Insight into Who and What we are and Where we came from,
By hylundr@micron.net (Boise,Idaho,USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Abd-Ru-Shin: In the Light of the Truth (The Grail Message) (Paperback)
Insight into Who and What we are and Where we came from I have read this book in English as well as in it's original language, German. It is truely a book of wisdom explaining the nature of our existance, setting right where religions have gone wrong... The author does not bring a new religion with his words, he removes the blinders bestowed upon us by our own foolish conceptions which prohibit us from understanding life, which in turn forces us into blind faith or mere frustration. He challenges the reader to turn blind faith into conviction that comes from knowlege and understanding alone. The author Abd-Ru-Shin sheds light onto christian subjects like The Antichrist, The Creation of Man,Marriage, Man and his Free Will,Beauty of the Peoples,etc.just to name a few, but he also gives insight into the important role women play in creation,life after death,elemental beings, as well as the Millennium. If I was given the option to own only one book, this would be the book of my choice for the reason that the human spirit excists beyond our earthly life and this book shows what that existance truely consists of and guides mankind into knowledge about themselves and the position they hold in Creation.

The WORDS are a pathway for each human spirit!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Abd-Ru-Shin: In the Light of the Truth (The Grail Message) (Paperback)
As soon as I finish the last page, I immediately turn to
page one and begin again; and have been doing so for almost
fifteen years. With each reading, I come to a better understanding of the meaning in the Laws of Creation. If only
every person could attain the sense of peace and happiness I
have found in this most wonderful explanation of why we are
here and where we are going! Thank you, Abd-ru-shin!

There is "The Message" and the others.,
By Mauricio Carvalho D'Amico (Stna. de Parnaiba, Sao Paulo Brasil) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Abd-Ru-Shin: In the Light of the Truth (The Grail Message) (Paperback)
After having read hundreds of books trying to answer questions like "who am I and what's next", I found this book. From that moment, I have read it again and again for more than 20 years. And each time I read it is like a brand new book. And, what is best, it has been proved to be very helpfull in my daily experiences.

Bad Religion,
By
This review is from: Abd-Ru-Shin: In the Light of the Truth (The Grail Message) (Paperback)
By sectioning a "moment" in the continuum of indivisible eternity through the mythical "Let there be Light", the author believed to be in possession of a starting point were he could initiate his descriptions of the Universe. But those who follow the grail message "knowledge" up to the end, end up facing a really disconcerting problem. Please explain to the readers: Exactly when, how and why the divine beings themselves came into existence inside the divine sphere? The author says it was THEIR formation that ultimately caused the sedimentation of the "residual" beings (the so-called "little clouds") inside the external edges of the divine realm, whose plea for a conscious existence was presented as the reason to the creation of the Universe. In such sequence of events, the first absent explanation is critical and essential for any TRUE answer. At this point the author deliberately and conveniently presents no explanations, offering to his readers, in fact, TOTALLY SECONDARY REASONS to the origin of Creation!This absence of answer were solved by the author through a divine decree (a dogma): On what happens inside the heavenly sphere the human beings can not reflect nor understand, because our origin does not allow that. Any attempt would expose, according to the author, the human presumption and arrogance typical of a doomed spirit destined to disappear in the Last Judgment always just about to come ... An evident madness, kept intact by laziness of thinking, by fear and undoubtedly by religious fanaticism... Where BLIND FAITH was convenient to the author he used it, despite selling himself to his readers as a liberator of the human spirit! By placing the origin of his descriptions inside the supposedly unfathomed divine realm, the author imagined himself completely sheltered, believing that no one would dare to expose such blatant inconsistencies. Knowing his "revelations" were actually directed to the restless human intellect, the author intended (with the dogma of the impossibility of humans to understand the "divine realm") to consciously (but artificially) put an end to questionings. Each answer is a seed that contains within it the germ of many other questionings, never getting it legitimately to an end, until it reaches a critical but disastrous point, where all the pretension of human spiritual knowledge resoundingly collapses. The author was perfectly aware of this disastrous problem and arbitrarily determined the limit point of questionings which were most comfortable and opportune to himself. The only logical conclusion is that the author offered to his readers a PARTIAL and INCOMPLETE answer for the birth of Creation. And such "answer" on the most important question of the universe can be anything, BUT NOT a real answer. Those who believe to possess the "keys of knowledge" are actually embarrassingly empty-handed. If we sent our questionings indefinitely back in time, free of all fears and religious constraints, we would then realize that a true primordial answer would ultimately relate to a time which, in fact, had really never existed! For if the primary cause - God - is the unique determinant cause for everything else, then any other explanations related to a "moment" after the "birth" of God, would relate to minor issues, and would be thus, irrelevant. We would end, if we continue on the likes of "answers" to ask: alright, I exist because God created me this way or that ... But after all, why God himself exists? For this is indeed the only honest and legitimate question to be asked, which answer would be truly enlightening, since God, from the perspective of those who believe in such transcendent concept, is the only reality of existence. But if God is eternal, then he must also have always existed, for there can't be a "beginning" in eternity. And there simply can't be a "reason", i.e., a "sense" or some sort of explanation for something that has ALWAYS existed, and so, nor to anything else that derived from him. This is a dead end. Therefore, no "gnosis" can be rightfully related to God. Our so called spiritual Knowledge is a fraud were we hide our own baffling ignorance. We don't want to be exposed because we lack security in our journey to the unknown. Any attempt to "explain" the existence must be related to a time concept (beginning-middle-end). Eternity - the true origin of everything - has no boundaries, therefore, no knowledge (meaning) can be related to that. Of course, such conclusion requires some thought. "God" is truly a transcendent concept. Accept this fact and the world automatically becomes a more peaceful place. Accept it and see how all the pretentious human spiritual knowledge instantly collapses. The excuses related to the "low human presumption" in the attempt to probe the "high and inaccessible divine altitudes" serve only to this: to artificially enhance the completely irrelevant and mythical explanations which delight the grail message follower's. This is truly an ode to human hypocrisy, disguised - there could not be a more subtle and perfect elusion- in a claimed humility, made to measure to be sipped and enjoyed with particular avidity by human vanity! That's why the myths surrounding secondary issues (fake answers) abound among humans. By doing so, they only feed the arrogance and pretentiousness of their so called "divine knowledge". With such myths, the aim is not to glorify God, but man, who longs desperately for a "role" within which he can justify the importance it attaches to himself. The spiritual experience is in no way related to "comprehensible" or "logical" explanations of the Universe, nor to "descriptions" of the external forms of cosmic events. Forms, as outer phenomena they are, will never be able to approach us to the essence of being. The reality of consciousness lies beyond the realm of forms and their corresponding descriptions. These are crumbs that in many subtleties, form trails that always lead us into false paths. The only true and therefore legitimate humility lies in the recognition of our complete lack of knowledge facing the reasons of the existence. We know nothing, simple as that. But many of those who like to say that, ultimately, always intend to know "something" more than their fellows. Actually, what those "humble" believers are trying to say to their audience with such sentence is: Remember how ignorant YOU are! And they still imagine themselves modest in their beliefs, childishly blaming their messiahs for their alleged unchallenged infallibility! By replacing the expression "blind faith" to the word "intuition" they believed they had solved the problem of human fallibility, not even noticing the awkward religious lure to which they surrendered. But if we follow their beliefs all the way down, as previously mentioned above, we can than realize that their so called intuition lead the grail message followers unconditionally to the path of the old and well known blind faith. Absolute truths leave no space at all to true humility. How could they? Any "explanations" of the universe held only on a declaration of divine authority (a prophet, a son of God or any other of the genre) and whose truth can never be proven by scientific means is clearly part of a religious system, no matter the author asserts that he is "not presenting a new religion". Not only the religions criticized by Oskar Bernhardt are "threshing empty seeds". The author himself shamelessly does the same, covered just by a fragile self-declared divine origin. |
