Phyllis V. Schlemmer, Edited by Mary Bennett, The Only Planet of Choice, Essential Briefings from Deep Space, Gateway Books, Bath, UK, 1993, 342 pp.
"Since its spectacular launch in 1993, The Only Planet of Choice has been widely acknoledged as one of the most significant books for our time. Many of those thousands who have already read it have spoken of the profound effect it has had upon them.
"This book represents the outcome of twenty years of work by a distinguished international research group whose members have been communicating through psychic transceiver, Phyllis Schlemmer, with an elightened circle of universal beings known as the Council of Nine.
"Their dialogues have continued and the result is this updated edition of The Only Planet of Choice. Published this time without any linking commentaries but with a vital new chapter on the 1990s, the book contains a mass of fresh and pressing information of particular relevance to our troubled world as it approaches the end of the millennium.
"Its underlying theme is free will and the power of the inhabitants of Planet Earth to create a better, more harmonious world. Among the many themes covered in detail are the existence of ET civilisations and their interactions with Earth, the nature of the Source of the Universe, the ancient history of humanity, Jesus the Nazarene, environmental issues and humankind's as-yet-unrealised potential for self-awareness. But, above all, for those who are prepared to listen and heed its message, it offers a positive outcome for the future.
"New readers will welcome the opportunity to explore this riveting book for the first time. Existing readers will want to discover the wise new truths it contains."
Helen Schucman and William Thetford, A Course In Miracles, Foundation For Inner Peace, Tiburon, CA, 1975, 477 pp.
INTRODUCTION
"This is a course in miracles. It is a required course. Only the time you take it is voluntary. Free will does not mean that you can establish the curriculum. It means only that you can elect what you want to take at a given time. The course does not aim at teaching the meaning of love, for that is beyond what can be taught. It does aim, however, at removing the blocks to the awareness of love's presence, which is your natural inheritance. The opposite of love is fear, but what is all-encompassing can have no opposite.
"This course can therefore be summed up very simply in this way:
Nothing real can be threatened.
Nothing unreal exists.
"Herein lies the peace of God."
[*****easily one of the top five metaphysical books; not easy reading, but oh so profoundly simple and truthful. Must reading, what you can of it.]
Helen Schucman, The Gifts of God, Foundation for Inner Peace, 1982, 128 pp.
"Into Christ's Presence will we enter now, serenely unaware of everything except His shining face and perfect Love. The vision of His face will stay with you, but there will be an instant which transcends all vision, even this, the holiest. This you will never teach, for you attained it not through learning. Yet the vision speaks of your remembrance of what you knew that instant, and will surely know again."

Tara Singh, Dialogues on A Course In Miracles, Life Action Press, Los Angeles, 1987, 402 pp.
"Dialogues On A Course In Miracles is a vital and compelling document of actual class sessions with Tara Singh and a small group of students who have been studying A Course In Miracles together, on a daily basis, for over three and a half years. The issues addressed in these sessions are basic ones -- fear, insecurity, internal conflict, guilt ... They apply to all mankind and to all those who aspire to realize their true Identity.
"Dialogues On A Course In Miracles is concerned with how we deceive and limit ourselves through our unwilligness to change. It deals with awakening each individual to his function, where the universal forces meet and extend Eternal Laws."

Tara Singh, How to Learn from A COURSE IN MIRACLES, Life Action Press, Los Angeles, 1988, 172 pp.
"A Course In Miracles is of Absolute Knowledge. Step by step it brings one to transformation. Relative knowledge can be preached and taught, bought and sold, but that which is of God is shared.
How To Learn From A Course In Miracles -- now in a new and expanded second edition -- is an ideal introduction to the study of the Course. In this bestselling book, Tara Singh provides insight into the first forty lessons of the Workbook For Students, demonstrates how to read the Course in order to receive its Truth, and gives a uniquely inspired commentary on forgiveness, a basic tenet of the Course."
Jonathan C. Smith, Meditation, A Sensible Guide to a Timeless Discipline, Research Press, Champaign, IL, 1986, 219 pp.
"I have one goal in writing this book on meditation. I do not want to persuade you to meditate. I do believe that meditation can be a deeply rewarding personal adventure, but for some people, it can be a waste of time. My point in writing a book is this: the essence of meditation can be discovered without ever uttering a single prayer, mantra, or count of breath. I wish only to challenge you to look, question, and perhaps see a timeless discipline in a fresh new way."

"The hallmark of the spiritual person is awareness or the ability to be awake . . . Wakefulness is an essence activity whereas being asleep is a basic function of false personality . . . Being awake is a product of wider and deeper perception of your own actions and those of others. As you become more perceptive, you become more aware of essence directed activity . . . Wider perceptivity allows you to live life more fully and effortlessly and to become more tolerant of others, their lessons and goals this lifetime. These may be different from your own but just as valid . . . As you become more tolerant, you develop the ability to heal yourself. As you heal yourself, you heal others."
