This Dynamic World is visually beautiful and full of useful knowledge. The book makes plain what has been obscure. Long before our "New Age" of Aquarius or even the environmental evangelism of "an inconvenient truth," Charles Morgan, 91 year old "Hindu preacher" and "farmer philosopher," revealed the secrets of the last days. For instance, we learn that Levi Dowling brought forth the Akashic Record and Aquarian Gospel of Jesus Christ not in the 1960s, but in the 1860s. Long before the "planned community," "open space," or "green space," Charles Morgan postulated the "city in a building." From the dust bowl to today's "drying of the west," this farmer said we farm too much and honor nature too little. This Dynamic World leads us to prophets from Moses to Edgar Cayce, thinkers from Plato to Confucius, scientists from Einstein to Hawking, and also spiritual masters like Paramahansa Yogananda, the first Hindu yogi in America and his disciple. In this book, we learn from saints like Paul and John on his isle of Patmos as well as from heavenly messengers (called by some angels, by others astral beings). We find God With Us (called by some Messiah, by others avatar). The book is a key to enlightenment on a spiritual level of existence in a planetary community for individual and worldwide salvation where we are all related and must relate to each other. This is the concept of "biorelativity." This Dynamic World calls us on a Worldwide Crusade for Biorelativity. This Dynamic World uses the "fabric of time" as a scientific basis for prophecy and the astral cycle of George King, Jeanne Dixon, and Ruth Montgomery. We embrace "good vibrations," "energy," meditation, and "yoga" but also the Word of God and the philosophies of men in a determination to take blessed action.

This deluxe edition of Invincible includes the Children of Domestic Violence award-winning documentary film, THE CHILDREN NEXT DOOR, previously only available through select screenings. “It’s a masterpiece – smart, tough, fearless, and miraculously compact.” – The Stranger In•vin•ci•ble: incapable of being overcome “When you grow up living with domestic violence, witnessing those you love tear each other down with physical and verbal blows, your brain doesn’t know how to deal with that.”—From the Foreword According to UNICEF, growing up with domestic violence is one of the most pervasive human rights violations in the world, affecting more than a billion people. Yet, too few people are aware of the profound impact it can have. Invincible seeks to change this lack of awareness and understanding with a compelling look at this important issue, informing and inspiring anyone who grew up living with domestic violence—and those who love them, work with them, teach them, and mentor them. Through powerful first-person stories, including the author’s own experiences, as well as insightful commentary based on the most recent social science and psychology research, Invincible not only offers a deeper understanding of the concerns and challenges of domestic violence, but also provides proven strategies everyone can use to reclaim their lives and futures. What did you learn growing up with domestic violence? Do you know how this has had an impact on your life? How have you dealt with it? Today, are there certain things about yourself that you wish weren’t true? Many of them aren’t. They are lies you learned. Invincible exposes the lies, reveals the truths, and offers the insight and the skills you need to go from feeling and acting: Guilty to Free Resentful to Compassionate Sad to Grateful Angry to Passionate Hopeless to Guided Worthless to Accomplished Fearful to Confident Self-Conscious to Attractive Unloved to Loved The truth is, no obstacle you will ever face can compare to what you went through as a child and have already conquered. The author is donating all net royalties to the Children of Domestic Violence Foundation (CDV).
