Spiritual Growth is the process of becoming conscious. The only measure of our Spiritual Growth is our ability to LOVE. Love is not ingratiation, it is not being kind, polite or being nice. Love is the complete and total acceptance of what is, and that starts with ourselves. As we cease judging ourselves, we cease judging others; as we love ourselves, we love others. -- Omni

  • A Course in Miracles - By Helen Schucman - When Helen Schucman, a professor of medical psychology at Columbia University, began hearing an inner voice of rapid dictation, she decided to start taking shorthand notes. With the support and encouragement of a colleague, Schucman continued to assemble the teachings that came to her. The result is A Course in Miracles, a book that has spawned hundreds of study groups and an international following.
  • The Prophet - By Kahlil Gibran - In a distant, timeless place, a mysterious prophet walks the sands. At the moment of his departure, he wishes to offer the people gifts but possesses nothing. The people gather round, each asks a question of the heart, and the man's wisdom is his gift. A brilliant man's philosophy on love, joy, and friendship.
  • Tao te Ching - Translated by Dwight Goddard - The Tao Te Ching is fundamental to the Taoist school of Chinese philosophy and strongly influenced other schools, such as Legalism and Neo-Confucianism. This ancient book is also central in Chinese religion, not only for Taoism but Chinese Buddhism, which when first introduced into China was largely interpreted through the use of Taoist words and concepts. Many Chinese artists, including poets, painters, calligraphers, and even gardeners have used the Tao Te Ching as a source of inspiration. Its influence has also spread widely outside East Asia, aided by hundreds of translations into Western languages.
