This is the second book in the trilogy of books compiled from Joel Goldsmith s lecture series. The trilogy includes Rising in Consciousness, Consciousness in Transition, and Consciousness Transformed. Rising in Consciousness and Consciousness in Transition illuminate Goldsmith s early class work. Consciousness Transformed comes from a lecture series given during the last years of his work. Together the trilogy presents a holistic overview of a living message.
Soon after the publication in 1947 of Goldsmith s first book, The Infinite Way, Goldsmith gave a series of lectures in San Francisco to students who had requested instruction. These classes set the foundation for what was to become a worldwide teaching ministry. They laid out a framework of spiritual principles of such integrity and purity that students of sufficient intent and motivation who worked with them could experience illumination. These classes were recorded on a wire recorder and transcribed for students. Later they were put into a book called Metaphysical Notes.
Consciousness in Transition is the second book derived from Metaphysical Notes, and it continues the class work covered in Rising in Consciousness. In Consciousness in Transition, Goldsmith goes into depth on living, moving, and having one's being in spiritual consciousness. He continues the explanation of the path of spiritual growth and lays the foundation necessary for attaining conscious union with God. The reader can virtually sit in on Joel s early class work and learn about the practices of meditation, healing and treatment, and prayer, and understand the nature of God and the nature of error.
