Love
Always Answers
by
Diane
Berke
The
core practices of A Course in Miracles are forgiveness
and listening to the Holy Spirit, our inner teacher, the
voice for God within us.
This
book is offered as a simple sharing from my heart, to
give readers new to the Course some feeling for what this
path of healing is like, and readers already working with
the Course some feeling of companionship on the journey.
What
has been sustaining me and giving me the courage to
travel through the darkness toward light, through fear
and pain toward love, is the foundation of faith I've
developed to this point on my journey. And through this
experience, I continue to learn, in an ever deeper way,
that Love does answer us—Love always answers.

Return
to Love - Reflections on the Principles of A Course In
Miracles
by
Marianne Williamson
Return
to Love
presents the principles of A Course in Miracles with
simplicity and clarity. The
Course, a self-study program of spiritual psychotherapy
contained in three books, claims no monopoly on God. It
is a statement of a universal spiritual curriculum. There’s
only one truth, spoken different ways, and the Course
is just one path to it out of many. If it's your path,
however, you know it. For me, the Course was a break-through
experience intellectually, emotionally, and psychologically.

Goodbye
to Guilt
by
Jerry
Jampolsky, M.D.
As
I look back, I realize that my life has been one of intense
seeking without knowing what it was I was looking for.
At times I sought after such things as health, self-esteem,
money, material possessions, prestige, social status,
professional recognition, security for the future, and
friends I could trust and love.
Despite
my success in pursuing most of these, I never experienced
the happiness they were supposed to bring. It never occurred
to me that I had the wrong goal, and that by searching
for happiness outside myself, I was looking in the wrong
place. I had absolutely no conscious awareness that I
was suffering from a self-imposed state of spiritual deprivation.
I
began to change my way of looking at the world in l975.
Until then I had considered myself a militant atheist,
and the last thing I was consciously interested in was
being on a spiritual pathway that would lead to God. In
that year I was introduced to a set of three books, a
self-taught course in spiritual transformation, titled
A Course in Miracles.

The Gift
of Change
by Marianne
Williamson
The
only way to gain power in a world that is moving too fast
is to learn to slow down. And the only way to spread one's
influence wide is to learn to go deep.
The
world we want for ourselves and our children will not
emerge from electronic speed but rather from a spiritual
stillness that takes root in our souls. Then, and only
then, will we create a world that reflects the heart instead
of shattering it.

Seat
of the Soul
by
Gary
Zukav
Gary
Zukav explains that we
are evolving from a species that pursues power based upon
the perceptions of the five senses, external power, into
a species that pursues authentic power—power that is based
upon the perceptions and values of the spirit. Using
his scientist's eye and philosopher's heart, Zukav illustrates
how the emerging values of the spirit are changing marriages
into spiritual partnerships, psychology into spiritual
psychology, and transforming our everyday lives.

The
New Earth
by
Eckhart Tolle
In
his insightful look into humanity's ego-based thinking,
Eckhart Tolle provides practical teachings for waking
up to a new, enlightened mind-set. If you're seeking a
more loving self and a more loving planet, A New Earth
has the tools to begin your transformation.
Eckhart
Tolle takes us beyond our own lives to show that we now
have an opportunity to birth a new, more loving world.
This
involves a radical inner leap of consciousness from the
current identification with our ego to an entirely new
way of thinking about who we are.

The
Power of Now
by
Eckhart Tolle
To
make the journey into The Power of Now we will need to
leave our analytical mind and its false created self,
the ego, behind. From
the beginning of the first chapter we move rapidly into
a significantly higher altitude where one breathes a lighter
air, the air of the spiritual.
Many
of us will find that our biggest obstacle to this realization
is our relationships, especially our intimate relationships.
We come to see that our relationships are yet another
doorway into spiritual enlightenment if we use them wisely,
meaning if we use them to become more conscious and therefore
more loving human beings.
The result? Real communion between self and others.

What
Really Matters
by
Tony Schwartz
In
1988, at the height of his career as a journalist and
co-author of a #1 bestseller Donald Trump’s, The Art of
the Deal, Tony Shwartz hit an unexpected wall.
Why
did the success he’d sought for so long suddenly feel
empty? What
was a truly meaningful and complete life?
His
search for answers took him from a meditation retreat
in the mountains of Utah to a biofeedback laboratory in
Kansas.
"Our
normal waking consciousness, rational consciousness,
as we call it, is but one special type of consciousness,
whilst all about it, parted from it by the filmiest
of screens, there lie potential forms of consciousness
entirely different." -William
James
"It
is because we don't know Who we are, because we are
unaware that the Kingdom of Heaven is within us, that
we behave in the generally silly, the often insane,
the sometimes criminal ways that are so characteristically
human." -Aldous
Huxley
