“When Yahweh became a man, he was a homeless vagrant. He walked through Palestine proclaiming that a mysterious kingdom had arrived...He called people to follow him, and that meant walking.” — Charles Foster Humans are built to wander. History is crisscrossed by their tracks. Sometimes there are obvious reasons for it: to get better food for themselves or their animals; to escape weather, wars, or plague. But sometimes they go—at great expense and risk—in the name of God, seeking a place that feels sacred, that speaks to the heart. God himself seems to have a bias toward the nomad. The road is a favored place — a place of epiphany. That’s all very well if you are fit and free. But what if you are paralyzed by responsibility or disease? What if the only journey you can make is to the office, the school, or the bathroom? Best-selling English author and adventurer Charles Foster has wandered quite a bit, and he knows what can be found (and lost) on a sacred journey. He knows that pilgrimage involves doing something with whatever faith you have. And faith, like muscle, likes being worked. Exploring the history of pilgrimage across cultures and religions, Foster uses tales of his own travels to examine the idea of approaching each day as a pilgrimage, and he offers encouragement to anyone who wants to experience a sacred journey. The result is an intoxicating, highly readable blend of robust theology and lyrical anecdote — an essential guidebook for every traveler in search of the truth about God, himself, and the world. When Jesus said “Follow me,” he meant us to hit the road with him. The Sacred Journey will show you how. The Ancient Practices There is a hunger in every human heart for connection, primitive and raw, to God. To satisfy it, many are beginning to explore traditional spiritual disciplines used for centuries . . . everything from fixed-hour prayer to fasting to sincere observance of the Sabbath. Compelling and readable, the Ancient Practices series is for every spiritual sojourner, for every Christian seeker who wants more.

Why is this journey important? The words of Ascended Master Kuthumi may give an answer to this question: The key to a successful journey to Bimini will be in your abilities to access the Command's coding systems. What I mean is that you will receive the symbolism that will make your journey both intriguing and exciting. But reality reveals that the intrigue will actually came from your abilities to decode the keys. In the keys are contained the secrets to the power that Atlantis once knew. This power was the connection of mind energy to the source. It was harnessed energy of the sound frequencies, that must be combined with the color frequencies, for manifestation to occur. The key to the future for planet Earth is the harnessing of this energy, for when the decade of cleansing is complete, much that is around you today will have to be reborn. Therefore, one of the ways this will occur is to rediscover the paths and the keys of that former lifetime that will be used to rebuild the civilization as you visualize it to be.
