Spiritual Psychology by Philip W. Groves

now available - $30
Spirtual Psychology - Liz Coggins ©2008

Spiritual Psychology is concerned with the arousal and development of the buried potentials of human life which are unknown to most people and but dimly suspected by a few. It is the application to ourselves of methods and disciplines that serve to establish the conditions in which a completely new kind of life may begin to appear. This new life is often referred to as rebirth or regeneration.

We cannot make it happen, because we have no power over the higher levels of the universe; but we can work upon ourselves and prepare the ground for the possible ingression of spiritual, celestial and Divine energies which are capable of reviving us. This book deals with details of a methodology which leads to self transformation.

Beyond the Fourth Way - Liz Coggins ©2008

Beyond the Fourth Way is an exploration of aspects of the Fourth Way, a methodology whereby an ordinary person can be awakened, developed and transformed so that they become a harmonized, conscious being.

We explore selected principles and techniques contained in Fourth Way material with a particular view to how valuable their application is for each person in daily life.

This very rich teaching system is then blended with the profound spiritual understanding of the Christian mystic Emanuel Swedenborg, to provide a deeply meaningful and practical approach to inner development and soul growth.

Science & Esoteric Wisdom - Liz Coggins ©2010

Science & Esoteric Wisdom is a compilation of public lectures in Sydney by Dr Groves between 1994 and 1998.
The material is variously a detailed study of a single aspect of the natural world as, for instance, in the chapters on the Lymphatic system, a Psychological View of Anatomy, and Plant and Human Interaction.

It is also a study of the esoteric as it has been presented at different times - in Ancient Egypt, Sufi material and more currently in the Fourth Way.

These chapters are all woven together with a common thread - that is the wonder and appreciation of the Divine - the source of all creation.

Spiritual Foundations - Liz Coggins ©2010

Spiritual Foundations is a detailed exploration of the ways in which a person is spiritually connected with the cosmos, and how the physical world contains spiritually significant and meaningful patterns and values which greatly contribute to understanding greater reality, and act as a link with the spiritual world.

An extensive study of the language of correspondences allows us real insight into Nature, and clarifies our relationship with the Whole.
