Understanding Alpha Omega

by Robert Macfarlane Xiques

Understanding Alpha Omega Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This unique book offers an understanding of the nature of fear, which is the foundation of belief, and its subtle incorporation into the human psyche.Examples are given that fear, which is division, has constantly divided the thought of man and shall continue to do so until it has been understood. It is in the understanding of personal fear, whch is ignorance, that fear is coverted into knowledge and thereby is no longer division. Fear is revealed to be the foundation of human thought and, as division, its self-desructive effects on man can be enormous. Man has been conditioned to believe that only particular phenomena are generators of fear, but fear is more subtle than any belief as it appears and occurs throughout all belief. The understanding, or elimination, of fear is shown to require access to that which is absolute as it is within the individual. It is a quandary that belief in the absolute is itself an impediment to that which is absolute. As belief has a foundation of fear, the understanding of fear directs the individual to move back into belief in the absolute, or God, rather than simply rejecting, or dividing, oneself from it. The understanding of a belief emanating directly out of the absolute gives the individual believer access to that which is absolute and is the ultimate purpose of such a belief. The purpose of this book is to be a guide in returning any believer back into that which is the absolute as it is understood. The vocabulary used within this book is deliberately limited as much as possible. That which is truly understood and is desired to be understood by others, must be expressed in as clear and simple a manner as one is able. The emotional resistence to theunderstanding of fear, no matter how subtle, is difficult enough to overcome without having to deal with excessively difficult or obscure vocabulary and manner of expression.
