The old world is based on the knowledge of good and evil. The new world is based on the wisdom of love. The wisdom of love is accessed directly from the Divine. To recognize the wisdom of love is to know who you truly are, not an "ideal" self but your true desires, your deepest feelings, your unique identity. This wisdom is known through the heart. No outer teacher is needed, for the heart knows what no one can know for you.

Think of it! Think of the people who drift aimlessly through life, dissatisfied, struggling against a great many things but without clear-cut goals.

But it will be worth whatever effort it costs, because as soon as you can name your goal, you can expect to enjoy many advantages.

Drawing on examples from history and using sources in their original languages, Quintus Curtius' soaring vision combines lucid explanation with a passionate intensity like few other writers.

In 1952, Napoleon Hill spoke at a dental convention. He was introduced by insurance tycoon W. Clement Stone. Stone had been given a copy of Hill's best-selling book, Think and Grow Rich, and was so impressed that he gave away thousands of copies. Hill and Stone jointly wrote Success Through a Positive Mental Attitude in 1960, and it became an immediate best-seller. Over 50 years later, the book still sells well in the United States and all over the world.

Reconocer la sabiduría del amor en cada uno de nosotros es un modo de aceptar la realidad divina que nos constituye. Todos somos sabios a nuestro modo y dentro del saber del amor es donde conocemos nuestra esencia. Nadie nos puede responder a la pregunta de qué somos, salvo nuestro corazón por medio de la sabiduría que habita en él. Esa sabiduría no procede del mundo sino del cielo.

Christianity is the faith of the poor. As Christians, we worship the Lord Jesus Christ, who “though he was rich, yet for your sake became poor, so that by his poverty you might become rich” (2 Cor 8:9).

Sometimes it seems that we in the modern American church stand on opposite sides of an impassible gulf as we talk about poverty and justice.

Of all the many unexplained phenomena, experiences, and objects in the world, the ones that hold a great deal of fascination for most people are known as "ancient anomalies". These are ancient objects by scientific measure but in form or construction that appear to be relatively modern. They are impossible fossils, out-of-time technology, anachronistic artifacts, or even ancient ruins. In other words, if our history of the world is correct, they just should not exist.
