You've probably asked yourself one of life's most frustrating
questions: "If God is love, why do we live in a world of fear and
suffering?" Did you come up with a satisfying answer? Many have
given up, deciding the dichotomy proves that God cannot exist. But
this is a question that deserves a meaningful answer, one that must
go far beyond, "just believe." Sages who have experienced the
Divine directly (gnosis) discovered the answer. As a result, they
lived a life of spiritual fearlessness. Does that sound impossible?
If so, than why bother with a spiritual quest? Why not stick with
what the world has to offer? But you were not meant to seek
continually, but to find. You were not meant to keep wondering, you
were meant to understand. You were not meant to feel disconnected
from the Divine, but to enjoy a direct, personal relationship. You
were not meant to live in fear, but to rest in complete peace and
security that can only result from experiencing truth first hand.
Jesus was not the only sage who promised, "You will know the truth
and the truth will set you free." Although many religious teachings
have been unable to stand up to scientific scrutiny, you'll find
that the words of the fearless sages we'll be examining are
strengthened by it. This liberating information was not meant for a
special few, so what keeps most of us from recognizing the simple
truths that can free us from fear? Let the words of sages and
scientists hand you the keys you need to unlock the door to
fearless spirituality.
The Gospel of Thomas contains only 114 of Jesus' sayings, but its
powerful message has rocked conventional understanding of who Jesus
was and what he taught. In Thomas, Jesus is not a savior, a messiah
or a Christ. He does not die for anyone's sins, and resurrection is
not even mentioned. He is not considered the only-begotten Son of
God, God incarnate or even a master over his followers. If he's not
portrayed in any of the roles that are customarily assigned to him,
what part does he play? In the Gospel of Thomas, Jesus is a human
who has had his spiritual eyes opened through gnosis, a direct,
personal experience of the Divine. His teachings are based on an
understanding of the universe that quantum research is currently
confirming. When we listen, his words can correct the
misperceptions that fill our world with fear. We all have a choice
to make. We can take a "quantum" approach to Jesus' teachings or
cling to an outdated interpretation of his words that cannot be
reconciled with scientific research. We've discovered that the
synergy of science and spirituality has the power to transform your
life. We invite you to join us in exploring Jesus' parables and
sayings from a quantum perspective. But like Jesus, it is not our
intention to give you more words to follow, but to offer a reason
for you to want to experience the Divine for yourself.
The Beginning of Fearlessness: Quantum Prodigal Son is a spiritual
quest and a scientific adventure. At its foundation, fear is the
direct result of our misperception of the universe and our place in
it. Jesus' parable of the prodigal son, combined with recent
discoveries in the field of quantum physics and the Gnostic
Gospels, corrects the misperceptions that rob us of the joy and
peace we were all meant to experience.
Most of us assume the words "religious" and "spiritual" mean the
same thing. And why not, since the two words are often used
interchangeably. But that wasn't always the case. Does it matter
whether you're religious or spiritual? Can the way you approach the
Divine affect your happiness? Discover the hidden meanings in these
words and uncover a forgotten approach to Ultimate Reality.
