The Eck-Vidya [Paperback]

Paul Twitchell (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: June 14, 2010

Few people outside of ECKANKAR have ever heard of the ECK-Vidya, the ancient science of prophecy, which is the modus operandi for delving into the past, present and future, used by the adepts of Ancient Order of Vairagi-this is the order of ECK Masters. It gives man much to think about, that he has a way to receive and give certain knowledge about one's self which is useful and valuable. Life is largely a struggle in which man employs the known in an effort to conquer the unknown. Everywhere people are endeavoring to predict the future for meeting it in a more prepared manner. The whole story of the ECK-Vidya is the penetration into the realms of the generally unknown areas, not yet explored by the psychics, scientists, mystics or saints. The ECK-Vidya involves the principle of the cycles of life. It is up to the individula to learn these subtle changes and to make the adjustment as they arise. The minor changes always affect the greater changes. So when one is able to recognize and handle the very smaller cycles within himself, then he is able to bring about control over his life in the inner which controls his whole universe, that which he carries with himself at all times. ECKANKAR, of itself, is the highest path to God. But in its own broad and comprehensive aspects are included thirty or more facets or spiritual works, such as prophecy, healing, self-realization, the deja-vu powers, siddhi (spiritual knowledge), omnipresence, making events happen for one's own future, to name a few. All these are carried on upon a higher spiritual level than those of the occult, metaphysical and religious teachings. The vibrations of anyone practicing the ECK-Vidya are so high that those on the lower psychic scale can never be compared with them.

This review is from: The Eck-Vidya (Paperback)

I believe Paul T. wanted us to use this book to go within for our own answers to the fascinating material here. To create our own path in a sense. The discussions of the life cycles and planets are absolutely intriguing. As with other Eckankar perspectives, it's a most high viewpoint on how life works and how to find God in our actual experience. How to be happier, to serve live more fully and realize that we're eternal beings here to learn divine love. I suggest that anyone check out the ECK (holy spirit) writings; perhaps they will be your greatest discovery in any lifetime!

4.0 out of 5 stars Study of Life Cycles, light years away from astrology., October 15, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: The Eck-Vidya (Paperback)

The ECK-Vidya has something for everyone. If you wonder why you live a life of ups-and-downs, this book can give you some answers. It goes much further than astrology which limits itself within the material universe. It tells about ECK Masters that are still living in their bodies after centuries of their birth. It also tells about the Ancient Science of Prophecy. That book explores countless realms all accessible through easy contemplative or meditative techniques. It shows ways to delve into your pastlives, and to conquer the fear of death. You can get more information on ECK at: http://www.eckankar.org

5.0 out of 5 stars Good book but a little advanced as a first book about Eckankar, March 18, 2007

This review is from: The Eck-Vidya (Paperback)

Good book but a little advanced and complicated as a first book about Eckankar. Probably more background info is required before reading it.

Try the tigers fang or the flute of God by the same author first. The book the spiritual exercises of ECK by Harold Klemp and also Autobiography of a modern prophet by Harold Klemp are also vary good as is the spiritual laws of ECK.

The knowledge and techniques contained in these books are way above that of astrology/numerology/ or metaphysics. They deal with our true self Soul...how to expand our consciousness toward self and God realization and the law of love rather then the mind and mechanics of the universe.
