Part II is "The Learning" This part goes way beyond religious doctrine. Here topics such as suffering, real life roadblocks to spirituality, the worlds major religions and how close they really to each other.

About this title

From the Author:

I pray that those who read this book will come away with a deeper and richer understanding that God is truely within every particle of existance in this universe, both seen and unseen. There is an undeniable unity between science and religion if you open your minds to see the continuity that is there right before us. But in order to do this, one must realize that some of the three thousand year old doctrine of today's religions are meant for a different time, a different place and a different culture that did not have the advantage of God's on-going self revelation we do today. Part of this on-going self revelation is indeed through the advances of science. Read this book and be prepared to grow in spirit and understanding.

From the Back Cover:

Richard Ferguson has been called a modern renaissance man. He holds a degree in chemistry, a minor in philosophy, a master's degree in business, a master's degree in pastoral ministry majoring in spirituality. He is also holds a commercial pilots license with flight instructor ratings. He is already a published spiritual author having written "A Real Life Christian Spiritual Journey". He is also a Reiki Master and has been a spiritual seeker ever since a divine being unexpectedly appeared to him while riding in a commercial airliner high above the Pacific Ocean. It was an event that changed the direction of his life. Rich has said about the encounter that the amount of pure divine love that poured into my heart from that divine being was something that goes beyond human understanding. The Bible says seek and you will find, and Rich has found a very close relationship with God that has given him spiritual blessings that he uses for the benefit of others. Rich says that while he is conducting a Reiki healing session he feels an intimately close connection with God to the point that his whole body sometimes tingles in the most wonderful way that he wants it to never stop.
Rich has a scientific background. He worked for NASA in the planetary branch. With these experiences and education he has a deep inner desire to demonstrate that both science and religion are actually two sides of the same sacred coin. There is a pervasive unity that joins all of creation together into a divine mosaic in which we all live. This mosaic is what we call the universe of both the seen and unseen. One day humankind will realize this. Rich's second book is due out in November 2012 and is titled "The Story of Human Spiritual Evolution". Here he shows God's intimate involvement in creation as it has developed ever since the beginning.
