In any age, faith is a cry from the heart. God is the higher consciousness that responds to the cry. “By itself, faith can’t deliver God, but it does something more timely: It makes God possible.” For three decades, Deepak Chopra has inspired millions with his profound writing and teaching. With The Future of God, he invites us on a journey of the spirit, providing a practical path to understanding God and our own place in the universe. Now, is a moment of reinvigoration, he argues. Now is moment of renewal. Now is the future.
Download or read book Steps To Knowledge The Book of Inner Knowing written by Marshall Vian Summers and published by New Knowledge Library. This book was released on 2013-09-28 with total page 619 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Steps to Knowledge: The Book of Inner Knowing Steps to Knowledge is the Book of Inner Knowing. Its one-year study plan, which is divided into 365 “steps,” or lessons, is designed to enable students to learn to experience and to apply their Self-Knowledge, or Spiritual Power, in the world. Steps to Knowledge sets out to accomplish this task in a step-by-step manner as students are introduced to the essential ideas and practices which make such an undertaking possible. Practicing every day provides a solid foundation of experience and develops the thinking, perception and self-motivation necessary for both worldly success and spiritual advancement. Steps to Knowledge describes Knowledge in the following way: “Knowledge represents your True Self, your True Mind and your True Relationships in the universe. It also possesses your greater calling in the world and a perfect utilization of your nature, all of your inherent abilities and skills, even your limitations, all to be given for good in the world.” (Step 2) Knowledge is the deeper spiritual mind that the Creator has given to each person. It is the source of all meaningful action, contribution and relationships. It is our natural Inner Guidance system. Its reality is mysterious, but its Presence can be directly experienced. Knowledge is remarkably wise and effective in guiding each person in finding his or her right relationships, work and contribution. It is equally effective in preparing one to recognize the many pitfalls and deceptions that exist along the way. It is the basis for seeing, knowing, and acting with certainty and strength. It is the foundation of life. Steps to Knowledge has been provided as a Way for individuals who feel that a spiritual calling and purpose are emerging in their lives, but who need a new approach to fully comprehend what this means. Often these individuals have felt this pull for a long time. Steps provides a foundation upon which they can begin to respond to this calling. The only entrance requirement is the determination to know one’s purpose, meaning and direction.
Download or read book Seeking Wisdom from God written by Thomas H. Walker and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2011-01-14 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seeking Wisdom from God presents a fresh and unique look at some Biblical topics. Because knowledge increases faster than wisdom, we have an abundance of Biblical knowledge and a shortage of Biblical wisdom. Knowledge has increased, due to our advances in understanding the ancient Hebrew and Greek languages coupled with the dissecting of Scripture using historical, textual, and literary analysis. Tragically, Christianity looks nothing like its inception on the Day of Pentecost. Why are there over 20,000 different denominations? Why do I still sin daily? Have we replaced Divine Illumination with historical, literary and textual analysis? If Adam had not sinned, the worlds population would have reached 100 billion in 1,836 years. How are we all going to fit on this planet when eternity begins? Why did God plant a fruit-yielding tree in Eden and then forbid Adam and Eve from eating of its fruit? This was a very good book by a man of great wisdom Five Stars, LibraryThing Reviewer Its such an eye opener book Five Stars, LibraryThing Reviewer This is an excellent book for Bible study. It brings Biblical truths into a new perspective Five Stars, LibraryThing Reviewer a marvelous fusion of faith and scholarship First Editing
Download or read book The Pursuit Of Wisdom written by Robert Fertig and published by . This book was released on 2022-03-04 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wisdom seekers are searching for Truth, Knowledge, Justice, Beauty, and Love. We constantly encounter "raw data and sound bites," which is meaningless, unintelligent information without much truth or knowledge. The actual purpose of Wisdom is the Pursuit of Transcendent truths, whereby we hope to find Goodness, Justice, and Beauty. In our Pursuit, Faith and Reason is essential, especially when we do not fully understand society, nor the physical universe. The end objective of All Wisdom is finding Perfect Love. Can we really speak of, and defend, "Universal Human Rights," in a cultural climate in which the very idea of "truth" is under sustained assault? Culture battles are ongoing debates-a continuing struggle- between those who believe that human beings can, however inadequately, grasp the truth of how we ought to live together, and those for whom any notion of faith and "transcendent truth" involves an unacceptable imposition of someone's values on someone else. Nevertheless, Truth never changes!
Download or read book Knowledge Power Wealth and Wisdom written by Maurice Webb and published by Austin Macauley Publishers. This book was released on 2023-10-13 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Knowledge involves true belief and the realization of one’s own ignorance is the precondition for its attainment. Power is similar to distilled liquor; it will intoxicate and dim the judgment of even the most scrupulous men. Wealth is frequently associated with spiritual poverty and the distribution of wealth in any society exposes its lack of justice. Wisdom is combined with the trinity of values, which are, the absolute truth, the spirit of beauty and complete goodness. The man who is neither good nor wise remains self-satisfied. He has no desire to acquire that to which he feels no need. Aristotle insisted that life is the activity of the mind. Plato insisted that life is a preparation for death.
Download or read book Seat of Wisdom written by James M. Jacobs and published by CUA Press. This book was released on 2022-01-14 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Catholic Church has always recognized that philosophy is necessary both to understand the faith as well as to defend it. The need for a philosophically informed faith has become more acute with the rise of secularism. Seat of Wisdom demonstrates that the philosophical principles developed in the Catholic tradition, especially as articulated in Thomism, provide the intellectual foundation for belief in God and are also the only reliable basis for a fully coherent vision of man’s place in the world. Seat of Wisdom begins with an exploration of the relationship between faith and reason. Philosophy’s essential role is to discover the rational principles underlying the intelligible order of reality. These principles act as a bridge connecting science and religious faith, enabling the believer to integrate all facets of human experience. Each of those first principles, as expressed in the transcendental properties, are then analyzed as the basis of the major philosophical disciplines. Starting with metaphysics’ study of being, the argument proceeds to consider the true, the good, and the beautiful in terms of epistemology, anthropology, ethics, aesthetics, and political philosophy. Lastly, these principles are shown to point to God as creator. The strength of the Catholic philosophical tradition is evident when contrasted with reductive theories which fail to account for the breadth of human experience. Consequently, each chapter will introduce influential philosophers whose inadequate theories inform contemporary assumptions. Against this, the Thomistic argument is elucidated as being inclusive of the insights of the reductive position. It will be seen that this “both/and” approach is the only way to do justice to the glory of God and the gift of creation. Religion is prey to skepticism when it is isolated from the rest of knowledge. This integrative argument, uniting discussions of nature, politics, and theology according to common principles, enables the reader to grasp the unity of wisdom. Moreover, by engaging alternative positions, it provides the reader with tools to defend the Catholic worldview against those reductive philosophies which only deprive life of its full meaning.
Download or read book Knowledge of Self written by Supreme Understanding and published by Supreme Design Publishing. This book was released on 2009-07-30 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you know who - and what - you are? Do you know who you're meant to be? Do you know how to find the answers to questions like these? Knowledge of Self is the result of a process of self-discovery, but few of us know where to begin when we're ready to start looking deeper. Although self-actualization is the highest of all human needs, it is said that only 5% of people ever attain this goal. In the culture of the Nation of Gods and Earths, commonly known as the Five Percent, students are instructed that they must first learn themselves, then their worlds, and then what they must do in order to transform their world for the better. This often intense process has produced thousands of revolutionary thinkers in otherwise desperate environments, where poverty and hopelessness dominate. Until now, few mainstream publications have captured the brilliant yet practical perspectives of these luminary men and women. Knowledge of Self: A Collection of Writings on the Science of Everything in Life presents the thoughts of Five Percenters, both young and old, male and female, from all over the globe, in their own words. Through essays, poems, and even how-to articles, this anthology presents readers with an accurate portrait of what the Five Percent study and teach, as well as sound direction on how to answer timeless questions like: Who am I, and why am I here? Why is there so much injustice in the world, and what can be done about it? Who is God and where on Earth is he? How do I improve myself without losing myself? Why are people of color in the situations they're in? What can we do about the global problems of racism and poverty?
Download or read book Christian Theology and the Secular University written by Paul A. Macdonald, Jr. and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-02-24 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If the secular university by definition is non-sectarian or non-denominational, then how can it accommodate a discipline like Christian theology? Doesn’t the traditional goal of theological study, which is to attain knowledge of the divine, fundamentally conflict with the main goal of secular academic study, which is to attain knowledge about ourselves and the world in which we live? So why should theology be admitted, or even care about being admitted, into secular academic life? And even if theology were admitted, what contribution to secular academic life could it make? Working from a Christian philosophical and theological perspective but also engaging a wide range of theologians, philosophers, and religious studies scholars, Christian Theology and the Secular University takes on these questions, arguing that Christian theology does belong in the secular university because it provides distinct resources that the secular university needs if it is going to fulfill what should be its main epistemic and educative ends. This book offers a fresh and unique perspective to scholars working in the disciplines of theology, philosophy, and religious studies, and to those in other academic disciplines who are interested in thinking critically and creatively about the place and nature of theological study within the secular university.
