The Loop. The psychology of normality

"At times I cried with the powerfulness of the connection I felt with Ren's words, especially relating to the writings on depression and addictions. I've always known with a deep spiritual sense that I was stumbling on the right path, or more to the point, struggling up the right mountain. Now I see I'm not stumbling at all, I am and have been doggedly moving forward towards... what? Not sure but I do know life is bloody wonderful!! Ren you are a star with your deep commitment to your writings. They are a gift to us all."

The Jesus Code

Dr Lexander’s argument that Jesus was a mystic or spiritual teacher, who showed that the kingdom of God is within, and to be realized by inwardness and spiritual discipline, is in my view correct.... The argument that Jesus was not and did not seriously claim to be the Jewish Messiah, except at the end, in order to provoke the Roman authorities to arrest and execute him, is fascinating... Dr Lexander’s arguments are interesting, original and provocative.

The Journey of the Souls

"A major part of my personal journey has been finding ways to heal a broken spirit. At some level I could never fully comprehend, I was acutely aware that complete healing could not take place within conventional psychology... Reading The Journey of the Souls and the meaning of life enlightened me. It gave meaning to my questions, and it gave me answers. I had wanted all my life to heal a wounded soul. The Journey of the Souls helped me find a way. To Ren, I am forever indebted."

The Jesus Code

Very well documented by a man with a deep knowledge about the Bible, and all the documents referring to Christ.

An original view of Christ ( who want a bien but a chosen son of God) and who may have been less important than John the Baptist. Interesting also to see that Jesus and his mother were at odds because Mary thought he was mad!
I think anybody studying Christianity should read this book and especially theologians.
It didn't change my views about God.I share most of Spinoza ideas and I think he would have liked this book in some aspects, not all though!

The Jesus Code

One of the most thought provoking books I have ever read.

I am not a religious person, and I certainly wouldn't define myself as a Christian. I am however somewhat spiritual in nature, and so I was attracted to this book on the basis that it seemed to offer a different, more 'spiritual' perspective on one of the most important characters in human history. I don't think I was prepared for how many of the author's thoughts would seem so logical to me, or resonate with me on such a personal level.

I have been shuffling along the path of inner transformation (as far as I can define it) for a long time now, but never have I heard such a plausible argument that the teachings of Jesus could be so deeply connected with that path. Reading the author's perspective on the Beatitudes was truly an awakening moment. One of many that I found peppered throughout the book, in fact.
This book might have you chuckling to yourself as you gaze into the mirror reflecting on your own life experience, or screaming in vitriolic resistance to the ideas and opinions the author expresses throughout its pages. Either way, I'll bet you'll be intrigued to read the follow-up work, The Crucifixion Code. I know I am.
