GOLDSMITH Joel 
Consciousness Unfolding
cover image of Consciousness Unfolding, for sale in New Zealand

Joel Goldsmith takes the reader deep into the principles of The Infinite Way, "the unfolding of consciousness. Our premise is that God, divine Consciousness, is unfolding, revealing, disclosing, and manifesting Itself as your individual being and as mine."
Goldsmith gives the foundation required for understanding how meditation and contemplation of scriptural truth help one come to the realisation that God is truly unfolding, revealing, and disclosing Itself as your individual being, and that you can trust that every issue of life - health, wealth, home, business, profession and relationships - will flow forth harmoniously.

The Thunder of Silence

Posits the principle that there is an inner Grace available to all that does not operate through or by physical might or mental powers, and most people are not aware of this Grace, but when It is consciously realized, it will bring into expression everything that is necessary to our unfoldment.
But there is a price, and this Grace operates only when we are willing to relinquish faith in anything and everything less than God; even faith in the "God" the world thinks it knows.
