Romancing the Soul

About the Book

Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen! Thank you for the opportunity to introduce my book, Romancing the Soul to you!

My name is Walter Cloud or Mr. Cloud, but you can call me Walter.

It has been said that the motivational source of most great literary works have sprung from the deep suffering and an inner pain of the writer who has been moved by compassion to try and do or leave something behind that will be of benefit in the lives of their fellow beings. This book, Romancing the Soul, is no different.

I am a seasoned teacher and ever-a student as well, of an ancient infallible science of devotion that leads unfailingly to a greater state of self, and God realization.

This book is a synopsis of that post-graduate study of the physical and religious practices that will assist you in developing the skills of associating with God, and the Godly. That will preeminently eradicate the inherent limiting base animalistic weaknesses of the evil darkness of doubt, fear, anger, ignorance from within one's own being.

And plant the seeds of a faith that develop into an energetic creeper of everlasting devotion to God, in one's own heart, mind lifestyle and being.

A faith derived from direct perception in the supreme dominion and eternal authority of God, in one's own heart, mind, lifestyle and being.

A faith derived from direct perception in the supreme dominion and eternal authority of God, and the divine energies of God over the temporary base energies of nature.

In fact, upon closer and more honest observation, we realize that the very nature of all materials things, and energies in impermanent, ever changing and impersonal, whereas just the opposite is true with things and energies that are of the nature of divinity.

We all have heard the energies of divinity described as the same today, yesterday and tomorrow.

Furthermore, it can be said that because divine energies are eternal, unchanging and have their foundation in God - they are no only conscious energies, full of God's enhanced/complete awareness, but we may also safely assume and directly perceive that they are personal, intimate, ever-loving and purifying energies. Therefore, they are superior to, and more beneficial for us, than any and all of the temporary mundane energies that have the impersonal material nature as their origins!

You will instantly recognize as well that spiritual or divine energies have a purifying and calming effect on your heart, and in your mind. Just the opposite is true with material energies, however. The more we feel that we need to have this or experience that in order to become or remain happy, the more confused your mind becomes and addicted your body becomes to activities that are other-than-those prescribed for developing inner peace.

Indeed the need for more and more material works and possessions becomes necessary to sustain that energetic rush or the so-called satisfying glee of the particular social status, of having these temporary mundane possessions and or experiences.

Thus our mind becomes what is known in spiritual circles as contaminated, i.e. we become vulnerable to the weaknesses within the material energies of the animal's nature, and distracted from our real mission in life, which is the quest of developing a consciousness and a life-style that is in harmony with, and ever-privy-to the karma cleansing protection or .ie. the shelter of God's divine energetic presence and support or the positive disposition of His eternal conscious awareness. Why is the consistency or our devotion to the state of energetic connection with God so important? Because when you experience something directly through your own perception, it has a more lasting effect on you, it takes faith to the next level in you.

Direct experience takes faith from the sentimental stage of simply liking the sound of something after hearing about it from someone else, to an intimate understanding of it for yourself as a personal realization.

Quite simply and in short a sentimental faith can be shaken but a personal realization cannot!

Development of eternal faith is actually only realizing the truth as it already is. It is accomplished through the constant dedication in complete consummation to services and thoughts in devotion to ones communion with God. And as a result enlightenment is achieved or i.e. the personal realization of God's eternal position of complete awareness, supreme dominion, and innate loving nature of goodness, this state of being is undoubtedly superior to the quality and strength of faith of a being who is merely possessing enthusiasm for life itself. Or instinctively suspects the extraordinary potential of this particular physical life form, but has no knowledge of the art of devotion. "Faith without works" is weak.

It's a natural fact that the pleasure, power, benefits or value of God's association i.e. His conscious energetic presence in our lives is simply and ultimately more valuable, creative and pleasurable than any temporary mundane experiences that anyone of us can or will ever be able to conjure i.e. it is not an artificial imposition on God to be superior to His creation. It is a natural fact.

I heard it put nicely once by a preacher who said, "When a light is turned on in a room there is no incidence of a struggle in the center of the room between the light and the darkness. In the same way there is in reality no comparison between the energies of God's goodness and awareness, within one's being, and the darkness of ignorance in nature." Because the accomplishments achieved by the thoughtful soul who is aspiring to sustain an ongoing relationship with God will naturally result in a closer, and even a loving connection with God, who exists in the heart of everyone, and everywhere, all at once. With His proactive energetic awareness. In comparison to those who exist solely for the personal self's ego gratification, and suffer the unbalanced inconsistent emotional results of physical over-indulgence, and social alienation as a result of their extreme material egotistic ambitions.

Erego the message and content of the extraordinarily spiritualized workbook entitled Romancing the Soul. Which is an advanced study course of detailed instruction describing the bonefide methods and superior reasoning, as well as results achieved by those who choose the personal-intimate path of simple living, and high thinking, over those who chose to live a life of high times and base thinking.

I thank you for your time and attention and hope you will review and deeply consider reading this unique book, which makes evident the very real correlation between your physical energies and activities and your divine awareness. And the importance of God's presence in our daily lives, our destinations, and experiences, as well as the quality of your material rewards while still in this life form.

The following is a synopsis of the content of my book, which are all tools for developing and maintaining a synergetic and harmonious connection with the ever-loving Super Soul the supremely superb personality God.

The significance of this is easily understood as one realizes that developing one's own faith into a state of personal realization is truly the highest, and best use of the unique human life form and it's faculties. Faith-fullness is, as well all know, the greatest of all Karmic Coups!

About the Author

Hello Everyone!

My name is Walter Cloud. I'm 6'7" tall, my weight is 230 lbs. I was born in 1953 in the state of Michigan, USA.

My ancestors are of American Indian, Scottish, and African descent.

I enjoy studying real estate, construction, real estate law, and all the religions of the world.

I have attended several colleges namely Xavier U., Robert Morris U., and Langston U. as a physical education major. This culminated in the publishing of the book Romancing the Soul. This book is a focus on the complete health of your entire being — a holistic study of living from the inside out. It was created to help you produce dramatic results in your life that you can see, and feel, immediately!

I have two more books planned:

• The Glory of the Holy Names of God — which is a synopsis drawn from the scriptures of the world concerning this subject.
  
• The Family of Man — a novel depicting the interconnected relationship between all living intuits, under God and under the eternal law of nature Karma.

As you can see, I am very curious about the dynamics of interconnectedness of the good health of the living being and our personal progress on all levels of our life while in this life and in our future.

This is my life's work because I believe that it's importance is being underestimated and under emphasized in the world today.

Ironically however, the foundation/root of all successes or our potentials for success. It is being neglected in all religious, and social cultures of the world today. I contend that understanding the correlation of and the harmonious balance between our physical and the metaphysical aspects of our being, and our creation is the primary goal of this creation , and this life. Without which personal fulfillment nor true success is possible!
