mind and ego blowing stuff

As a spiritual and holistic healer for many years, I have studied many spiritual traditions and metaphysical practices including Tibetan Buddism, Esoteric Christianity, Anthroposophy, Classical Yoga, Chinese Medicine Spirituality, etc. Gary's first book, Disappearance of the Universe, completely turned everything I thought I knew about spiritual truth on it's head. This follow up book, which I've just started reading, is so delicious, I keep reading it in little bites just to savor the bliss of the message as long as I can. These books completely changed my life, and my spiritual awareness. My intuitive healing abilities have even evolved to a point that I can only say is inspired by the Holy Spirit itself. This message is truly "the light and the way", folks. Fasten your seat belts and get ready to become free!

After The Disappearance of the Universe comes Your Immortal Reality

Some things just ring true when you read or hear them. A deeper aspect of yourself, or that intuitive place inside sometimes just knows that this is the real deal. This is most especially the case with Gary Renard's books. I am talking about the radical teachings on forgiveness themselves, not necessarily what one makes of the ascended masters, Arten and Pursah, who are said to have conversed with the author in his living room. Make no mistake about it; this is not some New Age channeled hooey designed to simpy make you feel good about yourself or the world at large. This IS the real deal, and as far as I can tell, so are Arten and Pursah, but that doesn't really matter. The subtitle of the book is "How to Break the Cycle of Birth and Death." Now some people might ask why they would necessarily even want to break this cycle, although such a query would be a stretch today given the mess the illusory world seems to be in at this time. But let's face it. Life isn't all bad, and in fact, can sometimes seem downright fun and rewarding. It also, of course, depends on who you are and what kind of shape your life is currently in. But the best analogy I have ever heard in this regard came from a book I read by a Tibetan Buddhist who was imprisoned for many years following the Chinese invasion of Tibet in 1959. His captor and personal guard would take one day of every week, Tuesday, to spend most of that day torturing him. On one particular Tuesday, the captor had a note sent to the Buddhist monk that the captor would not be able to torture him that day because he had fallen ill. But the guard assured the Buddhist that he would torture him again on the following Tuesday. Even though the monk's dismal and degrading surroundings were unchanged, even though he was still literally given garbage to eat in filthy and inhumane conditions, that Tuesday was one beautiful day. Enough said. If you have not already done so, I would recommend reading "The Disappearance of the Universe" before reading "Your Immortal Reality." I think you'll get much more out of each book that way. The most refreshing thing about Gary Renard is that he is a straight shooter with a good sense of humor. He doesn't appear to be a person who takes himself too seriously, yet the teachings themselves could not be more important. A Course in Miracles is, as others have noted, a Christianized version of Advaita Vedanta. I can think of no higher teaching, nor a more direct route to the ultimate goal of full realization of our oneness with God. Don't be surprised or in the least discouraged, then, if you find your ego resisting your efforts to practice real forgiveness as described in the Course. This is not easy stuff, and anyone who suggests that it is, must either be a fully enlightened master or someone who has completely deluded themselves. Still, is there anything in life more important than our efforts in this regard? After all, isn't today Tuesday?

A Great Read

This book is filled with fascinating events, great teachings and a wonderful sense of humor. Renard's bluntness and clarity are like a breath of fresh air. His teachers are the same as the first book and they continue to deliver top notch teachings in a way everyone can accept and understand. Your Immortal Reality also tells more of Renard's personal story. I feel like I know him and where he's coming from a lot better now. This is a great follow up to "The Disappearance of the Universe" and a great read.

Doesn't Compromise

I love this book because it doesn't compromise at all on its radical message or the message of "A Course in Miracles." You also get the complete Gospel of Thomas in one chapter the way it was meant to be given and without the sayings that were added on later by others. Most importantly, the book is fun to read and Renard's sense of humor shines through. This is a very advanced spiritual book put in easy to understand, everyday language. I'm reading it again.
