Product Description
The Ishayas are an ancient Order of monks, one which claims to stem directly from the Apostle John, following the direct orders of Christ to preserve his teachings until the third millennium. They hold that the original teachings of Jesus were not a belief system at all, but rather a mechanical series of techniques to transform human life into a constant perception and knowing of the perfection of divinity within every human heart.

What is the source or goal of human life? The mind in the waking state is filled with opposing thoughts. Is the perfection of life to be found after death? Is Heaven a far-off state, one to be attained by living a --This text refers to the Audio Cassette edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good book for those who are new to ascension, August 21, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Ascension!: An Analysis of the Art of Ascension as Taught by the Ishayas (Audio Cassette)

I have read the book and I have to admit that I haven't encountered anything I didn't know previously. However, I would still recommend it to people who are new to this concept. For those who have worked earnestly with A Course in Miracles, or have read and practiced the principles in the books Life and Teachings of the Masters of the Far East by Baird T. Spalding, Door of Everything by Ruby Nelson, or the books by Annalee Skarin, I don't think they will find anything new. The progress in this as in any other practice lies, of course, in daily practice and application of the principles to everyday life. To those who have read this book, I highly recommend to read the other books I mentioned, and some others such as Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramahansa Yogananda, God I AM by Peter Erbe and The Way of the Peaceful Warrior by Dan Millman.

5.0 out of 5 stars First Thunder for the Left Brained, June 5, 1997

By A Customer

Interested in the topic of ascension? Want a book that's all meat and no fluff! This is the one. Order it today. The publisher has reprinted and it is in stock. This is the sister book to First Thunder (a story for the right brained). There's three times the information on ascension in this book in half the space of First Thunder. It is a must have book
