Pages : 265
Book Description
‘In January 2009, something very special happened to me that completely changed the course of my life and myself as a person. After a series of strange events, a Being of Light appeared and rescued me from the midst of some very dark, grotesque, threatening, red-eyed beings. At that time, I didnt know what was going on or who these spirits were. After a few incredible visions and spiritual experiences, I started to develop an inner eye and acquired some abilities that enabled me to free my soul and go soul travelling. I was still scratching the surface of this new existence; I didn’t know the meaning or why all of this was happening to me. Soon, I started to feel very hungry for knowledge; I wanted and needed to know more.’This is the story of Benedetto Daniele Fiorista, who was inspired by a spiritual existence one day to change the way he lived. He started to read books on the subject and realised he was being put under initiation – which lead him to take a journey, which many refer to as the ‘journey of the spiritual warrior’. ‘After many tests and events, my soul started to call out for deliverance. By this time, I found myself absorbed in hours of meditation every day. I was trying to empower myself by using what I had learnt during my searches and studies.’In Bring to the Light, Benedetto tells his story, the stages of this spiritual process and their difficulties and rewards. It will appeal to fans of spiritual books and those both searching for answers and questioning the reasons for their existence.‘In the past two and half years, I have searched and I have found. I feel that to share this with the outer world is part of my growth.’

Where the Light Fell
Author: Philip Yancey
Publisher: Convergent Books
ISBN: 0593238524
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 321
Book Description
In this searing meditation on the bonds of family and the allure of extremist faith, one of today’s most celebrated Christian writers recounts his unexpected journey from a strict fundamentalist upbringing to a life of compassion and grace—a revelatory memoir that “invites comparison to Hillbilly Elegy” (Publishers Weekly, starred review). “Searing, heartrending . . . This stunning tale reminds us that the only way to keep living is to ask God for the impossible: love, forgiveness, and hope.”—Kate Bowler, New York Times bestselling author of Everything Happens for a Reason Raised by an impoverished widow who earned room and board as a Bible teacher in 1950s Atlanta, Philip Yancey and his brother, Marshall, found ways to venture out beyond the confines of their eight-foot-wide trailer. But when Yancey was in college, he uncovered a shocking secret about his father’s death—a secret that began to illuminate the motivations that drove his mother to extreme, often hostile religious convictions and a belief that her sons had been ordained for a divine cause. Searching for answers, Yancey dives into his family origins, taking us on an evocative journey from the backwoods of the Bible Belt to the bustling streets of Philadelphia; from trailer parks to church sanctuaries; from family oddballs to fire-and-brimstone preachers and childhood awakenings through nature, music, and literature. In time, the weight of religious and family pressure sent both sons on opposite paths—one toward healing from the impact of what he calls a “toxic faith,” the other into a self-destructive spiral. Where the Light Fell is a gripping family narrative set against a turbulent time in post–World War II America, shaped by the collision of Southern fundamentalism with the mounting pressures of the civil rights movement and Sixties-era forces of social change. In piecing together his fragmented personal history and his search for redemption, Yancey gives testament to the enduring power of our hunger for truth and the possibility of faith rooted in grace instead of fear. “I truly believe this is the one book I was put on earth to write,” says Yancey. “So many of the strands from my childhood—racial hostility, political division, culture wars—have resurfaced in modern form. Looking back points me forward.”

Luminous Night's Journey clarifies how the unveiling of Being and the exposure of ego structures constitute one process, leading to the soul's integrated realization of absolute nature and the manifestation of the human being as a personal embodiment of that nature.
