Customer Reviews

Don't deprive yourself of this message!

When I was first introduced to The Urantia Book a number of years ago, I was encouraged to look beyond the obstacle of authorship and judge the validity of it's message on it's content. The idea that the truth would "ring true" deep within my being was often expressed. I took this advice to heart, and as I immersed myself in it's pages, I was rewarded by a whole choir of bells ringing true within me. It pains me to think how many people out there are depriving themselves of this amazing message just because they can't deal with the possibility that the papers were authored by "superhuman beings". It really doesn't matter who wrote the papers at all, what matters is the message. I, for example, am writing this review. Very few people who read this actually know me, so the majority of you will have to ponder what I have written and take from it what you will. Why should any other message be any different?That many people will choose not to read The Center Within because of the source of it's teachings pains me as well. Many of the same Urantians who will encourage those reading The Urantia Book to look at the message and not judge the book by it's authorship will do exactly the opposite to this book. And as with The Urantia Book, those who choose to ignore this book are depriving themselves of a beautiful, uplifting, and even practical message. I would encourage everyone, Urantian or not, to open themselves to this message. I know that you will not be dissappointed.

Bringing the Teachings of The Urantia Book to Life.

This is a wonderful addition to the Urantia Book. It gets down to the nitty-gritty of some of the teachings and adds practical advice to each of those teachings. You may not agree with all of its advice or with all of its explanations of the teachings, however, you will agree that it is a must have for anyone on a spiritual journey.The Urantia Book is one of the most inspiring books in print today. It's teachings are timeless and life giving. The Center Within takes a look at these teachings and brings them to the practical level of experience. From meditation (stillness) to social interaction, The Center Within is complete and full of loving insight!

the last book

I had to post a review before I even read it, I just looked over the first chapter descriptions, read the back cover, and have to tell you I am shaking, over a period of many years of intensive reading, i know this book is the last one I need to read......it ties all of the pieces together, "know thyself", this book is soaked in TRUTH and LOVE, or should I say TRUTH IS LOVE!

Uplifting, inspired, a guiding light - I can't say enough!

This "must have" book is a guide post to spiritual living. It ignores dogma and religionists while championing the living faith of Jesus. Those who find no home in organized religion will find comfort and a friend in these pages. Compelling, encouraging, thoughtful; yet easy to read and understand. Offers great hope for these troubled times.

Lessons for Personal Enlightenment - check it out!

Religious dogma and ritual have, at times, obscured the unifying fact that we are all children of God. This book is an attempt to focus our attention to one of the most basic aspects of our brief life here on earth - sharing God's love. With a Urantia book backdrop, The Center Within reminds us that God resides in each of us and encourages us to communicate with God through daily meditative "stillness" practice. It gives practical suggestions on how best to accomplish that connection with God and describes the fruits of the spirit that will emerge from that practice. Check it out, folks. I think you'll like it.
