Any person who comes to the realisation that the earth is alive and full of energies not visible to the eye eventually wonders if the earth has any memory of Christ on Golgotha. This book gives ways that that questions can begin to be answered. Pogacnik is an artist and has developed a clairvoyance in regard to the elemental beings and the etheric forces that are all around us and active in the earth. From experiencing these forces, described in his books "Nature Spirits and Elemental Beings" and "Healing the Heart of the Earth" - Pogacnik then realises that he can use the same techniques to examine the Gospels. When he does so - a whole new layer of the Gospels is opened to him, and Marko is able to read the script of the "Fifth Gospel" buried in the Gospels themselves. The book then discusses the union of Christ with Sophia, the heart of the earth, and enables us in a new way to comprehend the infinite magnitude of life in all its forms. This book is a must read for anyone interested in religion, new age, the environment and understanding our relationship to the many worlds around us.

I found this book difficult and challenging. Not because it was difficult to read, but because of the ideas and spirituality. I personally need the gospels as an authority for my life, but Pogancik, while accepting the gospels as divinely inspired word of God, points to some uninspired additions to the gospel that are troubling.

The power of the gospels lies in part in the use of the Word in such a way that the soul/psyche is affected on a very deep level. For example, the life events and parables of Christ have guided peoples life for 2000 years.The growth of the soul and the maturation of humanity is in many instances exemplified with metaphors such as a tree growing and giving fruit in its season.

However, Pogacnik points to examples of fictitous additions which act a poison for the soul. For example, the passage in Mathew where Jesus curses the fig tree for NOT producing figs out of season and then uses this curse as an example of the power of faith. Such false additions scar the psyche of the reader as it provokes fear and neurosis in the psyche of the reader who comes to see divine authority as arbitrary.It interferes with the process of developing an inner moral code and incites people to look helplessly to an exterior authority.....such as institutionalized religion.

However, as the apostle Paul points out, the goal of Jesus is to inspire the development of the Christ within.

Pogancik's problem is the opposite of my own. He struggles with the idea that there is divine inpiration in institutionalized religion. I, on the other hand, am suspicious of people who reject our institutions.

Nevertheless, I do accept Pogancik's criticism as legitimate. And I am even optimistic that the language of art he is developing could be an example of the new language referred to in the Book of revelations which only the 144000 saints could learn.

Such speculation aside, this book calls our attention to the fact that a time could come where further spiritual growth could require less reliance on authority, even scripture, and more reliance on our own inner Christ.And it encourages us to prepare for this time (I personally am not there yet and find this level of Self-reliance difficult to imagine).

Lastly, this review would be incomplete if I did not point out that the author bases many of his insights on divinely inspired dreams, remembrance of a former incarnation in which he met Jesus, and his ability to actually sense the presence of spiritual entities and even see and converse with them at times.

I find the author's claims credible.
