Отрывок из книги
God has appeared in my life in so many extraordinary ways including those individuals who have long since left the earth plane but continue to be a present presence such as my mother who inspired my search, as John van Druten, who encouraged my determination to leave no stone unturned and in the process introduced me to two illumined masters, Joel S. Goldsmith and Swami Prabhavananda, each of whom pointed me in different, although parallel and complementary directions.
I also want to express my appreciation for Teilhard de Chardin, Carl Jung, and many others who shared their vision through the printed word, and presently for Dr. Tadashi Akaishi who was responsible for Harper and Row's publishing my first three books and who has edited all that followed, including this one.

When I had my breakthrough in Hawaii, I saw that if I subjectively felt “It’s all God” without expressing that love objectively by my acts, I would end up creating the very duality I claimed did not exist. In reverse, if I took action that was not based on the Spirit of Love I would be doing the same thing. I realized that if I could love God, the subjective nature of life, and neighbor and self, the objective world, all in the same way and to the same degree I could honestly say, “It’s all God.” In other words, the turning point came for me when I realized that I was not a man of God or a man of earth, but both. Though those two “me’s” did not seem to be the same, my lifelong quest has been to find out how to make the two “me’s” communicate and work as one.
Until I found out how to reconcile the two strands of my nature—the subjective spiritual, and the objective physical—I had always felt that I was out of place and that something was wrong with me. When I listened to the spiritual concepts that came from the mouths of masters, something in me hungrily responded in agreement. In the background there was that personal side of me that doubted I could ever fully live up to what I heard, and, frankly, I hadn’t seen any two-legged breathing creatures who lived it absolutely either. On one hand, I was more comfortable in a fundamentally hedonistic society that did not place me under a microscope of a spiritually judgmental morality. On the other hand, at those times when spiritual content was lacking, I felt the magic of life was missing because the divine center within me or others was not being revealed and experienced. Everywhere I went, I felt something was lacking in me until I had my vision of the double thread.
