A series of Ten Lessons that discusses the Mosaic account of creation, which marks a new order of man, the beginning of the unfoldment of the _Son of Man_ type. Ida Mingle, teacher and founder of the School of Livable Christianity, writes that before this time both man and nature were involved in the wrath of consciousness, so now they were to be subdued by _waters_ (tranquility of soul). God, acting with Himself, through His Creative Will, caused the light to arise and the darkness to descend into the depths. Man became the formative power, through the Jehovah God of Himself, and was given all power, mastery and dominion over the _living creatures_ (Ideas of consciousness). The study of these lessons reveals to the reader how consciousness (Man) unfolded. Since Man is to be given a new Genesis, beginning at the harvest period of this age, it is imperative that he come into illumination respecting himself.

Over the past twenty-five years A. H. Almaas—widely recognized as a leader in integrating spirituality and psychology—has been developing and teaching the Diamond Approach, a spiritual path that integrates the insights of Sufism, Buddhism, Gurdjieff, and other wisdom traditions with modern psychology. In this new work, Almaas uses the metaphor of a "spacecruiser" to describe a method of exploring the immediacy of personal experience—a way of investigating our moment-by-moment feelings, thoughts, reactions, and behaviors through a process of open-ended questioning. The method is called the practice of inquiry, and Spacecruiser Inquiry reveals what it means to engage with this practice as a spiritual path: its principles, challenges, and rewards. The author explores basic elements of inquiry, including the open-ended attitude, the focus on direct knowledge, the experience of not-knowing, and the process of questioning. He describes the experience of "Diamond Guidance"—the inner wisdom that emerges from our true nature—and how it can be realized and applied. In this process Almaas looks at many of the essential forms of Diamond Guidance, including knowing, clarity, truth, love, intelligence, compassion, curiosity, courage, and determination. Also included are exercises and questions and answers from the original talks by Almaas on which the book is based.

The New Thought is the oldest thought in existence. It has been cherished by the chosen few in all ages; the masses of the people not having been ready for its teachings. Every religion has within it certain esoteric teachings, not grasped by the many, but understood by the few - which hidden teachings contain much that is now being taught as The New Thought. Ancient writers have carefully placed bits of this esoteric truth among writings of wide circulation, knowing that only those with the key could read, and the multitude would not even suspect the existence of the grain of wheat among the chaff....
