The Pathway of Roses [Paperback]

Christian D. Larson (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: September 6, 2007

To give the world emancipation is the ruling desire of all minds that are spiritually awakened; and these should remember that to overcome evil with good is the only way. Forget the wrong that may appear in the outer world of things, and give all your thought to the great good that is inherent in all things. You thereby place in action the greatest emancipating power that the human race will ever know.We are in bondage because We have lived to please the person. Follow the soul and freedom shall come quickly. Then We shall please the person better than ever before. To follow the soul is to enter the greater domains of life, those domains from which we may secure everything that is rich and beautiful and superior in human existence.The soul leads, not only into the life more abundant, but also into the actual possession of all the spiritual riches that the greater life may contain. And when we find the kingdom that is within, all that we may desire in the without shall be added.The soul that lives most perfectly in the present creates most nobly for the future. Be yourself today, regardless of what happened yesterday. Be all that you are or can be today, and you will live in a fairer world tomorrow.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pathway to Roses-Eternal Wisdom, February 13, 2008

By 

Cathlyne Sommerville "CMS" (San Francisco, CA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Pathway of Roses (Paperback)

This book was written almost 100 years ago and still serves as a light in our information drenched world. Love, faith, and abundance weave their way through the pages of this book to create a tangible plan of action for the inspired. So often esoteric topics leave you with a feeling and not a plan, yet this book let's you know that in no uncertain terms, "That faith without works is dead" and life without love is a charade.
Beautiful poems, phenomenal thoughts, provoke a sense of urgency for the reader to move past hope to the combustionable effects of faith filled activities.

I own a hardbound copy of this book and I love it. This new paperback which I purchased as a gift for a family member had so many spelling errors in it that you couldn't understand its content.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book (eBook version CAN be cleaned up!), June 7, 2010

This review is from: The Pathway Of Roses (Kindle Edition)

The content of this book is marvelous; it's unfortunate that the eBook version appears to be flawed. Unfortunately, the optical character reading required to digitize this book results in lots of flaws. I obtained my epub copy (also very flawed) from a public domain site, researched epub editing tools, downloaded a free epub editing tool and cleaned up the epub version that I got online, and I admit I took a full day and a half cleaning it up (as well as learning about the editing tool), but it looks great now and plays well on my non-Kindle version eBook reader. As to the content - what can I say except inspiring and powerful. I felt privileged working so hard on the epub version knowing that I was "touching" Larson's very words and helping to turn them into a modern format for hopefully others to enjoy. I've signed on to a public domain book archive internet site to which I will be uploading my cleaned-up copy within the next day or so. As I told Druid in response to their comment, I'd be happy to share my version that I've cleaned up and to help anyone with an eBook reader learn how to take advantage of the many online sources for public domain books. My next project is the marvelous "Just Be Glad" booklet by Larson. My best to all who study Larson; our lives should well be changed as a result. [...]
