Rasha

I have a little problem with channeled books: none of their claims have to be backed up with any kind of evidence. Simply because they come from an other-worldly voice, the audience is supposed to accept their claims as fact. There is a danger in such blind faith. (Recall two other people who channeled -- David Koresh and Jim Jones.) Teachings that are derived from channeling are different from say those of the Buddha. The Buddha based his teachings on personal experience and observations and encouraged others to verify his teachings for themselves through their own experience. Also, he was careful to explain his teachings based on steps of reasoning. This book, as well as the two other channeled books I have read, do little of that.

With that said, I did greatly value this book for the inspiration it imparted. It really helped me to think outside the box in imagining the great possibilities of our spiritual evolution. One very specific thing that spoke to me was the author's assertion that we can use our ego's trigger issues as a means to let go and pull us out of the vortex of painful repeating occurrences. I am familiar with this concept, however, the author did a very good job of driving it home, so much so that I am actually looking at a personality conflict I am having at the moment as an opportunity to raise my energy to a higher frequency simply by letting it go. In the past, I would not have been able to this very well, but now, I feel that I can override my ego because of the image of myself this book has painted if I do. It doesn't matter to me if Oneness is completely accurate in all its assertions, it is enough for me that it sparks my imagination of what I can become.… (altro)

This is a wonderful book – a sort of bible. Time has not permitted me to finish this voluminous work since I have obtained it as an unrenewable library book. But it takes only the reading of a few pages to realize the value of the book, and I have read many of its pages.

I have not read the original book “Oneness”, but the present book tells of Rasha’s spiritual progress subsequent to channeling first a spirit guide called Amitabh and then Oneness. (I understand Oneness as being the Source.) The book consists largely but not solely of transcripts of Rasha’s illuminating conversations with Oneness and other high beings, including the Christ consciousness.

Rasha has experienced adversity; she is told by Oneness that this is an opportunity for her to “master, once and for all, the mechanics of creating your reality”. She is told that she should not utter a negative statement about anything, regardless of whether or not she feels it is justified. Every word that passes her lips should be uplifting to the listener. Gossip and complaining must be eradicated. “Your speech is a powerful tool when carefully employed. It is a danger to you when used carelessly.”

Rasha has an inspiring relationship with a spiritual master called Dr. Bindu Purohit, who teaches her White Tantra and how to chant Sanskrit mantras.

Strange things happen to her, including a lost package and an “energetic” car crash, and Oneness explains to her the significance of these.

Rasha writes in a perfect, elegant, divinely articulate manner, the like of which I haven’t previously encountered. The explanations and teachings of Oneness and others are profound and enlightening.

I would highly recommend that you read this book, at least if you can take a year off to devote yourself to studying it (!!). It may not take a year to read but it will take considerable time. It is an amazing, satisfying and addictive book and I hope to come back to it, though it may be in another life. Enjoy this book, the reading of which will expedite your spiritual development.… (altro)
