Publisher Description

If you could travel back to the world of ancient Palestine and hear Jesus teach in his own native tongue, what would you learn? Join Neil Douglas-Klotz, the brilliant translator and best selling author of Prayers of the Cosmos, as he delves into early New Testament scriptures written in Aramaic - the original language of Jesus and his followers. Overlooked for centuries by all but a small minority of the world's Christians, these sacred texts rejuvenate the teachings of Jesus with an original subtlety and richness of meaning found in no other translation. Douglas-Klotz draws us deeply into these passages of the Gospels - including the Beatitudes and the Lord's Prayer - and then adds to his passionate scholarship by teaching us a series of body-centered meditations for interpreting and reflecting on these sacred words in much the same way as the early Christians did. What lies hidden within these scriptures may surprise many: a visionary Christ who transcends the narrow and the dogmatic to offer us a grand cosmology based on the earthy wisdom of an ancient desert people.

"I'm absolutely in love with this book, not only its mystical message de-mystifying the nondual mystery, but also its author's idea of "experiencer response," of interpretation as spiritual play rather than academic pursuit, of poetic wordplay in Yeshua's teachings. So far, so "Wow"!"

    " I was not too wild about this book- it seemed too new age-y and the gospel was watered down. It simply did not speak to me in a voice I recognized as divine. "

    " Mr. Douglas-Klotz translates the prayers and words of Jesus from the original Aramaic into english. It show a much more beautiful meaning than the King James version "

    " An interesting exploration of the 99 names of God and the pathways toward greater spiritual awakening that each name represents. Includes an etymological origin of each name as well as Sufi stories that illustrate the essence of the characteristics embodied in each name. "
