Life and Teaching of the Masters of the Far East by Baird T. Spalding (1948, Paperback)

I'm a serious spiritual seeker; you know one of those people who is frustrated with institutional religions. I want to know and experience God in a more personal way. I've got a library stocked with more metaphysical books than I can count. But, something was always missing.

Friends, this is the bible. The series is not only filled with amazing stories about amazing people, but offers a "how to" that really works. This is not for the faint-hearted. Mastering the techniques involved is not difficult, but it does requires discipline.

One of my favorit sections of Volume II was a discussion regarding our error in making Jesus an idol instead of an ideal. In fact, there are quite a few passages that point out our misinterpretations of the New Testament.

Please note that this is a series of six books. It's best to begin with Volume I and I also found that it is less expensive to order the set (about $35) than to buy each book separately.

If you want to be entertained by miracle workers and learn some of their secrets to a happier and fuller life, read these books.
