Product Description
Michael Bernard Beckwith -- the dynamic spiritual leader who touched millions of readers and viewers in The Secret and through the spiritual community he founded, the Agape International Spiritual Center -- is now sharing his transforming central message and his powerfully accessible means for embodying that message in daily life, a process he calls "aspiring toward spiritual liberation."PMichael Beckwith teaches that inner spiritual work, not religiosity or dogma, liberates us. He draws on a wide spectrum of ancient wisdom teachers such as Jesus the Christ and Gautama the Buddha; contemporary spiritual luminaries Thich Nhat Hanh, Sri Aurobindo, and the Dalai Lama; and Western contributors to the New Thought tradition of spirituality such as Emanuel Swedenborg, Walter Russell, and Dr. Howard Thurman to create a profound new belief synthesis.PEither read silently or aloud, Spiritual Liberation can be included during meditation or prayer. Each chapter includes an affirmation that distills its core concepts into a sentence or two for the reader to easily practice throughout the day. Beckwith's personal and touching accounts guide the practitioner to integrate and activate the intrinsic gifts of divinity into everyday life.PThe core concepts of Beckwith's teachings are cohesively conceived and convincingly stated in the provocative chapters of ISpiritual Liberation/i. Topics covering "Evolved People," "Transportation to Trans-formation," "Transcending the Tyranny of Trends," and "Inner Ecology" are some of his foundational teachings that bring together insights from a range of spiritual paths to form a coherent practice that is neither Eastern nor Western but truly spiritually global.PRegardless of their belief system, readers will find it impossible to finish this book without at least a few "Aha!" moments.

Spiritual Liberation January 6, 2009

It will now be in my "top 5" of favorite, most life changing spiritual books I have ever read. And I am not even finished....br /He really is a Master walking among us. Everything he says makes perfect sense, and in a way that makes you believe you too, can obtain Spiritual Liberation (not like it's some esoteric thing you have to go sit on a pillow for 5 years straight to obtain.) And when I read it, not only does what he says resonate, but I feel GOOD when I read it...br /I highly recommend this book!

What I love most about this book is that it takes something very powerful and breaks it down to its most simple element. If you're busy, you can read the affirmation within a minute and have the big picture. I like this because it helps me to use these teachings daily.br /br /I have been a fan of Dr. Beckwith since the Secret and was happy to see that a new Secret book, The Secret Daily Teachings, has been released. This book also has powerful ideas, broken into daily affirmations which are quick to integrate within your life.br /br /I am so thankful to find books such as Spiritual Liberation, which I feel are more accessible than HUGE books which take forever to read and are almost written in a riddle.
Liberating and Powerful! December 16, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is an incredibly powerful book. Each chapter has an affirmation and reminder of how to live the eternal teachings Rev. Beckwith shares. The last chapter on the Dark Night of the Soul was timely and resonated with what I've been going through for several years. He describes the journey the soul takes for liberation, and shares his own experience throughout the book. The feelings I'd experienced were deeper than despair and depression, although that was part of it. Out of this came compassion, love and surrendering to the peace of the soul so that I may be there for another. This is what Agape's teachings embody, and Michael does it joyfully, powerfully and with inspiration. I highly recommend Spiritual Liberation. It's what we all came for - and here are tools to make it a reality. The rest is up to us. In love and gratitude - Rev. Malika, Center for Spiritual Enlightenment

I have the book and the CDs and I have to say the CD's are wonderful. Hearing Michael Beckwith's voice, especially when he does the affirmative prayers at the end of the chapters, is like having him pray for you one-on-one and that my friend is just AMAZING!!!
