In this volume, Jesus sets the record straight regarding a number of events in his life. He tells us: "I was born to a  simple woman in a barn. She was no more a virgin than your mother was." Moreover, the virgin birth was not the only myth surrounding his life and teaching. So were the concepts of vicarious atonement and physical resurrection. Relentlessly, the master tears down the rigid dogma and hierarchical teachings that obscure his simple message of love and forgiveness. He encourages us to take him down from the pedestal and the cross and see him as an equal brother who found the way out of suffering by opening his heart totally. . "The power of love will make miracles in your life as wonderful as any attributed to me," he tells us. "Your birth  into this embodiment is no less holy than mine. The love that you extend to others is no less important than the love I extend to you."

Reader Comments About this Book

I have been a student in a esoteric school of The Fourth Way Traditions for 20 years now.  This system was developed by Geroge Gurdjieff and Peter Ouspensky and is, in many ways, connected to esoteric Christianity. 
   I was in a bookstore in San Diego County putting the School's bookmarks in books related to Gurdjieff and Ouspensky (one of the ways we attract students) when my hand just reached out and grabbed your book from a nearby table and there was a certain emotional sense that I needed to buy it and I did. Reading this book has profoundly deepened my understanding of the issues of self vs. self-betrayal. I greatly appreciate the openness, the clarity and simplicity of expression in this and other Paul Ferrini books  which I have purchased since.
   Our school stresses the immense impotance of presence in the moment and that no real work can occur in sleep.  Your gentle words have helpted me to understand a broader why for this. While I can't put into words the deepening understandings that continue to come my way through your writings, I do want to offfer you my heartfelt thanks for your work.
