Dear friends,
Ravani Rah and I have just published a new book - Awakening as a Human*Divine Being. It is available on amazon.com and xlibris.com. Here is a summary of the book, followed by the table of contents:
In this book, we incorporate wisdom from Zoroastrianism on the angels of transformation and the Archangel of the Earth; from Ibn ‘Arabi on the barzakh (the interface between manifestation and subtle reality), creative imagination, and the human-divine relationship; from Hazrat Inayat Khan, Pir Vilayat, and Pir Zia on contemporary Sufi teachings which state that every desire begins with a divine impulse and that the purpose of spirituality is awakening of divinity in life; as well as from realizations from the authors’ meditations, inspirations, and spiritual dialogues which form the basis of what they call the Gabrielite Work. Everyone has the potential to awaken to their existence in multiple realms of reality, and to contribute in a unique way from the fullness of their being to the never ending human-divine co-creative process.
The book is based on a series of twenty-two classes Ravani Rah and I have given called Birthing Your Resurrection Body, Living in Your Resurrection Body, and Becoming a Human-Divine Being, as well as on six meditation classes I gave on Finding Light in Times of Darkness, Using the Breath for Clarity and Presence, Perspective, The Threefold Nature of Reality as a Dynamic Relationship, Breakthroughs on the Spiritual Journey, and Completing the Circuit of Sacredness. It has a brief foreword by Pir Zia which is a blessing for the book.
We hope you will enjoy it.
