I Am the Soul's Heartbeat Volume 5: the Seven Signs in the Gospel of St John Kristina Kaine 2nd edition

The seven signs are associated with miracles performed by Jesus after he was baptised by John the Baptist. The life of Jesus is a blue print for our own spiritual development. Events such as these signs and miracles mark our progress. The ideas presented in these reflections assist us to become more aware of the changing human consciousness. Our consciousness today is vastly different to the consciousness of one hundred years ago, and certainly of two thousand years ago when St John wrote his Gospel. Yet the words John chose when he recorded the events of the life of Jesus assist us to understand the many ways in which our consciousness does change. At the core of our consciousness are three faculties; feeling, thinking and will. If we can become more aware of how these three work individually in us we will be able to take charge of them. Mostly they take charge of us and bring about habitual responses to life's situations. One of the purposes of Christ's presence on this earth was to reveal to us how these faculties can be transformed. These reflections aim to invoke a new understanding. The ideas presented here are just that ? ideas. Hopefully these ideas will inspire the reader to have even deeper insight into what John really means in his mystical gospel.
