Paulo Coelho – The Alchemist

Created on Saturday, 28 March 2009 16:40

The Alchemist presents a simple fable, based on simple truths and places it in a highly unique situation. Brazilian storyteller Paulo Coehlo introduces Santiago, an Andalusian shepherd boy who one night dreams of a distant treasure in the Egyptian pyramids. And so he's off, leaving Spain to literally follow his dream.

Along the way, he meets many spiritual messengers who come in unassuming forms such as a camel driver and a well-read Englishman. In one of the Englishman's books, Santiago first learns about the alchemists – men who believed that if a metal were heated for many years, it would free itself of all its individual properties and what was left would be the "Soul of the World." Of course he does eventually meet an alchemist and the ensuing student-teacher relationship clarifies much of the boy's misguided agenda, while also emboldening him to stay true to his dreams. "My heart is afraid that it will have to suffer," the boy confides to the alchemist one night as they look up at a moonless night. "Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself," the alchemist replies. "And that no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dreams, because every second of the search is a second's encounter with God and with eternity."

 

Ken Keyes Jr. – Handbook To Higher Consciousness

Created on Sunday, 29 March 2009 11:31

I first picked this book up about 20 years ago just to see what kind of a silly book would have a title like that. However, after having read just a couple of pages I realized that it actually contained some wisdom. After reading a few more pages I decided to buy it and I can honestly say that it's been the single most helpful book I've ever read in my life. I've probably read it a dozen times since then and it's the one book that's actually changed my life. For anyone willing to make the effort these methods truly do work and you can start feeling the benefits almost immediately.

One thing that may put off some readers is that it contains a few leftover 60's words like "groovy," but if one can overlook that, the underlying message is valuable beyond words. Ken Keyes draws somewhat on Buddhist ideas and other philosophies (as he notes in the introduction), but only a genius could organize them into such a practical and usable system.

Maurie D. Pressman and Patricia Joudry – Twin Souls

Created on Sunday, 29 March 2009 11:05

Not only is it no accident that you are seeking out information on twin souls or twin flames at this time, it is no accident that you find each other. This is a time when many twin souls are reuniting. Authors Joudry and Pressman describe the Divine Plan of the Soul's masculine and feminine aspects, seemingly separate yet eternally linked, as each journey through individual growth to at last reunite into conscious soul unfoldment together.

This book clearly explains the process, provides you with the steps of preparation, the keys to recognizing your twin, recounts stories of several twin soul encounters and inspires your own growth. It is written in poetic prose that is filled with the awe and the rapture appropriate to the momentousness of two twins coming together in consciousness and unconditional love.
