An inspirational encounter with the world of Christ, and an uplifting study of the man, his times and his teachings. Destined to be a classic.

Sometimes lyrical, sometimes light-hearted, and occasionally irreverent, this book explores "life, the Universe, and Everything," emphasizing that true understanding arises from recognizing everything as part of One Being. This realization aligns various aspects of human knowledge, including scientific discoveries and universal religious and mystical teachings. The narrative draws on ancient perennial wisdom while offering a contemporary perspective, posing as many questions as it answers. The publisher, Science of the Soul Research Centre, focuses on spirituality and promotes an understanding of the common spiritual power inherent in all life. It encourages exploration of the inner spiritual journey, emphasizing that the essence of this experience is universal, transcending creed, culture, and time. The SSRC aims to dissolve barriers between religions and explores spiritual truth from diverse viewpoints, suggesting that while expressions of spirituality may vary, they ultimately converge towards a shared Reality. This work presents a reconciliatory view in the ongoing dialogue between science and religion, aiming to foster a better understanding of these often contradictory fields. Through its insights, it seeks to bridge gaps and encourage a more integrated approach to spirituality and knowledge.

ew questions concern man more closely than those of his own origins. How did man and the other species originate? Why does the fossil record of the last 500 million years show such ever-changing spectrum of creatures? What causes the vast repeating cycles of extinction and renewal of species on our planet? Natural Creation or Natural Selection? is a ground-breaking study which points out that we miss a fundamental dimension in our study of life on earth if we forget to look at mind, consciousness and life as primary and formative factors. By applying an understanding of the formative mind, the author presents a radically different yet complete explanation of the fossil record and the diversity of organic life, which not only fits the facts exactly, but also accords fully with the universal philosophy expressed by mystics throughout the ages.

L'étonnement de deux voyageurs persans est prétexte à une peinture sans tabou de la fin du règne de Louis XIV. Les particularismes du temps, tout comme les faiblesses et les inclinations naturelles de la nature humaine, sont observés d'autant plus attentivement qu'ils le sont d'un point de vue extérieur. Usbek, principal locuteur de ce roman épistolaire où les lettres s'entrecroisent pour créer un écheveau d'impressions et d'intrigues, a quitté Ispahan pour des raisons politiques. Il dirige donc son sérail depuis l'Europe et échange ses impressions avec ses amis demeurés en Perse, avec Rhédi, en voyage d'étude à Venise, puis avec son compagnon de route Rica, qui préfèrera le tumulte de Paris et la curiosité qu'il y suscite au calme de la campagne environnante élue par Usbek. Ce dernier, si lucide quant aux vices du royaume de France, si critique quant aux traditions européennes, se laisse pourtant duper par ses femmes. Les Lettres persanes , première oeuvre de Montesquieu, publiées dans l'anonymat en 1721, connurent un succès retentissant et furent rééditées plusieurs fois au cours du XVIIIe siècle.
