Most of us think there are only two possible answers to the question: Do you have a soul? Either we have a soul, which will live beyond death, or there is no such thing as a soul, and when we die, nothing of us remains. But what if neither of those answers is correct? What if, instead, we are not born with a soul, but we have the possibility of growing one? Our potential for growing a soul was recognized by early gnostic Christians who practiced esoteric Christianity, which dates back to and originated in ancient pre-sand Egypt. It is a sacred science of being, a long hidden, esoteric teaching that G. I. Gurdjieff brought to the West early in the last century and is called the Fourth Way.How do we grow a soul? Gurdjieff tells us, The whole secret is that one cannot work for a future life without working for this one. We must learn how to be present to ourselves in each moment, to integrate body, senses, mind. The techniques and practices Gurdjieff brought in the Fourth Way can show us how. Is there life after death? Thats the primordial human question. Yes, you have a soul. How do you know? Isnt it just societal belief? If you have no soulokay, heres how to live after dying. (William Patrick Patterson, author of Georgi Ivanovitch Gurdjieff: The Man, The Teaching, His Mission) For those who have felt the wish or recognized the need to grow in themselves something higher, the Levitans introduce Gurdjieffs authentic way of self-transformation to do so. They also explore other ways stemming from the same source, throughout centuries and millennia up to the present time, showing how Gurdjieff presented methods that completed what had been mostly lost, forgotten, or left out. (Mary Ellen Korman, author of A Womans Work with Gurdjieff, Ramana Maharshi, Krishnamurti, Anandamayi Ma & Pak Subuh) Essential reading conveying with unique clarity and directness a distillation of the deep spiritual ideas contained in Gurdjieffs Fourth Way teaching. Faced with the question of soul, Ron and Claire Levitan lead us to the deep esoteric meaning of that word and the responsibility it carries in giving significance to our lives, the Earth and beyond. Gurdjieffs language of neologisms, often inaccessible, is presented in a straightforward manner, explaining the direct path to higher consciousness and conscience. If youve ever wondered what soul is or what is meant by growing a soulthis is the book youve been waiting for. (Teresa Adams, instructor, Haida yoga, the Online Fourth Way School)

Humanity has been given access to the secrets of oneness, but we need to learn how to work with them. Working with Oneness brings mysticism into the center of the marketplace, into the world of business and technology, and shows how we can work with it in everyday life. The dynamic energy of oneness has the potential to heal the planet and revolutionize life more than we can imagine, but it requires our individual participation and awareness to become fully alive. The energy of oneness is already present but waiting to be lived, and Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee provides a blueprint for working consciously with this energy. As we understand how our consciousness affects the whole fabric of life, the potential for real global change comes alive. Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee stresses the need to change from hierarchical, patriarchal power structures to organic patterns that allow for the free flow of energy and ideas. Through these patterns the dynamic energy of oneness can become part of everyday life. Working with Oneness includes a number of additional important topics, including: the changing energy structure of the planet and how to work with it; the power of individual consciousness; the danger of the desire for spiritual security; the return of joy to everyday life; the awakening of the heart of the world; a new understanding of magic; the use of the imagination; and mystical participation in life with the energy of oneness. Working with Oneness offers guidance on how to work with the energy of oneness, to learn how to participate in life free of the patterns of the past, so that the divine can come alive in every moment of every day. Working with Oneness is mystical activism at its most potent. “There is a growing and eager audience waiting for a vision of unity consciousness... Working with Oneness offers a salutary antidote to worn-out antagonisms. It challenges readers to join other kindred souls in a mystical activism that can bring new hope to humanity.” —Spirituality & Health “A book filled with wonder and the kind of insights that can leap out to your heart and gladden you for having read them. It's words are simple and straightforward—always a blessing—but its message it the most vital and important for the time in which we live. I recommend it.” —David Spangler, author, Blessings: the Art and the Practice

A completely new review of the soul is now derived from a common inheritance of the ancient heritage and mysticism, as well as the personal experiences of the author. The divine Absolute as everything-that-is expresses itself as the everything-that-can-be. It does so by means of the process of individuation. The first individuation of the awareness of the Absolute itself is the monad of consciousness known to us as the soul. Souls are monads of the consciousness of the divine Absolute, its individual emanation or manifesting. These monads of the divine consciousness or souls create all the potential life forms in order to be able to express all the potentials of the divine Absolute. They create cosmos and all the life in it. Every soul individualizes further so as to experience all the possibilities of life in a finer and more accurate way. The final or the finishing individuation of the awareness of the soul takes place in the shape of man's being and life. Individual souls get incarnated and begin to gather various impressions while going through the drama of life in Earth and the consciousness of those impressions they bring back to the divine Absolute as the awareness of the very existence, as its awareness of itself. At the end of the reincarnation cycle, once they have learnt the very meaning of the existence, souls go back to its source, to what they actually are, to the divine Absolute, although this is what they have been all along during the course of their illusory existence, for nothing at all is possible outside the divine Absolute. Everything is merely it itself. In the soul of man this knowing is manifested in its strongest and purest way. A completely new review of the soul is now derived from a common inheritance of the ancient heritage and mysticism, as well as the personal experiences of the author, the practice of hypnotic regression and discoveries of quantum physics that only in the presence of a conscious observer - the soul - the matter takes a form of a physical reality as it is known to us. All the activities of the soul that have an impact on man's life, from life-saving interventions of the soul events in everyday life, inspiration to the spiritual work and creativity that is the basis of human civilization. Souls as the carriers of intelligent design in nature. Communication between the mind and the soul. A detailed description of the reasons for obsession as a "loss of soul." The evil in the world and the goodness of the soul. Self-realization, resurrection or enlightenment as the knowledge of the divine nature of the soul while still in the body. The discipline of meditation as a practice of self-realization of the soul. CONTENTS: The origin, or where we come from The manifestation of everything through seven phases or proportions Manifestation of everything through five dimensions Human body as the foundation of personality The dual nature of the emanation of God: the oblivion and the awakening Organic life as the foundation of the human body Human body as the foundation of personality The complete personality as the foundation of the soul The organic world as the stage for the drama of the personality Personality as the personification of the Divine Divine as the foundation of the soul The presence of the Divine as a testimony The mechanical manifestation of the organic world The manifestation of the organic world as the basis for consciousness The circle of creation: inorganic world, organic world and man On the incarnations of souls before the organic life on Earth The division of souls: the young, developed and highly developed Soul being born in a body ...and a lot more.

At this time in the development of the Earth species, the brain/mind does not have a large enough data acquisition and computing capacity to take in the multidimensions of the walk-in process. The characteristics of these dimensions would allow for many types of spirit activity on the Earth plane beyond the simple (actually, simplistic) explanation of a single soul unit changing places with another single soul. Spirit and consciousness are more fluid and variable than your world has considered. We will tell you that spirit guides and guardian angels surround everyone who is participating in these expanded spirit processes. The increasing number of walk-ins at this time is in service to the ascension, or step up in consciousness, of the species. These participants can always call on guides for assistance. We Pleiadians are guides in the project. We are always available and we wish you peace. -- The Pleiadian Light

Addressing the pervasive longing for meaning and fulfillment in this time of crisis, Nature and the Human Soul introduces a visionary ecopsychology of human development that reveals how fully and creatively we can mature when soul and wild nature guide us. Depth psychologist and wilderness guide Bill Plotkin presents a model for a human life span rooted in the cycles and qualities of the natural world, a blueprint for individual development that ultimately yields a strategy for cultural transformation. If it is true, as Plotkin and others observe, that we live in a culture dominated by adolescent habits and desires, then the enduring societal changes we so desperately need won’t happen until we individually and collectively evolve into an engaged, authentic adulthood. With evocative language and personal stories, including those of elders Thomas Berry and Joanna Macy, this book defines eight stages of human life — Innocent, Explorer, Thespian, Wanderer, Soul Apprentice, Artisan, Master, and Sage — and describes the challenges and benefits of each. Plotkin offers a way of progressing from our current egocentric, aggressively competitive, consumer society to an ecocentric, soul-based one that is sustainable, cooperative, and compassionate. At once a primer on human development and a manifesto for change, Nature and the Human Soul fashions a template for a more mature, fulfilling, and purposeful life — and a better world.

Traveling Home Together is the first book in a series of non-fiction writings, under the Considerations of the Soul trademark. This book takes the reader through a sweet metaphorical journey of traveling home from school, like I did for many years. I now consider planet Earth a Universal School filled with family, friends, communities, and lots and lots of lessons. Essentially, what we're all doing is traveling home from Earth School together. This book is a wonderful reminder of that simple truth. Each chapter is an essay that asks the reader to consider a community of thought as it relates to Consciousness. The essays also encourage the reader to look withIN the Soul/Self, rather than withOUT into the external Egoic world for those deep concerning questions of who am I, really? and why am I here? This book will most likely resonate with newly Awakened Souls seeking out gentle guidance and insights that will assist with the personal growth of their Soul.As a Light Worker, Way Shower and Frequency Holder, I have dedicated much time in meditation and in the study of consciously living New Earth realities here. Now, on my purposeful path I'm thrilled to be in service as a New Earth Representative. I set forth my highest and purest intention to assist anyone that encounters my content.

"Courage on Bataan and Beyond" is a comprehensive story about Abel F. Ortega's life during the Bataan Death March and Japanese imprisonment written by his son. Abel will take the reader with him from his childhood days when he would sit in a rocking chair and dream about the Far East to defending the Bataan Peninsula in a last ditch effort to keep the Japanese from taking the Philippines. Abel narrates how his family's prayers and his faith in God helped him to survive the infamous Bataan Death March, three-and-a-half years as a POW and two Hell Ship Voyages. This book will evoke both laughter and tears as one follows Abel from captivity to liberation. In his three-and-a-half years as a POW, he endured near starvation, hard labor, torture and the indescribable and inhumane cruelty from his captors before being set free August 15th, 1945. There were very few POW's who survived the Japanese brutality of Bataan and their following captivity, and of these, not many are still with us. Today at 85, Abel feels his story needs to be told so that the brave soldiers of Bataan will not be forgotten once again.
