Love is a Promise, a Discipline,
and a Lifestyle

$10.00 eBook download

This brand new title by Rev. Parrish-Harra is a treatise on Love—a word all know on the surface, although few understand esoterically that "love’s greatest work is to energize the evolving plan for Life."

    "Love is a unifying creative power. On the higher planes of Being, everything is created by thought. But for the fulfillment of these thoughtforms (on Earth), there must be these two ingredients united by Cosmic Love. Thus, in the foundation of each creation is laid the great Attraction, the great Love. All that is in the world depends on Love and is sustained by Love.

    "An awakened humanity is designed to reveal that at the heart of everyone there is a divine seed that seeks to blossom when it is nurtured by such currents as what we call “Love divine.”

E- Book Review
By Katherine Zakutansky

Love is a Promise, a Discipline and a Lifest
yle.

No truer words were ever spoken. From scripture teachings to real life lessons, this work takes that most complex of subjects — Love­- and highlights for us love's importance, presence, and how we grow in love and of love in this modern day. Reverend Parrish-Harra uses direct and understandable terms, insights and examples from daily life. She skillfully draws together the many threads of this subject and weaves a rich study of Love flowing thru the planes to reveal its true purpose in human life. This thought provoking work will interest anyone seeking a deeper understanding of how the power of love works in our lives to nurture us, transform us, and guide our consciousness ever higher toward Oneness.

As a Promise, the author discusses how Love heals all separations and divisions. In spiritual terms, it is the force or energy emanating from the higher worlds that promises our return to the state of Oneness with the Creator. The message of Love as the "unifying creative power" is woven throughout the piece. Love lies within each of us as that "spark of inner divine or creative potential." "If we allow love in our lives, as we open to it, we also open our hearts and thus we step onto the heart-centered path." The author artfully provides many streams of thought on how this is evident in our lives.

As a Discipline, the concept of love is explored thru the use of the energy of Will. Through self-love, choice, and control love is shown as an evolutionary power in our lives. Using the Universal Laws as a framework she explores how discipline is truly "love in action".

As a Lifestyle, the author deepens our awareness by showing loves relationship to our different energetic bodies as well as in our physical selves. When we work to open to the flow of Love, thru disciplined steps, we open to change. We open our hearts so that our consciousness can make a shift. This heart —centered way, is the message of the Christ and is discussed here with corroborating passages of scripture.

Rev. Parrish-Harra also guides us in the challenges we face by stepping into the stream of Love and allowing transformative process this unleashes. She explores the many ways the heart center is vital to that process. Hearts and flowers it is not, but an honest and insightful approach to how love flows in the world — or not. It shows us how to recognize love from its affects on us and by our love's affect on others.

Written on several levels, this work is one you can return to again and again for the thought provoking personal insights it sparks. It is a true synthesis of the subject of Love from many dimensions. It will incite your thoughts, stir your desire, and compel to action those who would open their hearts to become a bridge between the worlds. Each bite can be savored for its complexity or gulped down for its nourishment. It is a must read for all those on the path. If you are looking for something to linger on your I-pod for a while as a tool for self - revelation, study or transformation, then I highly recommend this work and eagerly look forward to her next thoughts.
