About this title

From the Inside Flap

Many persons who meditate, pray, and fast have little understanding of the necessity to balance these practices with insightful and vigilant adherence to the Laws and Commandments of God. Jonathan Murro demonstrates through this powerful and penetrating book the dangers as well as the blessings of the spiritual life, enabling sincere seekers after Truth to embrace the grace-treasures of their souls while avoiding the pitfalls upon the Path. He writes, "A devotee of the Lord progresses on the Spiritual Path only to the degree that he sees and loves the Image of God in every living soul."

The author presents the reader with new and revelatory instruction regarding Image-of-God Genetics, and discusses the roles heredity and genetic tendencies play in one's life. He also breaks new ground with his instruction concerning the sattvic nervous system and the science of sensitivities. In The Divine Image, Jonathan Murro gives the reader the tools to attain a sattvic or peaceful nervous system, and to acquire the spiritual sensitivities that prosper union with the Presence of God.

About the Author

Jonathan Murro, co-founder of the Ann Ree Colton Foundation of Niscience, Inc., was born in Brooklyn, New York, on October 31, 1927. Following a prayer to serve God, Jonathan met his future teacher and wife, Ann Ree Colton, in 1951. Recognizing the profound value and rarity of her knowledge and communion with God, he committed himself to the preservation and transcribing of her lectures, inspirations, and spiritual receivings. Author and co-author of nine books and countless lectures on spiritual subjects, Jonathan became a qualified spiritual teacher in his own right. After Ann Ree's passing in 1984, Jonathan served as the Administrator of the Ann Ree Colton Foundation for seven years, until his death. Jonathan left the profound legacy of his own initiatory path toward God Realization, his tremendous appreciation and articulation of Cosmos-spirituality, his clarification of the "holy war" between light and dark, and his perceptive elucidation of the challenges of modern-day discipleship, as well as many other spiritual principles related to the higher life.
