Reading List
 
Please recommend the books you have found most important to your spiritual development. Physical books, or at least PDFs that can be printed, not links to pages or videos. The reason I specify physical books is because the Internet may not make it through the transition. If you could take only one or two books with you , what would they be?

I've found this one particularly meaningful:
The Children of the Law of One and the Lost Teachings of Atlantis by Jon Peniel.

As a supplement: The Golden Rule Workbook by Jon Peniel and Jean D'Esprit

If you want someone to tell you the way is easy and we all get a free ticket, look elsewhere. If you want someone to tell you the specifics of the hard work you need to do, Peniel spells it out.

The Bible
The Masks Of God (four volumes) by Joseph Campbell
The Shepherd Of Hermas, author unknown
The writings of 'Abdu'l-Bahá and Shoghi Effendi
The Celestine Prophecy
The Journal of George Fox and other Quaker writings such as the journal of John Woolman

I know there are others; these were important to me, and I can recommend them wholeheartedly. I'd recommend Blavatsky and Crowley and The Urantia Book if I could do it without disclaimers.

If your background is Christian like mine, then it may be hard to throw off the mantle of dogma when the sun of truth becomes too intense. This is why people will not read the Bible with an open mind and heart. I highly recomment the Apostolic Fathers as represented by the Didache, The Shepherd Of Hermas and the early letters of the church, over the so-called "Lost Gospels" most of which were excluded from the canon with good reason.
