Unfortunately, very few people these days talk about real values in
life. What we stand for in life, and are we living up to these
values are worth pondering. Are our aspirations in tune with the
real purpose of life? It is the values that remind us often what to
aspire in life. Most people value life and its achievements from
the perspective of wealth and richness, but do not recognize trust,
honesty, and contentment as forward looking attributes that help in
overall satisfaction. Giving importance to external growth leaving
behind inner development often leads to unbalance in life devoid of
overall satisfaction. Much of the troubles in this world are that
true values of life have narrowed down, skewed, ignored and
misunderstood. This book deliberates different aspects of life in
terms of personal, moral, spiritual, family and social values and
how these can enrich life and fill its purpose. A wide range of
topics include How to live an easier life; Thoughts on simplifying
life; Virtues of Integrity; Mistakes we generally make; Control on
impulsive mind; Being Successful in life; Benefits from silence;
Communication with inner self; Creating love for others; How to
think positive; How moral values get reinforced; Belief in natural
justice; What is spirituality; Understanding self; How to find God;
What does death mean to us; Good family values; Being part of whole
universe; Universal brotherhood; Towards developing good values.
Attempt has been made to describe large issues that are outcome of
misdirected value system, and how best a person can move ahead in
life by focusing on core values. The idea of writing this book is
to facilitate readers to pause and think about what they aspire,
and are these aspirations in tandem with broad purpose in life.
Richard Ingalese's lectures on the human mind, and its interactions
with supernatural phenomena and lore, together form a classic work
of occult guidance. Writing at the opening of the 20th century; a
time when occultism underwent significant popularity, Richard
Ingalese concentrates on topics which pertain directly to the human
mind. Its capacity to interpret and affect the world around it,
including realms unseen, is the central theme of this book, which
acts as a superb introduction to the myriad occult phenomena in our
lives. Use of what Ingalese terms the 'divine mind' is the way in
which followers of the occult gain experience and knowledge of
things beyond ordinary perception. Yet closeness with the Supreme
Power is not a simple matter of mere contemplation; there are
certain conditions of temperament and behavior that prepare a
person for knowledge. Ingalese advocates calm introspection,
self-control, and a harnessing of emotions which can distract from
attainment.
To anyone with eyes to see and ears to hear, it is obvious that
life as we know it is reaching critical mass-environmentally,
socially, politically, and spiritually. For thousands of years
there have been prophecies of a planetary "shift" of great
magnitude, moving us into a higher and brighter new world. This is
the autobiography of one of the world's most significant spiritual
leaders, with visions of the future of our planet's destiny-of the
evolution of benevolent celestial and human leadership into a truly
Divine Administration. The Divine New Order And The Dawn Of The
First Stage Of Light And Life is the story of Gabriel of Urantia
and the EcoVillage and spiritual community he co-founded in 1989
with Niann Emerson Chase and the beginnings of the worldwide
Spiritualution SM movement they created together over the last 24
years. Originally written in 1989, this 2013 Third Edition
chronicles the flowering and fruition of Global Community
Communications Alliance (also known as Divine Administration),
including the relocation and growth of the First Planetary Sacred
Home-a theological world center, cultural crossroads, and planetary
spiritual headquarters. Many of the prophecies that were written in
the Bible and other sacred texts have come to pass or are happening
now. Some of this book is prophecy-with scenarios that have already
come true and some with outcomes yet to be revealed. That outcome
is partially in your hands. Discover the Creator's plan to
establish a Divine New Order for our world and how you can help to
bring about the dawn of the first stage of light and life-to
overcome the existing death and darkness of our world in peril by
bringing genuine hope, real love, and true justice to every corner
of the planet. Spiritual leader Gabriel of Urantia is an Audio
Fusion Material Complement (for further explanation see The Cosmic
Family volumes), father of four children, activist, teacher,
musician, and author. He lives in Tumacacori, Arizona at Avalon
Organic Gardens & EcoVillage. Together, spiritual leaders and
teachers Gabriel of Urantia and Niann Emerson Chase-who co-share
the Mandate of the Bright and Morning Star (see The Cosmic Family,
Volume I)-have established more than two dozen outreach and
educational ministries, touching all facets of life, health, and
reality. This book chronicles the unfolding of that incredible
story and the life of this very unique soul, Gabriel of Urantia.
The Divine New Order And The Dawn Of The First Stage Of Light And
Life has the most extensive Glossary of the highest spiritual terms
and concepts on the planet today and is the only one of such
quality. The new Third Edition of The Divine New Order And The Dawn
Of The First Stage Of Light And Life also includes a wonderful
color photo gallery depicting more than 40 historical and
contemporary aspects of the life of Gabriel of Urantia and Avalon
Organic Gardens & EcoVillage-comprised of 100] international
men, women, and children.
