Discover the Power in Each of Us to Form Our Own Rewarding, Unique Relationship with God
Finally, an understandable look at how a new type of spirituality is completely recasting our relationship to God, the divine and each other. In Divine Acceptance, Dr. Dorothy W. Parker starts with a very simple foundation that God accepts us unconditionally, and each of us has the power to achieve spiritual enlightenment on our own. It's quite a change from our traditional understanding of God and man's relationship. But Dr. Parker shows how the failings of past religious dogmas inhibited our spiritual and cultural growth by demanding our adherence to an external belief system; one characterized, more often than not, by rejection. Parker's remarkable approach asks us to look within ourselves;not without;for the answers to our deepest questions. This "spiritual retreating" within ourselves is not withdrawal, or even incompatible with traditional religious systems. But developing a personal spirituality will force you to confront your soul, acknowledge the reality of your true self and help you to become acquainted and comfortable with your own spiritual outlook.Mixing cutting-edge research, the latest philosophical teachings and contemporary culture, Divine Acceptance anticipates a more loving, peaceful and humane world united in spiritual understanding.
