Be the Second Coming is a timely how-to guide for connecting to the divine presence that is within each of us.
Practical exercises will help us to see "all as one," which is the bridge to seeing as a Christ sees. Learn to see the structures, people, animals, and the very earth around us as part of who we are in the largest sense. In seeing this way, fears and limitations can drop away, enabling us to relax in a new way and giving us the power to transform lives and the world we all share.
There is a distinguishing difference of meaning between Jesus and Christ. His given name was Jesus; his honorific title was "Christ." In his little human body called Jesus was born the vast Christ Consciousness, the omniscient Intelligence of God omnipresent in every part and particle of creation.
- Paramahansa Yogananda, The Yoga of Jesus
What is remarkable to me about this writing is the profound affect it has on me, each and everytime i enter into the reading of another section or passage. I find myself to be extremely intrigued, yet simultaneously calmed and reassured as though a voice in me says, "OF COURSE and isn't that good news! " I find Hope's way of teaching to be, gentle, clear and encouraging. The information shared within is profound and yet exceptionaly simple. There is nothing that feels beyond me when i read this teaching. I am encouraged in all ways to take this knowlege to heart and remember it and live it to the best of my abilitity each day.
As i was meditating on what i would like to say about this astonishing gift that Hope has brought into the world, my fingers opened to the first page of Book II. There, Hope asks the question: "What is the full manifestation of Christ Conscousness?" and right there is the line that i felt perfectly describes what i feel about Hope's teaching:
"Jesus... "It is...one who has allowed the Truth of 'what is' to express itself fully in form without interference or distortion on the level of the human."If you are someone who, like myself , have been searching for a clear and true understanding of the direct means of aligning yourself to the highest possible consciousness of unconditional love; to the Christ Light within; who may have been searching for a long time, for that elusive Inner Peace; or for a sense of reassurance that there is indeed design and purpose and A WAY to imbue Christ Consciousness; if you have needed this to be somehow clearer and more actually attainable, then in reaching for this teaching, i think you will find that you have come home.
Blessings to Hope for the years of love to bring this timely Teaching home to us
Blessings to all of you who have found your way here. May you be at Peace

". Reading your book has placed me in this wondrous, contemplative, actively peaceful state. I want to acknowledge that and to tell you that the overriding, intense understanding that your extraordinary story of an ongoing relationship through pure thought (with Milosevic) has evoked in me is that ALL our relationships are, in truth, vertical in nature."

In May of 2005, the author went into the woods and journeyed down a tunnel to a brightly lit cavern. She returned with an urgent message from the creatures of the Earth to all humanity.
Meet the toad, weasel, beetle, lizard, caterpillar, snake, hedgehog, spider and opossum. Learn the difference between natural time and artificial time and the role that time plays in the health of the Earth. Come away with the 6 points that the small creatures wish to share with humans.
For adults and children, illustrated by the author.
"The weasel was larger than one would expect, just like the toad. She was slender, upright and a bit nervous. She bowed to me before speaking in a thin, squeaky voice, "I wanted so much to meet you. You have no idea... Well..." she continued, realizing this wasn't the topic and that the toad might become impatient. She glanced up at the toad before hurrying on, "What I... so wanted to tell you about, is the need for awareness and greater understanding of the little animals and the wee ones that inhabit the Earth. When you bigger folk do things, you make it so we can't do what we need to do. We mix the mulch layer and create the scurry and movement that is required at this level. We are the tenders of the skin of Mother Earth. We mix and improve what lies on the ground. When we can't do this, the Earth loses circulation."
Where the Wisdom Lies is a fable about one woman's fantastical journey that sets her upon an environmental/spiritual quest crusade. The adventure starts off on a seemingly normal day. The author is walking her dog in the woods, like she had done many times before. However, on this particular day, the author is exposed to a hidden world. While resting against a tree, Hope finds a door to a place called the Underworld.
The Underworld is home to all sorts of creatures: beetles, snakes, toads, weasels, spiders, and a gnome. Over the course of a few weeks, Hope visits these individuals multiple times. Each time she returns from her journey, the author has learned (or been reminded) of another important lesson. In the end, she is urged to share her finding with the rest of the world.
Where the Wisdom Lies is an important reminder in these busy chaotic times of the importance of balance and natural cycles. We need to understand the consequences of our actions and inactions.
