The Art of Talking to Christ: The Theory and Practices of Christian Mysticism (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781466299689)

If you have felt a need to connect to something greater than yourself ... a longing to find meaning to life ... a yearning to discover a sanctuary of serenity and peace ... a hunger to have your heart and soul touched by that Divine love that brings comfort to life ... a passionate desire to have a closer relationshp with God and Christ, then this book is for you. The book provides intuitive insight into the art of talking to Christ, and introduces you to Christian Mysticism, which encompasses all those who long for intimate communion with God through Christ. This form of mysticism is not based on eastern religions or occultism; rather, it is a vital part of the Christian heritage and the very core of spirituality. When Jesus said, "I and the Father are one," (Jn. 10:30), Christian mysticism is about achieving that same transforming union. The Art of Talking to Christ will show you how to develop a more rewarding spiritual experience, obtain a higher sense of awareness through connecting with the Divine Source, and help you realize that the Power is within you to achieve this. It makes no difference what your religious background or beliefs are, Christian mysticism is universal, available to all, and is the spiritual path to finding true joy and ecstasy. This book will serve as a guide on your journey towards that goal. I wish you well along the way. "You need not go to Heaven to see Christ or regale yourself with Christ. Nor do you need to speak out loud, as if He were far away. Nor do you need wings like a dove so as to fly far to Him. Settle yourself in solitude, and you will come upon Christ in yourself for the Kingdom of Heaven is within. Then treat Him as your Father and relate your troubles and concerns to Him. Those who can in this manner shut themselves up in the little Heaven of their own hearts, where He dwells who made Heaven and Earth, let them be sure that they walk in the most excellent of ways, on the path with the Christ. In my first book, "Are You an Indigo? Discover Your Authentic Self" I discussed discovering your authentic self and the importance of reconnecting to the Divine Source. I wrote about how critical it is to become aware of the difference between your Ego and your Authentic Self. It is this awareness that you are not your Ego and the knowledge of your authentic self that enables you to tap into the power within, realizing that you are already a part of the divine and not separated. As Jesus said, "I am in you, you are in me and I am in the Father, whatever I can do, you can do greater." As one becomes more aware of the real reality, when the unreal becomes more real, the veil is pulled back and there is a sense of longing for "home". In "Are You an Indigo", I wrote about the desire to become more like Christ in your life and how a transformation can take place to bring you to that state of being. All it takes is that desire, a true honest desire to return back to the divine nature of where we all came from. This book is a nature extension of those writings. This book is the next step on the path for those travelers seeking to return home while still walking on this earth."
