Download or read book Star Children written by Georg Kühlewind and published by Temple Lodge Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "While working on this book the following happened to me: As I checked in at the airport in Hamburg a young couple was in front of me, and the mother had a three-to-four-month old baby in her arms. All of a sudden, the baby turned round, looked me straight in the eye, and I was deeply shaken; for that was not the look of a baby but of a very self-aware adult, a wise one, and he appeared to see right through me" (Georg Kühlewind). Who are the star children? In recent years, much has been written about "gifted" children with special abilities, sometimes called "indigo children" or "crystal children." It is said that these children are coming to earth to help humanity in its development. Based on extensive research, Georg Kühlewind confirms that this new generation has been incarnating among us for the past couple of decades. This event, he states, is one of the most important of our age. Unlike many other contributors to this discussion, Kühlewind gives us the necessary background to follow experientially what he has to say. He takes us consciously and scientifically into the realm from which we all enter the world as babies, "trailing clouds of glory." We all possess the tools he describes for taking this path: our thoughts, our heart forces, and our willpower. By using these faculties with full attention--by focusing our attentiveness and eliminating everything else--we can enter the realm of the spirit where the prevailing laws are different from those on Earth. The author helps us by closing each chapter with themes for contemplation and meditation. Star Children is a compelling addition to the literature on the theme of "special children," offering a unique perspective based on Spiritual Science and research.

Download or read book The Secret Life of Kids written by James W. Peterson and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2000-10-29 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It all began when James Peterson was a camp counselor and two children, watching him meditate, described the colors they saw around his form: “…we saw colors coming out of his stomach. And the outside was purple, then it was blue, then it was yellow, then reddish and light yellow in the middle.” Studies indicate that almost seven percent of young children have such psychic experiences. For the most part, they don’t tell anybody about them for fear of being ridiculed. But the author believes it would be psychologically healthy for them to relate such occurrences to adults if they feel the need. In this book Peterson has put together a charming collection of case-histories about such psychic episodes. He believes they should be accepted as factual: that frequently they emanate from the “wisdom of innocence” present in youngsters. The question of the secret life of kids is examined by Peterson from the point of view of philosophy, occultism, and child psychology. He suggests why and how such experiences manifest, and their potential value to the child’s growth pattern.
