Quick Look
This book tells of the helpful spiritual powers both in human life and in nature, who support rather than hinder human freedom.
Description
During the twentieth century, many people realized that it is not only our conscious minds which matter, but that we are influenced by a far wider 'unconscious' realm. Many powers, the author explains -- including helpers and tempers -- are involved in this. These powers are aware of what they are doing, even as they are invisible to our eyes. They are known as spiritual powers.
Where does this leave human freedom? Surely our free action depends on an idea which we have developed consciously?
This book tells of the helpful spiritual powers both in human life and in nature, who support rather than hinder human freedom. To know about their work can bring order into much that may have seemed chaotic and meaningless. Bittleston draws both on ancient traditions which speak of Angels and Archangels and of the great beings up to Cherubim and Seraphim, and on the revelation of the spirit which is breaking through in our time.
Reviews
'This book will provide much useful and beautiful information about angel hierarchies, and how we can co-operate in some of their work on earth. Gives many helpful suggestions as to how to meditate and commune with angels night and morning.'
-- Judith Norwood, Science of Thought Review
'Adam Bittleston has assembled a wealth of insight. His book will be a welcome companion.'
-- Theodore van Vliet, News from the Goetheanum
