Michael Bernard Beckwith — the dynamic spiritual leader who touched millions of readers and viewers in The Secret and through the spiritual community he founded, the Agape International Spiritual Center — is now sharing his transforming central message and his powerfully accessible means for embodying that message in daily life, a process he calls “aspiring toward spiritual liberation.”
Michael Beckwith teaches that inner spiritual work, not religiosity or dogma, liberates us. He draws on a wide spectrum of ancient wisdom teachers such as Jesus the Christ and Gautama the Buddha; contemporary spiritual luminaries Thich Nhat Hanh, Sri Aurobindo, and the Dalai Lama; and Western contributors to the New Thought tradition of spirituality such as Emanuel Swedenborg, Walter Russell, and Dr. Howard Thurman to create a profound new belief synthesis.
Either read silently or aloud, Spiritual Liberation can be included during meditation or prayer. Each chapter includes an affirmation that distills its core concepts into a sentence or two for the reader to easily practice throughout the day. Beckwith’s personal and touching accounts guide the practitioner to integrate and activate the intrinsic gifts of divinity into everyday life.
The core concepts of Beckwith’s teachings are cohesively conceived and convincingly stated in the provocative chapters of Spiritual Liberation. Topics covering “Evolved People,” “Transportation to Trans-formation,” “Transcending the Tyranny of Trends,” and “Inner Ecology” are some of his foundational teachings that bring together insights from a range of spiritual paths to form a coherent practice that is neither Eastern nor Western but truly spiritually global.
Regardless of their belief system, readers will find it impossible to finish this book without at least a few “Aha!” moments.

Spiritual Liberation Spiritual Liberation provides clear and concise information that taught me how to mature beyond my human understanding of growth. In simple but powerful terms, Beckwith addressed the challenges I have experienced while aspiring to live a spirit driven life. In addition to pinpointing these challenges, Beckwith prescribes specific actions I would need to take in order to change or transform these challenges or both. Bringing his uniqueness to the pages of the book, Beckwith coins new words (bliss-cipline and play-volution) that simultaneously communicate his message while vividly revealing ones spiritual mission.The value I have received from this book is priceless. The affirmations at the end of each chapter are powerful and easy to remember so I can recite them throughout the day. Beckwith’s distinctions were clear and understandable so I was able to process the information right away. I know the results I will produce as a result of this book will be nothing less than…
This is the next textbook on spiritual principle I have read Tolle, Ernest Holmes, Troward, Emma Curtis Hopkins, Joel Goldsmith, Howard Thurman, OSHO, the bible, Lao Tzu, the Gita, Pema Chodron, Robert Thurman, Course in Miracles, + .This book is THE NEW TEXTBOOK on spiritual principle written in today’s vernacular to the NOW consciousness that has awakened through out the planet. Spiritual principle doesn’t change, Michael is writing about ancient wisdom to today’s audience. The message is LOVE always, gently reminding us that it is our inner work that creates what we see in our “exterior life.” Different than Tolle in that Michael stays in absolute principle while giving very practical tools to use in spiritual practice. It’s like the Tao Te Ching and Confucius-ism combined!This book stands the test of time.
