Walter Russell's Message of the Divine Iliad has been a foundation of my understanding of the Universe and its operations for over 35 years. "Genius is self-bestowed....mediocracy is self-inflicted." Walter Russell gives the directions to becoming a genius at what you do, in all areas of your life. His teachiings can balance your life and make you prosperous and productive in ways you've never dreamt. Practicing what you learn will automatically and effortlessly eliminate a lot of dross from your existance

Russell teaches you the actual physical workings of the universe clearly and cleanly. Understanding this allows you to see the principles in action, and allows you to USE the principles in everything from your philosophies to your practical daily life. You are at once strengthened and..well, sort of invulnerable.

I have always loved the first volume more than the second, probably because the basics are in the first volume. These books are reasonably priced and are fundamental for anyone...and you will read them and read at them for years, gleaning more meaning with each new person you become.

His teaching is experiential: You read it, think about it, absorb it...then You live it, experience it. And people will wonder why you are so calm and peaceful in a world of Storm and Strife.

His foundation is still at work, all his work still available, his magnificent artwork still there...why is he obscure? discover him today.

Walter Russell said he could explain how the Universe works in just one sentence, and he does indeed. When I finally got to that line in the 1st volume, I felt like -- why don't more people just know it? It's so simple. And true. Of course, it's in the middle of a lot of prayers and automatic writing stuff, and stories about how to apply Russell's ideas, but I loved reading all of it. It's a book to meditate on and apply to all aspects of life. One day life on Earth will be much simpler and life-affirming, and people won't have to look so hard for love and joy. The ideas in this book can help bring that about. Let's hope, soon!

The First Section of this book contains philosophical text which is typical and conversational. It is in the second part, named 'The Secret of Light' where one can find the most clear, pure explanation of the universe imaginable, in the amount of text which normally fills a small booklet. Complete with diagrams, the explanation begins with God and flows out to all basic logical systems in a spectacularly balanced fashion. If you are a seeker, dont' miss out on this one!

The Divine Iliad contains the most pure form of the expression of Spirit in any writing that I have ever seen.

I have read: The Christian Bible, the Koran, the Book of Mormon, the Toa Te Ching, Conversations with God, the I AM Discourses, the Urantia Book and dozens more. None hold a candle to the purity of message and the essence of spirit that is contained in the Divine Iliad.

Walter Russell is indeed a fine conduit.

I recommend "The Secret of Light" and both volumes of the Diving Iliad. The three books together provide a complete and cohesive message.

These are the books that I turn to when I am lost and alone. They are the finest tools that I have found to guide me back to a knowing of Spirit. And Russell's work in general, is the finest explanation of this universe that we experience.

very profound. with science behind it as explained in the secret of light.
What is very interesting is that the concept of God exactly matches as described in Guru Granth Sahib.
The Holy Book or the living guru of the Sikhs.

A rare work of discourse on the divine through pith prose condensed with deep meaning and essays on the nature of God, man and the universe.

This along with the second volume contain some of the most intelligently written clear expressions and descriptions of our universe and the nature of that which we call 'God'.

An illumining work that can be savoured intellectually and appreciated for it's beauty in the depths of ones heart.

Highly Recommended.
