Reality is Spiritual Volume 1 (Paperback)

Paperback. In this book author Leon James presents the definitive answers and explanations given by Jung and Swedenborg on the question of our immortality. These two giants of psychology have explored what lies in the vast psychic riches of human consciousness. All human beings are intimately familiar with their own mental world, but few realize that it is part of a collective psychic world that is universal and eternal. We have access to each other's mental world by deepening our consciousness through the exploration of the collective unconscious. By looking within our own self we become conscious of the self of others. It is exciting to know that we are not alone in our mind and that the entire human race is interconnected through the collective unconscious that gives birth and development to the mind of each individual. Since the mind is immortal it must have an immortal body in which it can reside and operate forever. Death separates our mind from its connection to the physical body and world. Our afterlife in eternity is lived with this immortal body that is called the spirit body. Every human being is born into eternity with this immortal spirit body. While we are still attached to the physical body we are unconscious of our spirit body and its spiritual environment. The three-day dying resuscitation procedure separates us from the temporary physical body and therefore from the physical world. As we awaken in the full consciousness of the spirit body we suddenly are able to perceive and explore the afterlife of eternity. We then discover that all human beings awaken through death in the same spiritual world. Everyone who preceded us from the beginning of the universe is there with whom we can now interact and have relationships. This is very exciting to learn and to look forward to. Most of all, this knowledge allows us to control our afterlife destiny in eternity. The unparalleled genius and knowledge of Jung and Swedenborg provide the basis for presenting a coherent rational and unified scientific theory of the immortal human mind and of God's very close relationship to the human race and to every individual. More than anyone in history and science Swedenborg has brought to people a definite and specific knowledge of the dying process, the resuscitation after death into the afterlife world of eternity, and the detailed ethnographic descriptions of lifestyles in the afterlife, including the landscapes, the people, psychic cities, and habitations of heaven and hell, which are not places but good and bad mental states in every person's mind. In this book you'll find 150 brief selections from Jung's work and 85 longer selections from the work of Swedenborg. These two authors are giants in the history of psychology who enrich our knowledge and imagination of our present and of our immortal future. This book collects their ideas into short quotations and longer selections of what they wrote about the psychic world, God, death, immortality, resurrection, love, dreams, and other vibrant ideas from depth psychology, analytical psychology, and theistic psychology. The author, Leon James, who is knowledgeable in theistic psychology, shows how the ideas of Jung and Swedenborg complement each other, enriching our understanding of the spiritual topics they discuss and have become so vital to our modern technological generation.
