The Hidden Gospel: Decoding the Spiritual Message of the Aramaic Jesus

I am really grateful to Neil Douglas Klotz to have written this book because his translation based on his heart felt mystical point of view allowed me to reconcile myself to Jesus and his teaching. (I was an altar boy who left the catholic church as a teenager). His interpretation shows to the mystic that Jesus teaching is similar in content to all the great teachings of all the great spiritual traditions. The emphasis is on experiencing and manifesting the qualities of being in the spirit of love, harmony and beauty.

After reading this book once, I find myself going back to it almost daily just to feed my soul with the richness of the translation of someone (Jesus) speaking the Truth about what is available for every human being...the Kingdom of God...that is inherant in our being if we only seek it out! You cannot go wrong with this book as it will open the door even wider for you to experience the "Sacred Unity" that the author describes.

This is a fascinating and liberating way of looking into the message of Jesus. Using the middle eastern mindset and historical(Aramaic)perspective, Neil Douglas-Klotz puts forth fresh concepts concerning spirituality. Readers who approach this book as a 'New Age' threat to tradtional Christianity will only shortchange themselves. Anyone truly hungry for spiritual insights will find this book rewarding.
