Freudian concepts of unconscious guilt are prevelant, and brought to the fore with zeal. Forgiveness is emphasized as the ultimate method for finding a path to the truth, and complements very well concepts in buddism, and Christianity. Renard does a good job of reconciling Eastern and Western philosophies; his Socratic method of dialogue with "ascended masters" may be viewed with tongue in cheek as apposed to taking literally. However, the message and power at times is no less relevant no matter what the style or source.

Gary Renard

The Disappearance of the Universe

Book description

Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 0965680959, Paperback)

What would you do if you were sitting quietly in your living room when two mysterious strangers appeared from out of nowhere — and then told you they were "ascended masters" who had come to reveal some shocking secrets of existence and teach you the miraculous powers of forgiveness? Would you call the cops? Call a psychiatrist? Call out for pizza?

When two such teachers appeared before Gary Renard in 1992, he chose to listen to them (and ask a lot of impertinent questions). The result is this startling book: an extraordinary record of 17 mind-bending conversations that took place over nearly a decade, reorienting the author’s life and giving the world an uncompromising perspective on A Course in Miracles — a spiritual teaching destined to change human history.

"During our exchanges you will find out what you really are, how you got here, exactly why you and all other people behave and feel the way that you do, why the universe keeps repeating the same patterns over and over again, why people get sick, the reason behind all failure, accidents, addictions and natural disasters, the real cause of all of the violence, crime, war and terrorism in the world, the only meaningful solution to all of these things and how to apply it. . .You will not find compromise with us, and you will not always like it. That doesn’t matter. If we gave you everything you think you want, you’d be looking for something else a month later. With God’s speed we followed our way home. Our intention now is to help you find yours."
