Spiritual Awareness...a good read!

I love Ernest Holmes and his approach to explaining spiritual awareness. I would highly recommend this book for anyone seeking a keen inner life to an empowered external life.

You have discovered the spiritual universe ...

Ernest Holmes wrote this incredible gem in 1948. I think my favorite passage is: "You have discovered the spiritual universe. Many others have discovered this same world, but each must make the discovery for himself. You are going to have a lot of joy sailing around this world of yours. Don't fight the opinions of others, or waste your time arguing over these things. Follow the inward gleam of your consciousness and you will arrive." (30) Knowing that we each seek the joy of living, Dr. Holmes speaks to us of: Omnipresence (34), Faith (18), Garden of Eden (38), Divine Guidance (63), Pure Intuition (101), Stop looking for an authority outside your own conviction (43), and Live in a state of expectancy (67). He gives us life changing inspiration and affirmations. Ernest Holmes founded the Science of Mind Movement aka Religious Science and wrote the revered textbook Science of Mind.
