These are times of widespread disharmony and escalating violence. Surface differences keep people apart and enduring peace on our planet seems like an impossible dream.We must act differently if change is to sweep over this world, for our leaders can only do what we allow them to do. Before change can take place throughout society, it must first be realised by the individual.The key to higher understanding lie within each of us. The Spirit Calls is an invitation to venture inwards to discover our true spiritual nature.For those who care to listen to the still voice of the spirit, a new way of living awaits.

A successful life today is measured by experience and achievement. Possessions and community status are ranked highly. Yet rarely does this guarantee happiness, contentment and interpersonal harmony. As a result there is a widespread yearning for a deeper understanding. We wonder about God, the purpose of life, destiny, free will, the future of the human race. Concern is growing that we will not learn the ways of peace and togetherness and create harmony in our relationships. The more sensitive among us fear we will continue to destroy our kind, the Earth and the other life forms that share this planet with us. Make Time for the Spiritual has a clear message for those seeking a deeper meaning to everyday living: Self- understanding is the key that improves behaviour and dissolves misconceptions.Transform from within if you want to change your outer experience of life.

We live in turbulent times. Nations warring with themselves and each other. Violent behaviour rife in society. Must we accept violence as an inevitable expression of human nature - or is it possible to enjoy lives lived in peace and harmony?Joseph delivers a message of hope: A peaceful world in every way can come about when we are truly peaceful people. But this state of harmonious living will not come about by changing laws or waging war. We must look inwards, not outwards, to solve the problems caused by our lack of love and understanding.Peace is Possible is a call to action: Change yourself if you want to change our world.

Living a spiritual life does not have to mean retreating from the everyday world to a place of solitude to devote every waking hour to quiet contemplation of the mystery of existence. Anyone can begin the search for a higher meaning to life while immersed in the many activities of daily living.Shift attention from the outer world and venture inwards to seek the source of what we are rather than what we believe ourselves to be, for true spirituality comes about from self-understanding. Transformation takes place when we discover our true nature and all it takes is an eager heart to start on a journey of self-discovery that will change your life from the inside out.

The dark side of human nature is being expressed worldwide in acts of violence and aggression.Only the clear understanding released by a dawning spirituality can direct humanity through the escalating situations that threaten to overwhelm us today.Divine Love waits...but the intellect must take the first steps to return to its source. Humanity cannot flourish if there is no awakening.As the intellect sows...so shall it reap.The intellect plays its finest role when it is the servant of an enlightened mind.

We are intelligent beings with the capacity to understand from moment to moment yet we remain a mystery to ourselves. Despite the knowledge explosion of the past century we seem incapable of living in peace and harmony.It is time for a new direction in learning, one that takes us beyond this surface life we live and explores the deepest levels of our nature.Awake to Clarity is a call to the serious spiritual seeker to direct attention from the outer to the inner world, for enlightenment can only be experienced when the true nature of the self is clearly seen.Right understanding arises from a wider and deeper perception and lights up the way to clearer, saner, enlightened living.
