Provides a grater understanding of the gospels

Having read a number of White Eagle's books, I have found all to be of pure intent, based on love and with words that could have been spoken by Jesus. White Eagle describes the nature of our soul in these words: "Confusion still exists concerning the nature and functions of the soul and also of the spirit of man. Once spirit comes down to dwell in the flesh it starts to create what is called soul, for soul is that part of man's being which is built up through experiences undergone by the tender inner self of man during incarnation. Soul can be further described as the feminine aspect of man's life, the mother-principle ... the first principle being divine will, the father or masculine aspect." We are told that our soul separates from God so that it may grow. Our biggest challenge and test in this life is to learn love. It is not what others or life do to us but how we react that is important. Our reaction must always be based on love. The book is full of quotes from the Gospels, with heavy emphasis on St. John, such as: "The gospel of Saint John contains the truth of spiritual unfoldment from beginning to end and all the ancient wisdom, which every living soul is consciously, or unconsciously seeking. It gives new understanding of the value of every event, which makes up our everyday life and provides the vision, power, and wisdom to bring such knowledge through into our life on earth. Your life should be so directed and influenced by it that this knowledge radiates not only through your character but also through your body. If we study the Gospel of St. John with increasing understanding, we will start to express divine truth in daily life.""We may believe that sorrow will break us and question how a God of love can send such things, but God's love is so much greater than our human conception of love. God sends these happenings to strengthen the soul and to meet all experiences with tranquillity of spirit, never doubting that all is for its eventual good. Job underwent all kinds of sorrows but still held fast to the love of God and passed the test. He knew that whatever happened was something he deserved or which had come to test him for his final initiation. God sends us suffering only out of love; the soul is strengthened and through practice learns to stand unmoved. Nothing matters so long as you know that God or Christ is within you."For those who seek a greater understanding of the Gospels and the path of the soul, this book will be very helpful.
