About this ebook
Health, Prosperity, Abundance, Purpose, Peace, Happiness - all awaiting you through your direct personal relationship with God.
God wants to communicate with each of us and have a relationship with each of us - most of us don’t know it’s possible - or know how.
Read how the author discovered a way to communicate and have a relationship with God, and guides the reader to have their own direct personal relationship with God.
Benefits include:
A fascinating discussion of experiences from the author’s ongoing direct relationship with God - including yes God is real, yes the Soul is real, there are no physical attributes (gender, race, ethnicity, class, status, intelligence, etc.) from a physical life that are part of each person's soul - they do not exist outside of the realm of a specific physical life.
Discover each person’s unique life purpose to fulfill - the reason we are here - God’s communication is mostly about aiding each of us to fulfill our life purpose. Could you ask for a better life coach?
Learn to come to a state of silence, peace, happiness, and purpose, where God’s messages can be received, understood, and acted upon.
Fulfill your own unique life purpose - the most rewarding and satisfying thing you can do in life. If you become aware of it and try, you likely will fulfill it.
Through acting in our own personal best interest, and in achieving our life purpose, we can do our part in making the world a better place - both for ourselves and our future generations.
From The Book:
You can have a personal, direct relationship with God - pure Spirituality - and experience God directly.
God is not male or female - just simply God
Through Spirituality a person can find a path to prosperity, harmony, health, well-being, happiness, and fulfillment of life purpose.
God is sending communication to you, and to each one of us. God wants to communicate with you, as God does with each and every one of us. God has always been sending messages to you, and it is up to you to receive them and incorporate them into your life. Think about the benefit in receiving those messages and applying them in your quest to fulfill your life purpose.
God wants to have a relationship with you, as God does with each and every one of us.
Fulfilling our life purpose and theme is the most rewarding and satisfying thing we can do in life.
From my experience it is clear to me God really does exist, and it is possible to communicate with God - in both directions - send messages and receive messages. I now do and I know you can do the same - as I am not special in any way.
Referring to my first attempts to communicate with God - "...I was pretty well floored when God answered..."
I hadn't been getting that God was regularly trying to communicate with me, and from what I can tell almost no one else knows God is trying to communicate with them.

Ancient Spirituality - MartinR
Preface
From December 2014 to the time of this writing (and beyond to the very present) I have been on a quest to develop a direct personal relationship with God. All my life I have had a feeling that there was more to the concept of God than I had known. Probably a lot more. Something
kept energizing me relentlessly to seek, to question, to open, to discover, to directly experience God.
Turns out that something
was God - as I would later come to understand.
I was ready, the time was right for me (this was early December 2014), and I was convinced it was time to act. It was time to commit to my quest for the rest of my life if necessary - thoroughly willful and completely dedicated - to really experience God. Direct and personal. I set aside all preconceived notions of what to expect - everything I have been taught, everything I have read, all opinions of other persons, and my own. That took a bit of doing! I felt I was ready for the quest. I decided to remain completely open and focus on allowing God into my life and to allow myself to experience God directly. I only knew I was longing for a real experience with God that I hadn't yet had in my life.
And then it happened.
I began to experience God directly. I began to have an aware, personal, direct relationship with God. I received communication from God and knew God was aware of my communication to God. That relationship continues to grow to this day and will continue throughout the rest of my life (and beyond of course).
And the same can apply to anyone and everyone - and specifically to you - as that is God's intent.
The rest of this book is my introduction to what I've learned so far in my relationship with God, how the communication happens, and how you, dear reader, can have your own direct and personal relationship with God.
Chapter One
Then And Now
In The Beginning
Imagine the time before cultures and religions existed and divided humanity. Spirituality was simply each person's direct connection with God. That is all Spirituality was - just a direct personal relationship with God - with God acting as life coach in helping a person realize and fulfill their life purpose.
Through Spirituality a person learned their own personal life purpose. Through Spirituality a person found a path to prosperity, harmony, health, well-being, and happiness. Through Spirituality a person found a path to fulfillment of their life purpose. Through Spirituality a person experienced God.
As the roots of civilizations formed and grew, organizational systems such as kingdoms, governments, and religions sprang forth and gained dominance over the human mind. From organizational systems arose attachment to identity and therefore conflict - an unfortunate result of the we are we and you are different
mindset that attachment to identity fosters. That conflict managed to reach into and grasp every tiny corner of the world. As a result detrimental drama was born. Unfortunately, as detrimental drama took hold, Spirituality - that ancient personal connection with God, was lost.
Let us, at least for a time, set such differences aside and lower all aspects of detrimental drama in our lives.
Let us simply find the peace that silence brings and allow that deep, old, sacred, direct connection with God to come back into our lives.
Perhaps our organizational systems, our lives, our relationships with one another, and God, will all realize great benefit!
A Perfect Spirit
Let us be silent and be at peace
Let us have open hearts and open minds
Let us directly experience God
Let us allow a bit of love and happiness and joy and compassion into our lives
The Point Of This Book Is To Discuss:
I have developed a direct and personal relationship with God.
You can have your own unique direct and personal relationship with God.
I believe it would be in all persons own personal best interests to have a direct personal relationship with God; e.g. this would enrich and benefit you, myself, our world, and God.
To generally share aspects of my relationship with God, with you, in order to inspire and encourage you to have your own personal relationship with God.
Throughout This Book We Will:
Explore God’s concept of what is in our own best interest
, our life purpose and theme, and why these are so important.
Examine what keeps us from having our
