Oneness

Recently I shared with someone I value and respect about how Rasha's book is being such a great resource at this stage of my spiritual journey. In response, my friend suggested I write a review here, since so very many of us these days are feeling compelled to go inward to make some kind of sense of being alive in this increasingly crazy reality we ruefully claim as our world. My first thought was that my journey with the book "Oneness" has been so profoundly personal, and largely so difficult to put into language, that I wasn't at all sure my take on it would offer any valuable addition to the public conversation. Others' experience of a text or a process is just right for them, is my deep conviction, and certainly needs no contribution from me; and my experience of the material may not have anything to do with anyone else's, I reasoned.But after gathering my thoughts about what it's meant to me, I've come here to offer one consciousness-explorer's individual perspective, and say that since opening Rasha's book two years ago this inner journey of Consciousness I'm compelled to walk has truly transformed. "Oneness" has been a wonderfully rich treasure for my journey, which actually began about 35 years ago; so I'm no novice, yet integrating and beginning to incrementally live what I take to be the message in this book has felt like a new birth. I've read many wonderful books over the decades, several of them really perfect for that moment on my path. And like another reviewer here has said, I'd reached a point where I had very little interest at all in reading another spirituality book, and was content to cherish a short shelf of previous books that had been pivotal one way or another while I allowed my evolution to find its own quiet course. But then I came across "Oneness", and it has turned out to be an exquisitely timed resource that is beyond all others, and literally beyond measuring.I happened across (was guided to intersect with?) this book, as I said, about 2 or so years ago. I'm now on my 5th read-through. Yes, it's taken me 2 years to read it through 4 times, since I generally read a short bit at night before sleep (many times rereading the same thing over and over again until it finds a way to bypass my linear brain and go deep), taking my time to allow the frequencies to sink in, and to allow the boundaries I've long held in place to soften and let the possibilities the text stimulates absorb. And as I close the cover, and my eyes, I often set an intention that the alchemy the reading initiates will bubble and cook deep down inside, through the night, and intentionally inform my dreams. And it always does one way or another; so much so that for a long while now my dreaming and waking are often on a continuous, fertile wavelength.I have to report that the recent two years of my path of Inner Alchemy has been the most astonishing and deepening, and astonishing and deepening of my long trajectory of inner spiritual inquiry; and the information and wholeness, and spaciousness and waking wonder that Rasha and her informants are assisting me to uncover from my core feel truly beyond the language of assessment. In fact, one of the things I so value about this text is that there seems to be a vast store of information transmitted literally between the lines; vastly more than is actually framed in the sentences; I have rarely come across such a resource.When I first read through the book I soon noticed, as others have observed here, that there seemed to be a lot of repetition, and spiral reasoning, and going over again what had been presented before. But....I suspected from the start that this style of writing and arrangement of the printed words was not the main event of the experience of reading this one, and by nature and long practice I was already attuned to absorbing the message with my unconscious and my deliberate body-consciousness. So I didn't feel the need to satisfy the conscious mind's protective, controlling requirement for familiar, comfortable, transactional form. This approach to the material has been key, and I've been content to let the information that's being transmitted bypass my objecting ego and flow into me along non-linear channels, and from there undergo the reliable test of true Knowing. And like the rich symbols of a particularly significant dream which, on repeated inquiry, reveal successively transforming symbolic self-knowledge, this text keeps revealing new depths with each successive read-through.I also want to say that my consciousness/ascension, at least in the way I'm able to conceive of and perceive it from the evolving perspective of being human, is blowing away my previous experience and expectations, with the caring and potent guidance of the Source that calls itself Oneness as it speaks in this book, in conversation with the Source speaking from my own core (as much as I'm increasingly, if slowly, able to own it). After many years of sincere spiritual inquiry and much labor and sometimes disheartening struggle in the past, I'm now often astonished to sense my inner expansion and outer relationship with the porous nature of our collective reality enlarging and quickening, and proceeding apace; yes, apace and so much more. It's being truly a joy to be alive and attentive, and non-reactive emotionally.One last thing: The wonderful thing about "Oneness" is that it decidedly is not another holy scripture; not a how-to, not the correcting voice of an Other that is "more-than"; but instead it's a compelling guidance; a supportive companionable presence that has the potential, in perfect accord with the seeker's readiness and willingness, to encourage the opening of a portal onto the reader's own native, poised momentum for expansion and joy.

This book will either take you by the hand and lead you to an entirely new understanding of your life, or it will leave you cold. I don't think there is anything in-between. I've read this book a dozen times and each time I get a new--sometimes expanded, sometimes entirely different--understanding of the concepts being presented, along with an expanded perspective of the world, the universe, and myself. It's an astonishing experience that never ceases to amaze me.I'm a teacher of metaphysical awareness and have been devouring spiritual texts and working with energy for well over 50 years; long before it was "cool" to admit that you could talk to dead people. I was born clairvoyant, fully touch-empathic, and clairsentient, with a disturbing level of past-life recall, so my world view and perspective of "reality" has always been dramatically off of the beaten path. I studied psychology for 15+ years, purely for the joy of it. It's hard to surprise me, and harder still to offer me a view of life more outside of the norm than the one I already hold. But this text offers me a new, expanded perspective with every iteration.It has to have been divinely inspired; I can think of no other explanation for the way a single paragraph, read and re-read over successive days, can suggest different avenues of thought simply by my shifting the emphasis given to a single word as I read. There is no way to lift a phrase or quote to explain its potency; in an organic, wholistic sort of way, each concept fuels the next. I began to highlight favorite passages, but my students were soon laughing because the entire book is striped in different shades of yellow and pink. (I think I'll use blue with the next reading, for variety.)I'm a voracious reader who started reading significant works of literature early in life (I read the Lord of the Rings trilogy at 6 years old); but after six decades of life, this may be THE most noteworthy book I've ever had the pleasure to be given. I bless the friend who sent it to me daily, and joke that he hasn't got a chance of topping it.Definitely give it a shot. You'll know immediately whether it's speaking to YOUR soul.

When I spotted this book at Barnes & Noble and took a glance through it out of curiosity, I didn't expect THAT to be a life changing moment! But it was. The book looked interesting, and having read the Seth books and the Hicks books as well as the Sanaya Romane books, I decided to order this on Amazon, though I thought it would be more information about the same as the other books (all of which are very good, by the way!).When I started reading this book, I was struck by the personal way in which it was written. It spoke directly to me, it described stages of my life I had been through and am going through. I almost expected to see my name inserted among the pages, it spoke so directly to me! But as I was reading this book, everything in life began to make sense to me. It was like I was standing above myself and looking down at my life with detachment and objectivity. I could start to see how all of life fits together. It's all energy. Something started to click for me. I had wondered how shamans claim that they go to underworlds and experience levels of reality the rest of us cannot fathom, and yet others are reiki Masters and move energy through them for healing purposes, and yet others still practice wicca and with ritual bring about the changes in their lives that they desire, etc. How could all these people be right about what they do? How could all these things exist at once and each of these methods work to bring about change? Well, it's because it's all movement of energy and desire. With driven intent anything can be brought about into manifestation. Ahhh ha! Now I get it!If you liked "The Secret", well then this is the next level. It's about more than the Law of Attraction. It's about changing the world by changing the way you think, the way you feel, and the way you react to situations as they pop up in your life.My highest recommendation to you is to read this book. It speaks with clarity and a deep rooted truth you can feel in your entire being as you read the words written. It will change the way you see your life and the world around you. It's simply the most amazing book I have ever had the honor to read.

I have been on my spiritual journey since last 10 years. 3 years back, I was just sitting and contemplating about a mystical experience that I had where I felt so much love and bliss. I was trying to define my experience and as i was thinking, the word ONENESS popped in my consciousness. I understood I experienced oneness. I looked up on google to see if there was anything on this topic .. and this book showed up. I was eager to read it and tried to search on Youtube if there was any audiobook available. A video with compilation of quotes from this book showed up and as I started viewing this video, I started feeling immense love and felt like everything around me came to a standstill. It was a mystical experience and I knew I had to order a physical copy.As I started reading the book, the text was too heavy and would put me off to sleep. I left this book thinking it was a mistake. After couple of months, I again tried to get back to this book with a new strategy. Every night I would open up a new chapter and read a little by little.To my surprise, the book started talking back to me. Each phrase would be like it was customized for me.. talking directly to my personal experiences. I would take long pauses, go into. meditative state in contemplation and would often get blissed out reading this book.I feel as if this book was written by my future self to educate my present self.So grateful to Rasha for bringing this book to the world.

I have a little problem with channeled books: none of their claims have to be backed up with any kind of evidence. Simply because they come from an other-worldly voice, the audience is supposed to accept their claims as fact. There is a danger in such blind faith. (Recall two other people who channeled -- David Koresh and Jim Jones.) Teachings that are derived from channeling are different from say those of the Buddha. The Buddha based his teachings on personal experience and observations and encouraged others to verify his teachings for themselves through their own experience. Also, he was careful to explain his teachings based on steps of reasoning. This book, as well as the two other channeled books I have read, do little of that.With that said, I did greatly value this book for the inspiration it imparted. It really helped me to think outside the box in imagining the great possibilities of our spiritual evolution. One very specific thing that spoke to me was the author's assertion that we can use our ego trigger issues as a means to pull us out of the vortex of painful repeating occurrences. I am familiar with this concept, however, the author did a very good job of driving it home, so much so that I am actually looking at a conflict I am having at the moment as an opportunity to raise my energy to a higher frequency simply by letting it go. In the past, I would not have been able to do this very well, but now, I feel that I can override my ego because of the image of myself this book has painted if I do. It doesn't matter to me if Oneness is completely accurate in all its assertions; it is enough for me that it sparks my imagination of what I can become.

I have read this volume and most of the comment thread contained here. I tend to agree in part with a lot of the comments made here. This is not an easily read book.In my 25 years or so of active spiritual seeking, I have read hundreds of books. Each offered me something that I needed along my path. There came a time tho when I swore off most books and just keep a select few close to me. These choice volumes and a whole lot of silent meditation became my teacher. I think what a lot of people come to (as I know I did) is the place of trying to understand what is "going on" for them spiritually and how this understanding is playing out for them "experientially" This particular volume does offer some insights one might use to explore the answers. I think the book is written in a somewhat rambling style - akin to someone transcribing a spoken teaching. Sentence run-ons are no less challenging when the subject is Oneness.To me, the method to Oneness is simple...it's what we ourselves will allow. Just as one would do in any significant relationship, one has to make oneself available and open to deepening the bond. The One is already there...we are the ones that open the door and allow. In my experience(s) the voice of the Divine when it makes itself known is clear and succinct; there is no need to go over it many times.

Aloha - for those reviewing I feel obligated to summarize my own personal feelings about the messages contained in Oneness. I have read and am very open minded to many varying levels of consciousness. This book has a way of relating to almost an exact circumstance or theme you are currently experiencing in life.Just tonight, I picked it up and randomly chose a chapter as I felt that would provide the insight I was searching for. Sure enough, Chapter Eighteen spoke to me in a way far beyond knowledge, but better described as wisdom. In my opinion, there is a vast difference. Knowledge can be acquired, while wisdom is only attained through experiencing. My uncle uses an analogy of an orange to explain. "I can tell you every intricate detail there is to know about an orange. I can describe how it tastes, smells, feels, looks....the texture, color, etc. Afterwards, you might walk away feeling like an expert on what an orange is. However, to truly know what an orange really IS you must try one and experience it for your-self."To me, this is the context Oneness provides to the reader. Its messages allow you to best-relate your current experiences with an added level of comprehension. As with any review, mine is bias based on my own individual experience and conscious filter. However, it is with positive love, light, and gratitude I endorse this gift to you All. I am honored and grateful that Rasha trusted her intuition to transcribe these messages us to learn and grow from.Namaste,Matt

This is a book of deep spiritual wisdom. Spirituality is my favorite subject, and I believe this book is the best one on my book list.It's deceptively straight-forward and easy to digest, but it's also the type of book where I can read a passage over and over getting a deeper understanding each time.This book both, lays groundwork for future spiritual progress, and helps integrate your past experiences.If you like any of the books below, you will like Oneness:- Communion with God, by Neale Donald Walsch- Oneness, by John Greven- A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life's Purpose (Oprah's Book Club, Selection 61), by Eckhart Tolle- The Disappearance of the Universe: Straight Talk About Illusions, Past Lives, Religion, Sex, Politics, and the Miracles of Forgiveness, by Gary R.

Achei que por vezes a tonalidade da canalização se aproxima do "olha eu tô te avisando, se você não...", o que eu penso que é algo muito humano e descredita um pouco a obra. A canalização também é fria e impessoal, escrita de um jeito esquisito (distante e sem compaixão), o que eu pessoalmente não gosto em obras de espiritualidade. Fora isso, tem boas informações. Não é um livro que você lê continuamente, parece ser um livro que você consulta de quando em quando na vida de acordo com o seu momento.

I absolutely loved reading this book. It was very uplifting and full of information that resonated with me. Very much of the information is stuff I already knew and I have a background of understandings that gave me a base to understand this book in the best way for me. Without my background it might have been more difficult, and it may be also different for someone else. Everyone is different and coming from a different place of understanding. This book is written in beautiful words and phrasing like a work of art, but at the same time it is still possible to easily understand and read. The aesthetic writing along with the uplifting and inspiring contents, along with a yummy cup of coffee in the morning was just a transcending experience!

This book contains very deep teachings, but it may result difficult to absorb and understand if you are a beginner in your spiritual path. I think this is the reason for such a low number of reviews (and probably readers). I would put the teachings and reflections of this book at a level higher than The Power of Now of Eckart Tolle. I love Tolle's book, but this is the next step.

This book is well worth reading. I have read it twice and will probably read it again. It is very helpful in spiritual development. Yes
