A profound guide to embracing your Divine nature

Explains how to embrace the paradox of the spiritual paththat we are already reflections of the Divineand manifest our souls transcendent nature in everyday life

Provides contemplative and philosophical tools to support the journey to experience the Sacred

Explores mythic stories of soul development and intuition found in Maya and Pythagorean traditions, ancient Egyptian thought, and Zoroastrianism

In the mind of the Divine, every person has Infinite, Eternal, and Absolute Worth. But how do we manifest our transcendent nature in everyday life? How can we construct our lives in the material world so they reflect the Divine nature of our souls?

Through his own story of spiritual self-realization, Douglas M. Gillette explores the paradox that lies at the heart of the quest for union with the Divine. As the author explains, those of us on the mystical path are each working on our souls to better reflect their Divine nature, yet we are already reflections of the Divine. To help you embrace this paradox, the author provides mythic stories of soul development and intuition from Maya and Pythagorean traditions, ancient Egyptian thought, and Zoroastrianism. He shows how embracing the power of emotions like wonder, dread, and awe provide a mirror that allows us to see ourselves as infinite and immortal persons on finite and mortal adventures. In addition to myth, the authors synthesis of Neoplatonism and Panentheism provides readers with contemplative tools to fulfill their mystical journey.

Bringing together a wide range of contrasting worldviews and ideas assumed to be in opposition, the author shows how unifying views that are often considered polar opposites is a primary vehicle for actualizing our core purpose as souls in the physical world. He deeply investigates the emergence of personhood as we build our material lives, and he reveals the thrill of actually entering into the Sacred through the paradoxical journey of soul makingbecoming in the physical world what we already are in the infinity and eternity of the Divine Psyche.

Recenzijas

If you subscribe to materialism, you had better leave Soul Making unopened. If, however, you have a hunch that our reality is a minute fraction of all that is, that beyond common sense is a set of nested entrancements, all nurtured by a person, then read on. Strongly heterodox Douglas Gillette reveals new worlds, but be warnednot all may be to your comfort. * Simon Conway Morris, author of From Extraterrestrials to Animal Minds * Soul Making will leave you breathless. A winding, intense, and illuminating journey into the realms we can experience when we surrender to the infinite power within. This tantalizing, visceral, and strikingly personal book captures the profound experiences that await us as we delve deep into our being and open our minds to experiencing what we cannot yet imagine. * Isabel Unraveled, writer, coach, and creator of Mind Mine * I commend Doug for his bravery in writing this book. Its unlike any other book Ive read, covering his spiritual experiences from childhood to adulthood, from seeing spirits to exploring existential questions. These are conversations I often have with myself, and its comforting to know others share similar experiences and questions. * Darron Brown, host of A Podcast for Men * Douglas M. Gillette offers a portrait of a universe that is loving, inclusive, broad, and deeply personal. He seamlessly weaves seemingly impossible theories together and gives the reader the encouragement to imagine what This Life is all about. Soul Making is a tour of the Universes personhood-making activities inviting you to become all that you already are in the dance of life. * Drew Littlejohns, Ph.D. candidate, lecturer for entrepreneurship accelerators, and owner of VH Nutri * The infinite and the finite, the ordinary and the divine are inexorably united within us. After a journey lasting a lifetime, the author reveals this final truth: there is an unending love at the core of our being. * William R. Mistele, author of Encounters with Mermaids * Drawing us away from the limits of rationality, Douglas M. Gillette explores altered states of consciousness (and even memories and nostalgia) as an opening to a Divine reality. Deeply contemplative, Gillette speaks from experience as a lifelong mystic who understands the worlds metaphysical traditions. Soul Making is a timely reminder not only of our connection to the Divine butat a time in which rationality might become the prerogative of Artificial Intelligencethat we possess both the power of vision and an integral connection to the sacred. * Angel Millar, author of The Three Stages of Initiatic Spirituality * I have been a student and friend of Doug Gillettes for 35 years. He has a remarkable gift for communicating the experience of an encounter with the divine! Anyone on a path to experience the divine would benefit from a close reading of Soul Making. * David Kaar, past chair of ManKind Project International and leader emeritus of the New Warrior Train * Douglas Gillettes account of his spiritual awakening is an intimate and affecting reminder of the prevailing mysticism that vibrates throughout our so-called everyday lives. He is at once a teacher and a student, wise and humble. A lovely book. * Daniel Noah, cofounder of SpectreVision *
