The Sunday Lectures, Vol.II - Peter Deunov

Descriere The Sunday Lectures, Vol.II - Peter Deunov

\n \nThe lectures in this volume are a continuation of Peter Deunov's lecture series, Power and Life, which were delivered every Sunday from the year 1914 until his departure in 1944. Although he examines Biblical verses from both the New and Old Testaments, Deunov's primary focus is on the words of Christ as they relate to mankind in today's modern world. Some of the topics in this volume include: understanding and differentiating the essential from the transient; the difference between the Holy Spirit and the evil one; how to interpret suffering as a blessing; the profound meaning of birth; the true function of the brain as a conduit of Divine thought; the vastness of the human soul; the existence of Divine laws that regulate phenomena; the interconnectedness between truth and reconciliation; the importance of compassion in one's spiritual and moral development; the interrelationship between thoughts and feelings as they relate to dimensions leading to God.\n \n \n\n \nPeter Deunov delivered these lectures at the onset of the first World War. In fact, the first lecture begins right after Bulgaria made a formal alliance with the Central Powers and declared war on Serbia. One of the most notable aspects in the lectures are the words of Christ and their meaning in relation to us. The lectures also feature an amalgam of folk tales, historical anecdotes, and even songs which relate certain proverbial truths that encapsulate not only the Balkan mentality of the time, but also explore the human condition. They were held in a time of great tribulation but alas, as Deunov points out, the difficulties only serve as conditions for our development, yet the lessons gleaned from the trials yield knowledge for all eternity. \n
