Eileen Caddy Boeken

A diary of inspirational and practical messages offered in the hope that they will help others find faith, fulfilment and inner peace.

The short meditations in this book were given to Eileen Caddy in times of silence, and were used by her over the years for the deepening of her own spirtual life, they are intended for daily use by those seeking to expand their awareness of the divine and to express it in their lives.

An extraordinary story told by an ordinary woman.Eileen Caddy (1917-2006) is known worldwide as one of the three founders of the Findhorn Foundation in the north of Scotland. The books that have flowed from her inspiration have drawn multitudes to the Findhorn Community. In the recent, expanded edition of her autobiography, Eileen updated her story to record the events--and emotions--of some fifteen years. She emerges as a powerful elderwoman who frees herself from the aura of her charismatic ex-husband Peter whom she still loves. In doing so, she learns the true nature of forgiveness, overcoming the issues of jealousy, hatred and doubt involved in the break-up of a marriage for which she had, under God's guidance, sacrificed everything. Readers will be struck by the analogy with the biblical Job, how someone who has lost everything, wealth, position, family, can yet have them restored by God. In her own person, Eileen Caddy, divinely ordinary as she describes herself, has pushed the limits of the ordinary person's experience to the very borders of the Kingdom of God.

(A revised edition of a book previously published under the title Choosing to Love)Is it possible for us to learn to love? Or do we just have to wait for it to happen?This book says ...-We are all born with the capacity to love ourselves and others-Many of us have built barriers within ourselves because of painful experiences we have had, and we have developed fears, beliefs and behaviour which keep our barriers in place-The primary lesson in life is to learn to love-We cannot love others freely and fully until we first love ourselves-Many of us do not love ourselves because of doubts we have about our own sense of worth-Learning to love requires an intention to change and a willingness to take action-Learning to love is learning how to work with our doubts and fears, how to change our beliefs and behaviour and learning how to take down our barriers to love.This book invites you to make a free and informed choice to bring more love into your life, and then helps you implement your choice in a step-by-step clear and confident way.

For over forty years the Findhorn Community has been a centre of demonstration and education for the spiritual realities that underlie the world of form. In particular Eileen Caddy, through her own spiritual path, has been instrumental in turning people within to seek their own divine essence and inner direction. The first part of this book provides glimpses into Eileen’s life and a taste of the dramatic spiritual lessons she underwent. The second part presents some of the guidance she received from the ‘God within’ during the early years of the community. When Eileen’s words are read quietly and receptively and, above all, when they are put to the only real test - that of action and practice - you discover to your surprise and perhaps exasperation that you are being invited to begin a new way of living. It is a way of life that not only challenges the materialism and selfishness of the world, but invigorates you with a new zest, as well as a deeper sense of purpose. Eileen Caddy was recognised as one of the major spiritual leaders of our time on the TV programme “The God List”.

Messages in this book affirm that there is an inherent wisdom and intelligence in everything, which can only be contacted by turning inside.

Eileen Caddy (1917-2006), co-founder of the Findhorn Foundation, received guidance from her God within for over 50 years.

The author of Opening Doors Within, which has sold over 500,000 copies worldwide in 16 different languages, has produced something completely new. Whereas all her previous books have been based on her guidance received in meditation over the past 40 years, this book is all Eileen the her wisdom and experience learned through hard knocks and struggles in her life. Eileen shares her perspectives on many of life's questions and challenges -- forgiveness, unconditional love, healing relationships, sexuality, children and The Christ amongst them. She also answers questions frequently asked by people seeking to find their spiritual path, and offers guided meditations to enable them to move into the stillness of their own being and find their own inner voice and guidance. Waves of Spirit will be like a breath of fresh air to all seekers in the spiritual path, particularly the confused and hopeless trying to make sense of life today. Eileen's simple faith and obedience to her inner voice has guided her life and inspired millions of other seekers; this book will doubtless continue her work well into the 21st century.

An insightful guide for consciously bringing compassion and love into your life
