5.0

A clear and elegant little book, ahead of its time. A insightful mixture of mysticism with an evolutionary religious philosophy. All grounded in practical spiritual training: intention and conduct. I'm sure his other works go more in depth, but this was a great introduction to his writings for me.

If you enjoy reading Ken Wilber, Huston Smith or the spiritual writings of Aldous Huxley I'd highly recommend this book. It's clear why all three of those writers found some inspiration in the writings of Gerald Heard.
