Customer Reviews

Recommended for the more advanced metaphysical seeker

I do have to give this book five stars because of it's powerful teachings of basic metaphysical principles. I do, though, highly recommend reading the two books concurrently. As much as I admire Charles Fillmore, his book isn't the easiest reading for one new to metaphysics. Also, one probably won't agree with all his teachings. He had beliefs in immortality in the body, in regeneration, and concerning sexuality which many will disagree with, which is all right. This material must be read with an open mind, and with a discerning mind which can discard that which one has difficulty with while retaining that which is relevant.

12 Powers

After reading the 12 powers, I created my own affirmations to support my daily prayers to strengthen these powers. This book is thought provoking, when reading Charles' section, and can be put to practical use via meditation, when reading Cora's section. Since there are two books in one, this is a real bargain. If you can't read the whole book, make sure you read the last chapter when all the powers are placed in a single excercise. You will appreciate the knowledge gained from "faith and understanding.." to "..wisdom and renuciation". Learn how to manage and express the 12 powers and bring them into spiritual reality.

Oh my God. I know you like never before.

I have been a heathen, Did not study the bible as I should. Went to Catholic school but have never read such a powerful, easy to understand book in all of my short life. Truly inspiring. I will read I over and over again.
