The Shape of Future Spirituality and Religion

I read Neale Donald Walsch's Tomorrow's God with amazement. It develops the ideas in the Conversations With God series, but applies them to our understanding of God and how that will evolve in the next generation of human thinking. How will humankind conceive of God as our species evolve, and as religions grapple with the entirely new problems of the coming century. Tomorrow's God provides intriguing answers. The book also presents many practical ideas, including a meditation, the "blue flame" meditation, that I have been using, that while very simple, has a powerful effect. This book is essential reading for anyone who has been touched by the power, eloquence and simplicity of the Conversations With God series.

A Lovely Approach

I'm not entirely astonished that this book would get such bi-polar reviews. Except that I am. To call this book dangerous, Socialist or postmodern is not only to have completely filtered this book through erroneous beliefs, but also mis-use the true definition of any those words. I'm not even sure you need an open mind to read this book, or an open-heart, or open anything, because I have found absolutely nothing disconcerting or even dangerous about any of the material contained in any of Mr. Walsch's books. Quite on the contrary, they fill you with such an ease of spirit, as if they were something you already knew before so much fear-based ideology was taught to you. That's the best summation I can provide about these books. They confirmed what I as a child believed about God before hell and vengeance and judgment came into the picture. On one thing we can all agree: the state of this world, and not just the U.S. and The Middle East, is downright horrifying. I will add that this horror is a result of primitvely long-held beliefs. Everyone is clinging steadfast to their ideologies without seeing that these ugly, human characteristics we place unto God are simply creating more and more detriment. Why are we so hard-pressed to try a different approach? This book advocates nothing but peace, unity and love for one another in very simple and personal ways. You can disregard it and label it New- Age, hippie, veganism blah blah blah. More labels. But if anyone ever tried anything mentioned in it, nothing but evolution would spring forth.

God, I Love Life - and I envision a much Grander version !!!

Once again Neale and God challenge us to challenge our notions of God. Each time I think Neale and God have said all there is to say, another set of nuances become present. This is evolution in action! Before Neale's books, I had only found a couple books that *truly* struck a chord in my heart. Then the CWG series struck a chord so resounding that it was almost overwhelming. This is TRUTH, my heart said. Not just part of this, but every bit of it gave sound to the harmony I was seeking. It revealed the meaning I knew had to be at the root of our existence. And finally, the truth had been revealed. And each time I thought Neale had taken the revelation as far as possible, he has come back with another awesome addition. Seek your own heart's truth. There is none else. The God revealed in Neale's books gives us that freedom. Many people would have us believe that God requires much of us, but Tommorrow's God requires nothing specific of us. For some that is heresy. For some, that means that humanity will destroy itself with inappropriate behaviours. For me, and for my vision of my fellow man, the ultimate requirement God has for us, is simply that we take full responsibility for all of our actions, and that we truly USE the complete freedom of choice which God has so wonderfully bestowed upon us all. My vision of God is exactly that revealed so beautifully in all of Neale's books. Before these books, I had the beginnings off such a vision of God, but I could not complete the vision myself. I searched everywhere for the truth. It must be here somewhere, no? But I only found bits and pieces of divine truth, which were often intertwined with other bits of *human* truths which did not resonate in my soul. Why would God punish us? No, God has *never* punished us. We've been punishing ourselves. We are at cause here. That is the sign of the ultimate freedom which God has bestowed upon us. God allows us to think anything, say anything, do anything, believe ANYTHING. This is too much responsibility for most people today, but it is the key to the next stage in our evolution. I've always been spiritually oriented, but religion has not provided satisfying food for my hungry soul. Neale's books have provided that nourishment. They accelerated my personal process of unfolding. I feel so much more complete thanks to all of Neale's books. Thank you Neale and THANK YOU God. Now back to the wonderfully hard work of living, made easier by these revelations. And back to creating my grandest vision of the world we all live in, one interaction at a time.

Tomorrow's God is indeed Everywhere

The more I read "Tomorrow's God," the more peaceful, joyful, and delighful I'll feel. SHE really talks to everyone from moment to moment, in different ways. Here is what Tomorrow's God talks to me:Teachers Exist Nowhere Everywhere and Now Here Have you ever heard ¡§When students are ready, teachers appear?¡¨ At this present moment however I have another remarkably keen insight that even if students are not ready teachers still appear The reality is it is not teachers that are absent but students that are unaware of this fact So is the reality teachers are the people around us especially those whom we love and hate most and that teachers are the events around us especially those which we can or can not accept or face In other words teachers are always around us Anytime Anywhere Nowhere Everywhere and Now Here Without inner peace Without inner intelligence We would miss it without realizing it

If we are to be a successful species.

I've read many books pertaining to our need to change the way we go about doing things if we are to succeed as a species on this planet. Many have outlined the necessary steps that we must make in order to do so and none have done it more succinctly and beautifully as this book from Neale Donald Walsch. Recognizing the duality that exists within us as our ego and our true self, and that the true self is currently overshadowed by the ego, cuts to the very nature of our current world situation and all its attending war, strife and suffering. Only the ego uses tools of fear to try to bring about solutions to all the problems we see. Walsch's book brings this duality to the forefront using a very unique literary vehicle and whether you choose to believe that he actually converses with God is irrelevant. His word's ring so true that if read without blinders and preconceptions they touch our very core, our true selves,love. When we finally realize that all our travails are rooted in ego manifesting our reality we'll know that we aren't separate, but one, and that the belief in separateness is killing us at an ever increasing pace. Our problems are spiritual in nature as expressed through our misguided and misunderstood teachings of our religions. Walsch clearly shows how the dogmatic aspects of those religious beliefs have lead us very close to the brink of our own self destruction. All our religions at their foundation teach that love is the only answer. Unfortunately, misinterpretations of our religions are what the ego uses to have us believe that our's is the only way to salvation, and our way is the only way. Using all aspects of fear it manipulates us to the point that we no longer know who we really are and we cave into the fear. And knowing who we really are will be our only true salvation and it will only come once we embrace fully that love is the only answer. Unless that thought can be fully realized we are doomed to repeating the same pitiful attempts of answering our problems using the tools of fear so readily supplied by our egos. Walsch, or God speaking through him, gives us the basic tools to begin a transformation in our belief structure about who we are and who God is. This will lead to a new world, one based on love, not fear. One based on the knowledge that we all have at our core the one and only thing that can rejoin us as one, love. There are many good books finding there way into our hands giving us the guidance and opportunity we need to proceed into the 21st century successfully. Its up to us to finally say, we've had enough, there's got to be a better way.. I believe that way is outlined clearly in this book. If this book were to be read by everyone, I believe the world would see a profound move towards what we all profess to want, peace and love mainfested between all people. For yourself, your family, the family of man, and the future of the world, get this book and read it and then take action..
