Ramtha [B1781]

1986 HCDJ in nice clean condition. Philosophy/Ancient Wisdom/Enlightenment/Ramtha the Enlightened One, as channeled by JZ Knight (Yelm, Washington). Per Wikipedia: Judy "Zebra" (aka JZ) Knight (born Judith Darlene Hampton; March 16, 1946) is an American spiritual teacher and author known for her purported channeling of a spiritual entity named Ramtha. Critics consider her to be a cult leader. Knight claims to bridge ancient wisdom and the "power of consciousness" with modern science. Some of the ideas are similar to those of Shirley MacLaine, which were criticized for being "kindergarten metaphysics" by mathematician and skeptic Martin Gardner. In her book Dancing in the Light, MacLaine claimed that she was the brother of Ramtha in their Atlantean past lives. Ramtha's teachings have been criticized by scientists and skeptics. The Southern Poverty Law Center has criticized Knight for "homophobic, anti-Catholic, anti-Semitic racist rants". Knight lives in a 12,800-square-foot French chateau-style home in Yelm, Washington where she teaches courses, and runs Ramtha's School of Enlightenment.

From MIXED Amazon/GoodReads reviews: "Anything by Ramtha written by JZ Knight is fantastic! Excellent information."; "You all realize this is the book of a cult, right? I just want to make sure. Because the number of 5 star reviews is shocking. This is a book written by a greedy ex-soap opera star who, when drunk on wine, pretends to channel a 30,000 year old warrior god. And that warrior god supposedly wrote this book. I just wanted to make sure that's out there on the table. Before anybody falls for any funny business and/or plans to move to Yelm, WA, the town that ex-soap opera star owns. See, I am fascinated by cults and I like reading the literature because it's so curious to me. But I can do that because my will is strong and I know I will not fall prey to anything cult related. If your will is not as strong, if you're lonely or forlorn or grasping for anything to keep you afloat then maybe you should avoid reading books written by cult leaders. Because this cult still exists and it could pull you in and take all your money and leave you with less than what you started with. Alright? Glad we cleared that up! K, bye!"; "I stumbled upon this book in a spare classroom when I was in college and just decided to read it. I've never fully embraced any one faith or another and had lots of doubts regarding religion. This echoed a lot of the questions I was already asking and I found some of the viewpoints very intriguing. I didn't fall in with it 100% or anything, but it gave an interesting counterpoint. I dealt with it like any philosophy book I would read...digest and use what I can. Still, this was one of those turning point books - not for anything in particular that I read in it, but seeing that it existed at all."
