Without the idea of death There is Only Life

The Book

I have been refining the book Without the idea of death: There is Only Life for more than a decade (closer to two decades) as it is truly an ongoing “work in progress”.

It was first published (but not distributed) in 2013 through Amazon Createspace under the title Without the Idea of Death (I believe only I have creator copies of this version), and then it was completely revised in 2017 after the discovery of the works of Walter and Lao Russell in late 2016.

Walter & Lao Russell’s Contribution

The discovery of the Russell Cosmogeny gave me a concrete, scientific vocabulary to disseminate the State of Illumination and the extrasensory perception that preceded it. This version was briefly available on Amazon in 2017, and then a further revision was self-published in 2019 through Balboa Press, and then unpublished again so I could revise it further. For several years, it was available on this website in free pdf., with updated copies provided as they were available. The latest revision is close to being offered again, in .pdf, on Kindle and in paperback and hardcopy. Copies of the 2019 Balboa Press version can occasionally be found for sale online by independent sellers. These copies have now become collector’s items, it seems.

ACIM’s Contribution

The book’s subtitle “There is Only Life” was added in the 2017 version with the discovery of the Russell Cosmogeny. Prior to the State, I was an avid reader of the ACIM and the initial title and “bones” of the book were gleaned from this quote:

Without the idea of death, there is no world. ~ ACIM

However, this title alone did not fully match the State of Illumination. Indeed, the world of form/effect did disappear into the qualities of Light, and yet, the world was not negated by its disappearance – it was wholly included. And so, when I discovered the Russell Cosmogeny, the subtitle was added, and this quote from The Message of the Divine Iliad (which is The Voice of God, speaking through Walter Russell), along with the Russellian science of Life imaging creation, balanced the sense of negation in the original title.

I am not life, nor am I death. From Me both spring, and through Me both flow both ways toward unity, first in My manifest Self and then in Me, yet I am not touched in both their passings.

I am the interchanging point of life and death. I balance life and death; and never in their changing can either death or life outbalance death or life.

Write thou that death and life are one, as the swinging pendulum is one, e’en though it oscillates two ways in its incessant swinging. ~ The Message of The Divine Iliad

SRT & RPR

The State of Knowing Eternal Life, the continuing revisions of the book (which is ultimately an exercise in recalling the State and “finding the words to describe it” – that I take great delight in) , and the Russell Cosmogeny as the scientific framework, wholly inform my work today with the development of Spiritualized Reality Therapy™ (SRT) and Rest Point Recovery™ (RPR).
