Definitely the Portal to the Mystical Life of the Spirit!
Among the various Infinite Way books available, this volume
is probably the best entry point for the layman to the
subject of mysticism and the mystical life. From its pages
spring forth words of spiritual comfort, as the reader is
led gradually but definitely to the realization that he/she
is not meant nor doomed to suffer the travails and woes of
mere human existence. I remember that on the evening I
first read this book, I could not let go of it until I had
read it from beginning to end. It was almost daybreak when
I completed the book. By then, tears of joy were welling
and flowing freely, as I felt the deep sense of peace and
utter relief that came over me. From that moment on, I was
drawn to the mystical life where I have come to know the
"peace that surpasses all human understanding".

Undoubtedly the Key to Mastering the Spiritual Life!
The letters of truth contained in this volume of the Infinte
Way writings are truly so profound yet amazingly SIMPLE.
With the corresponding inner realization can one acquire the
necessary understanding to live by their precepts. And
whosoever learns to recognize and value the "pearls of great
prize" found within its pages and between its lines of text
is most assuredly on the way to spiritual mastery.

A Most Practical Guide to Spiritual Living
This book by Joel Goldsmith is very practical and straightforward in showing the reader how to bring the presence of God into daily life. As one reads and questions or thoughts arise, the answer or further explanation is not far behind. It is as if one were having a conversation with Joel in that moment. A must read

Don't read 100 good books - read one good book 100 times
This book literally fell off the shelf into my lap. Thank you God for hand delivering it to me. It has become "my bible". I don't know if I have read it 100 times yet, but as soon as I get to the end, I start again. The message is profound and yet simple to understand. So why do I keep reading it? To constantly keep my focus on "The Presence". I'll keep reading it till I "get it" - Christ Consciousness that is. Joel Goldsmith books are not available in Australia so imagine my delight when I discovered Amazon on the WWW. I am now reading The Infinite Way Letters 1955,56,57,58. which again makes me say "THANK YOU GOD"

Mystical Consciousness at Its Highest!
For an individual who has spent the past 25+ years of his life studying, practicing, living and now teaching the Infinite Way teachings of Joel Goldsmith, I have nothing but the highest commendation and praises for this particular new title from Acropolis Books. And there is no better way to express my feelings about it than by the SILENCE of the Spirit, just to be consistent with the kind of life Joel taught us -- one lived by grace, beyond human words and thoughts!

Great compilation on Spiritual Healing
This book is a "best of" compliation of Goldsmiths essays on Spiritual Healing. "Take no thought" is the attitude.

The Thunder Of Silence:
This was the book that introduced me to Joel S. Goldsmith. I have studied spiritualism, mysticism, yoga, etc, since 1972, yet I had never come across his name. After reading this book I knew I had finally found someone who could explain this world and the next in terms I could understand. The most amazing aspect is his assertion that every evil comes from our belief in two powers; good and bad. God looked at his creation and saw that it was good or perfect; God could not create bad or evil. He goes on to describe this world as a great hypnosis, or mass consciousness brought on by God giving us free will to create our own world, good or bad. To fully appreciate what he has to say, you must read this book, and his first book, "The Infinite Way". Read them both with an open heart and mind.
How can you speak?
This book changed my world forever. I have read all sorts of things after Goldsmith's books, but NOTHING ever surpasses the beauty and truth within his pages. His message is not for many, and most of the people I've lent the book to were unprepared for it. However, there are those of you who are destined to read his work and weep in the arms of his divine knowledge.
thunder of silence
joel's message leaves me speechless, having no words to adequately express how i feel. Words cannot be uttered. when i try to speak of the Infintie Way, i am stopped. It seems that all i have now are my tears. For those to whom joels' message is meant, you will understand. i can't say anymore.
The Infinite Way is the Christ teaching in its fullness.
Horizons of Consciousness: Joel S. Goldsmith's Correspondence With Lorraine Sinkler

Average review score:
Too bad this book was the source of teacher conflict.
Given that this book is not to be sold, but does exist all over the world, some words should be said about the principles of Joel Goldsmith. When asked what he would do if someone opened an Infinite Way office down the road from him, Joel replied, "nothing." If this message is truly governed by THE SPIRIT, IT will take care of any conflict.
This book was the cause of a lawsuit which is totally against spiritual principles. Judge teachers and students by their examples, by their fruits. Ultimately, we must seek the Truth within.
No one book or person is ever more important than the Spirit within us. To have let this book exist without conflict would have empowered each student and strengthened the principle of the omnipresence, omnipotence, and omniscience of God.
clearly the work of a devoted and sincere student
What a wonderful story of the opening of a soul to God Consciousness. One can feel the many steps that are taken along the path, some joyous others painful, but always revealed in an open and understanding way. I heard my own student experience in Ms. Sinklers letters. How grateful I am that she revealed her journey for anyone to share with her. Those who earnestly study Joel's message know what a premium he put on Ms. Sinkler's contribution, and how united they were as author and editor for the most important revelation of the path to God Awareness and Contact in this era.
A beautiful journey into the Path
The author is one of the most devoted students of the message of the Infinite Way. The editor of all Joel's books for over twenty five years, Loraine Sinkler shares the journey from sense to Soul in a clear and concise way. Joel raised up five teachers of. Ms. Sinkler was one of them. If one truly desires to experience Joel's awareness of the Infinite, this book describes the struggle of one of his finest students and any one on this path will identify with her experience. Joel never gave anyone directions to organize or "protect" or to copyright his material. Those who seek will find the true Teacher,and be led to those devoted students Joel himself raised up as the transparency for the Infinite Way principles. The current individual in Arizona was never picked by Joel to teach anyone anything.

A new addition to the library of mysticism
An expansion upon the previously published material of Infinite Way. Full of insight and practical pointers on the Way.
A profound addition for any serious student's library.
This collection of Joel's final talks in Hawaii is beautifully presented. Joel's talks have been published in their original, unedited form, and students of The Infinite Way® will respond to the consciousness immediately. Shortly after delivering this part of the message, Joel began his last trip to Europe. These talks were never recorded. Until recently, they were only available from student to student. It is important reading for any serious student of this message.

In this title, Joel instructs us how we can live by Spirit's grace. By maintaining a consciousness steeped in Truth in contemplating the letter of Truth and in silent meditation, one is brought into the fourth dimensional realm of the Spirit. When life is lived daily in the consciousness of God's presence, one permits the activity of grace in consciousness. This translates in the human experience as our perfect good that comes to us without the difficulties and anxieties typical of the human condition.
The book is highly recommended to anyone aspiring to live a life by grace in the presence of God!
