Book excerpt: In our current era of holy terror, passionate faith has come to seem like a present danger. Writers such as Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, and Christopher Hitchens have been happy to throw the baby out with the bathwater and declare that the danger is in religion itself. God, Hitchens writes, is not great. But man, according to George E. Vaillant, M.D., is great. In Spiritual Evolution, Dr. Vaillant lays out a brilliant defense not of organized religion but of man’s inherent spirituality. Our spirituality, he shows, resides in our uniquely human brain design and in our innate capacity for emotions like love, hope, joy, forgiveness, and compassion, which are selected for by evolution and located in a different part of the brain than dogmatic religious belief. Evolution has made us spiritual creatures over time, he argues, and we are destined to become even more so. Spiritual Evolution makes the scientific case for spirituality as a positive force in human evolution, and he predicts for our species an even more loving future. Vaillant traces this positive force in three different kinds of “evolution”: the natural selection of genes over millennia, of course, but also the cultural evolution within recorded history of ideas about the value of human life, and the development of spirituality within the lifetime of each individual. For thirty-five years, Dr. Vaillant directed Harvard’s famous longitudinal study of adult development, which has followed hundreds of men over seven decades of life. The study has yielded important insights into human spirituality, and Dr. Vaillant has drawn on these and on a range of psychological research, behavioral studies, and neuroscience, and on history, anecdote, and quotation to produce a book that is at once a work of scientific argument and a lyrical meditation on what it means to be human. Spiritual Evolution is a life’s work, and it will restore our belief in faith as an essential human striving.

Book excerpt: In Evolutionary Enlightenment, Andrew Cohen redefines spiritual awakening for our contemporary world—a world characterized by exponential change and an ever-expanding appreciation for the processes of evolution. Cohen’s message is simple, yet profound: Life is evolution, and enlightenment is about waking up to this fundamentally creative impulse as your own deepest, most authentic self. Through five tenets for living an enlightened life, Cohen will empower you to wholeheartedly participate in the process of change as your own spiritual practice. Evolutionary Enlightenment not only makes deep sense of life today; it will show you how to play an active role in shaping the world of tomorrow.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nikki Patillo speaks to angels. And, the angels speak to Nikki. In fact, they have hasked her to speak to you. That message from the angels is found in this book. Elements of the message from the angels include: - We are not humans on a spiritual journey, but are spiritual beings on a human journey. - We are in the midst of a spiritual evolution in which our auras and vibrational frequencies are changing for the better. - Life is often filled with pain. Embrace the pain. It is what binds us to one another, helps us to grow, and teaches us spiritual lessons. In a sense, this could be called the Angels' Manifesto. Their message here is everything each of us needs to know about ascension, reincarnation, karma, living in abundance, manifesting our dreams, and waking up. It is a cosmic manifesto filled with practical insights for daily living and cosmic truth for the next evolutionary leap.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you accept evolutionary theory, can you also believe in God? Are human beings superior to other animals, or is this just a human prejudice? Does Darwin have implications for heated issues like euthanasia and animal rights? Does evolution tell us the purpose of life, or does it imply that life has no ultimate purpose? Does evolution tell us what is morally right and wrong, or does it imply that ultimately 'nothing' is right or wrong? In this fascinating and intriguing book, Steve Stewart-Williams addresses these and other fundamental philosophical questions raised by evolutionary theory and the exciting new field of evolutionary psychology. Drawing on biology, psychology and philosophy, he argues that Darwinian science supports a view of a godless universe devoid of ultimate purpose or moral structure, but that we can still live a good life and a happy life within the confines of this view.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Evolution and Spiritual Life Comparatively little detailed consideration is given in the present book to the conclusions of particular schools of philosophy, except where a reference to one system or another has seemed desirable for the purpose of illustrating a definite point. William James justly complains that The abuse of technicality is seen in the infrequency with which, in philosophical literature, metaphysical questions are discussed directly on their own merits. Almost always they are handled, as if through a heavy woollen curtain, the veil of pre vious philosophers' opinions. Alternatives are wrapped in proper names, as if it were indecent for a truth to go naked. I have tried, rather, to work from point to point, handling everything with bare fingers, and only discovering by touch the shape of each lump of fact and its contacts with the next. And the shapes and contacts of some were unexpected. But clothes are ornamental; and these ornaments we have come to consider essential to decency. There fore, both for the sake of our ideas of what is suitable, and to escape arrest by the police who guard our thoughts, I have decked the body of my work with more or less of the usual habiliments 1.

Book excerpt: “Carter Phipps brilliantly expands our understanding of evolution by showing us that a new science is emerging—one that will holistically integrate our understanding of consciousness, cosmology, and evolution.” —Deepak Chopra Blending cutting-edge ideas with incisive spiritual insights, Evolutionaries is the first popular presentation of an emerging school of thought called “evolutionary spirituality.” Carter Phipps, the former executive editor of EnlightenNext magazine, asserts that evolution is not only a scientific but also a spiritual idea in a book whose message has the power to bring new meaning and purpose to life as we know it. Readers will be fascinated and enlightened by Evolutionaries, a book which Deepak Chopra, the world-renowned author of The Seven Spiritual Laws of Superheroes, Jesus, and Buddha, says “is going to help create a worldview that will influence our vision of the future direction of evolution and also our role in consciously participating in it.”

Book excerpt: Is- Being - The Spiritual Evolution, illuminates the mystery and transformative potential of the evolving soul. It is a 'why to' and 'how to' of this beautiful and eternal phenomenon and explains why it is with urgency that we work towards it today. This evolution has been explored many times before, but this book strips the process back to its bones, so that we can recognise the echoes of it wherever we look, and notice the commonality, rather than the differences, between these explanations. With a refreshing vocabulary, new understanding and unique perspective, it brings clarity, illumination and accessibility to everyone. The book tries to help the reader to develop an experiential relationship with the Mystery beyond the borders of all faiths and spiritual practices, which so many of us knowingly or unknowingly seek. It points us towards this Mystery of that which 'Is', using the universal language of energy and Love. It is for the tentative beginners, the newly awakened and the seasoned travellers of all spiritual, faith and personal journeys; yes, for everyone; including people just like you... Is- Being - The Spiritual Evolution provides: *A link between religious, spiritual and secular communities. *Explains that the link between them all is love, and the cord of light to that which 'Is'; beyond, and within, any religious definition and spiritual practice. *Explains the energetic construction of the created-self, spirit-self, and soul-self and how this connects to and interacts energetically to All. *Explains how the soul evolves and why this is crucial to the evolution of humanity to create a new and beautiful world through love. Our spiritual life is a unique journey to the infinite. It is like climbing to the top of the hill where we discover our with the infinite, and with all. But our starting points at the bottom of the hill are different and unique. The way we experience the infinite, which Mel calls IS-BEING, is unique. In this book Mel describes her own unique journey and her own unique experience and thus invites everyone to make his or her own unique journey and unique experience of IS-BEING. It is a very original, creative and inspiring journey and discovery, described with almost humility and love. I wish and hope that everyone who reads this book may be inspired to take his or her spiritual journey and discover the infinite in a unique way. Br. John Martin SahajanandaAuthor of 'You are the Light' (2003), 'What is truth' (2013), 'Fully Human - Fully Divine' (2014) and more A masterful and prophetic revelation of a new spiritual epoch. Whilst religion can provide us with a traditional framework for the spiritual journey, Is-Being takes us beyond the limits of the human mind into an entirely different operating system. This paradigm shift in human consciousness and evolution reveals how the energetic and vibratory resonance of the heart is the doorway into an enlightened presence rooted in pure reality! Richard WiltshireSalvos Chaplain Defining a new Heart-Centred spiritual language for an awakened collective, with imperative insights into soul, spirit and guides, the clarity and conviction with which Cross delivers this essential information is a triumph.The illumination into unshakable Faith and Trust which Cross invites us is truly empowering; for beginners and even the most experienced spiritual pioneers.Cross enables us to feel a deeper sense of humility inspiring us to help others within this incredible and infinitely beautiful connected vastness of that which 'Is'.Will ReardonMultidimensional Artist and Angelic Reiki Master Teacher

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Evolution and Spiritual Life Many laymen feel that the humanity of a doctor is generally, though by no means always, richer than the humanity of a clergyman. Not a few courageously proclaim the fact; greatly to the discomfort, and perhaps the benefit, of the clergy. And as we mentally run through the long roll of literary doctors, beginning with Luke the Beloved Physician, noting the names of Sir Thomas Browne, Dr John Brown, Dr Oliver Wendell Holmes, and many more, till we reach contemporary writers like Douglas White and the author of The Corner of Harley Street, we cannot but agree that the laymen have a good deal of justice on their side. And our personal experience teaches us the same. The reason of this is not far to seek. The humanity of the doctor is richer than the humanity of the parson because he knows so much more about the mechanism in which the soul lives. Very few doctors fall into the mistake of thinking they have to talk to, and counsel, a mechanism without a soul; while "quite a many" clergymen talk to a soul as if it had not got a mechanism tied on to it.
