Beschreibung des Verlags
Does Divine Consciousness exist only with the Son of God, or within all of us? Two thousand years ago, a rich myriad of Christian teachings emerged after the death of Jesus. Two pillars rose above the din; two churches, two structures, two leaders: James, the Brother of Jesus, and St Paul, the Evangelist. Journey with St. Paul, whose tireless efforts laid the foundations for one of the biggest religions in modern times. Walk with James, the brother of Jesus, who was given the mantle to lead the original Church by Jesus, upon his death. These accounts offer intimate knowledge of what motivated and moved them, how and why they built and developed the twin pillars of Christianity, and what happened to their respective churches. Two thousand years have dimmed the light on these diverse teachings. It is now time to illuminate the secret stories of the Early Christian Church and the Divine Consciousness.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In this somewhat ridiculous work, regression therapist Kumarasingham (From the Heart Press) recounts therapy sessions with clients to examine theological points of contention between the Jewish-Christian Church of James and the Gentile Church of Paul during early Christianity. He begins by laying out the historical context of these debates using a mix of Gnosticism, textual criticism, New Age meanderings, and Holy Grail lore. While the book gets off to a promising start, readers will be disappointed to discover that Kumarasingham's arguments are supported only by regression therapy sessions with clients who have experienced visions of the lives of Paul and James. During therapy sessions, "regressee" Greg channels the experiences of Paul at Jesus's Crucifixion, while regressee Mia assumes the role of James. Provided are bland descriptions of the regressed Paul ("wearing sandals and a white robe made of coarse material") and revelations along the lines of "Jesus' father was not a poor carpenter as is popularly believed." The author also makes the outlandish claim that James, Jesus's brother, "and Joseph of Arimathea, are indeed one and the same." This one's strictly for those who believe in regression therapy.
