John Jensen, a licensed psychologist, former Catholic priest, and educational consultant creates a spiritual psychology: How we change our thoughts and actions in order to develop a reciprocal relationship with Divine Spirit. As we align our consciousness with God's action in us, we place ourselves in reach of daily miracles. In Experiences with Spiritual Reality, traditional spirituality from "the science of the saints" joins with advances in the understanding of consciousness from New/Old Age religion and modern psychology. As a student of religions, John Jensen explains how to approach the presence of God and change one's life to align with God's encompassing activity.
He asks readers to understand why they want to pursue a spiritual life and then to engage consciously in a learning process about the nature of God and Soul. Grounding the process in direct experience offers a way to assess progress as it crosses slowly into the intangible. The book addresses from many angles the common difficulty of discerning what's real and true, and the importance of finding a personal spiritual guide to work with on the inner planes as well as outwardly. It explains the critical role of spiritual exercises and the essential daily discipline of withdrawing consciousness away from all forms of negativity -- moral, spiritual, emotional, and behavioral -- and redirecting it toward God.
