The Beginning Is Near - New Perspectives on Life
THIS IS A REVISED EDITION OF "Ten Great Ways to Understand the World -
The Larger Perspective on the Leading Edge of Thought
ISBN: ISBN-10: 1523724048ISBN-13: 978-1523724048
“The Beginning Is Near” invites the reader to view life from a new perspective where the present state of the world is seen as a preparation for better and more harmonious times to come. Based on the fascinating revelations of Martinus, the Danish 20th century visionary, the book exposes that we are on our way towards a peaceful and amiable coexistence where mutual respect, love and understanding will be predominant. The book argues that our development will inevitable take us to a world where there will be no more war, terrorism, social injustice or poverty. This change will come about as a result of our reaping of experience over many incarnations. As we live life after life our humanitarianism grows, and we will become better and better at expressing universal love, thus creating a beautiful place to live for all living beings. The book is full of optimism and reveals the logic of the present state of the world. In ten short chapters, it points towards a much brighter future, where a spiritual outlook on life and the idea of reincarnation will be central to our understanding of existence.

The Downfall of Marriage - The Great Transformation of our Sexual and Marital Relations
Do you have marital problems?
Do you find it difficult to live in harmony in marriage?
Have you never married?
Do you think there is something wrong with you for being single or divorced?
If your answer is yes, then this book is for you. It reveals the real reason for our relationship problems.
There is nothing wrong with you.
The reason is an organic / sexual / mental / emotional change that is happening to all human beings as we evolve. Today we are simply not as suitable for marriage as we were in the past.
It is time we realize that our sexual pole transformation is recreating us to becoming whole, independent and freedom seeking individuals with a corresponding lesser ability to live in relationships.
This book explains the reason for our degenerating ability to live in marriage. It is a helping hand to all those who are confused, insecure and depressed about why their marriages are not working. The book is based on Martinus´ clear, logical and intelligent analysis of the transformation of our sexual poles on our way to becoming real, all-loving human beings.

The Undiscovered Country
A Non-religious Look at Life After Death
ISBN-13: 978-1453608821
Do we only live once, or is there life after death? Today the one-life theory is predominant, but it has never been proved, so it is really "just" a belief. This book presents the evidence from the latest research into the question of post-mortem survival and concludes that life does not end when we have drawn our last breath - there is much more to come, and this life is not the only one we have lived and will live. Our consciousness survives the death of the physical body and we continue life in a different form on "the other side". This book explains the how and why in a completely new and non-religious way based on the groundbreaking spiritual science of the Danish visionary Martinus. When you have read this book you will have a completely new perspective on death. This is indeed the end of the one-life theory.


Reincarnation in a Nutshell - Why reincarnation is Real
Would it not be wonderful if we did not only live one life? Would it not be great to know that death was an illusion and that we lived on after our physical body had stopped functioning? If we could know that death was not the end of life, would that not make us much less worried or afraid, make us much more confident and happier? If we could simply with one stroke eliminate all fear of death, would that not give our lives a whole new meaning and perspective? This is what this book offers the reader.
Reincarnation in a Nutshell explains why reincarnation is much more than a belief. With mathematical precision the authors explain why reincarnation simply has to be factual and they present the reasoning, the logic and the evidence for this claim. They also explain how reincarnation takes place and what the master plan of life is. This book is your exit key from the one-life theory and with this new insight you will never doubt your own immortality. Your outlook on life will forever change when you realize that death is an illusion and that your consciousness cannot be extinguished.
The insight presented in this book originates from the spiritual science of Martinus, the Danish visionary and mystic. When he was 30, Martinus experienced an expansion of his consciousness which gave him cosmic consciousness. His work is the most profound spiritual revelation ever to have been disclosed to humankind.

Martinus' verdensbillede vil begejstre læseren og overbevise hende eller ham om, at étlivsteorien ikke har hold i virkeligheden og at der er meget mere på den anden side. Der er kapitler om, hvad der sker, når vi "dør", hvorfor reinkarnation er en nødvendighed, hvordan vi former vores skæbne, hvordan vi kan forstå verdenssitiationen og vores egen udvikling, og om hvordan vi kan kan få svar på livets store spørgsmål.

Vores fremtid ser lys og lovende ud, og det vil blive åbenlyst, når man bliver bekendt med den bagvedliggende logik, der afsløres i Martinus´kosmologi. Her er åndelig næring for det moderne, videnskabeligt indstillede mennesker, der ikke længere klan tro, men som har behov for at vide.

Loven for tiltrækning
Den vigtigste naturlov i dit liv
- dine tanker er magnetiske og med dem tiltrækker du mennesker, hændelser og omstændigheder i dit liv
ISBN 1-55778-813-8
Nu er lykken endelig indenfor rækkevidde! Loven for tiltrækning er den mest betydningsfulde lov i universet, og den er aktiv i dit liv, hvad enten du ved det eller ej. Derfor er det måske på tide at du bliver bekendt med denne lov, sådan at du kan arbejde sammen med den og dermed blive bedre til at forme dit liv og din skæbne. Bogen forklarer, hvordan loven virker, og den giver dig de nødvendige redskaber til at bringe sundhed, glæde, tilfredsstillelse og lykke ind i dit liv. Det er en bog, der virkeligt kan ændre dit liv.

Ægteskabets nedtur Det store opbrud i vores seksual- og samlivsstruktur
ISBN: 9788771703313
Har du ”ondt” i parforholdet? Kan du ikke finde ud af at leve i harmoni i ægteskabet? Tror du, det er dig selv, der er noget i vejen med? Så er der hjælp at hente i denne bog, som afslører den egentlige årsag til vores ægteskabelige uformuenhed. Det er ikke dig, der er noget galt med, men årsagen skal findes i en organisk / seksuel / mental forandring, som sker med alle mennesker, idet vi udvikler os. Vi er ganske enkelt ikke så ægteskabsegnede, som vi var i fortiden. Vi må som mennesker indstille os på, at vores seksuelle polforvandling omskaber os til at blive mere og mere hele, selvkørende mennesker med en tilsvarende mindre egnethed til at være parforholdsvæsner.
Denne bog forklarer årsagen til vores degenerende ægteskabsevne og er altså en udstrakt hånd til dem, der er i vildrede, forvirrede og deprimerede over, at de ikke kan leve i harmoni med deres partner.
Bogen er baseret på Martinus´ klare, logiske og intelligente analyse af vores seksuelle polforvandling – på vores vej frem mod at blive rigtige, alkærlige mennesker.

Fate and karma in a Nutshell. How to understand your fate and change it for the better
To most people alive today their fate is a big mystery. Why do certain events – good or bad – happen to them? Is there anything they can do about it? What creates fate? Can we change our fate? Is it at all possible to know what awaits us?
Yes it is! Our fate is ruled by laws and once we become knowledgeable about those laws, we can start sowing what we would like to reap. Because that is the point: the law of karma decrees that we reap as we sow – in this life or in a later life. We all know that if we sow carrots, it is carrots that we are going to reap, but most people are not aware that this is also valid for their non-physical manifestations. When we sow anger, we reap it, when we sow hatred, we reap it, when we sow love, we reap it.
This book takes you through the labyrinth of fate and karma and it reveals how to create a fate that you will love. It will show you that you can change your destiny. It will also show you how to avert a dark fate that you may unknowingly have sown in a past life. In short: when you have read this book you will have the tools to master your fate. Your fate is in your hands. Your karma is in your hands. When you master your fate, you can create happiness, bliss and joy.


Skæbne og karma i en nøddeskal. Hvordan man kan forstå sin skæbne og ændre den til det bedre
For de fleste mennesker i dag er deres skæbne et stort mysterium. Hvorfor bliver de udsat for gode eller dårlige hændelser, ulykker eller sygdomme? Er der noget, de kan gøre ved det? Hvad skaber vores skæbne? Kan vi ændre vores skæbne? Er det overhovedet muligt at vide, hvad der venter os?
Ja det er! Vores skæbne styres af love, og når vi først får indsigt i disse love, kan vi begynde at så, hvad vi gerne vil høste. For det er sådan karmaloven virker: vi høster, som vi sår - i dette liv eller i et senere liv. Vi ved alle, at hvis vi sår gulerødder, så er det gulerødder, vi kommer til at høste. Men de fleste mennesker er ikke klar over, at dette også gælder for deres ikke-fysiske manifestationer. Når vi sår vrede, høster vi det, når vi sår had, høster vi det, når vi sår kærlighed, høster vi det.
Denne bog fører dig igennem skæbnes labyrint, og den afslører, hvordan du kan skabe en lys og behagelig skæbne. Den vil vise dig, at du kan ændre din skæbne. Det vil også vise dig, hvordan du kan afværge en mørk skæbne, som du ubevidst har sået i et tidligere liv. Kort sagt: når du har læst denne bog, har du værktøjet til at mestre din skæbne. Din skæbne er i dine egne hænder. Din karma er i dine egne hænder. Når du mestrer din skæbne, kan du skabe tilfredshed, glæde og lykke.
Life after Death in a Nutshell - What happens when we die
Is there life after death? Yes, there absolutely is, because death is an illusion and this is not the only life we live. So, where do we go between physical lives, what does such a world beyond time and space look like, and what do we do there? This book, the third in the Spiritual Nutshell Series, reveals what happens when we die. The authors present an extraordinary look at the spiritual world: the world that exists before and beyond this physical plane, the world behind the veil where everything has its origin and which constitutes an incredible dimension of harmony, bliss, and love.
We are not supposed to go on living in ignorance about the spiritual world and this book, based on Martinus´ extraordinary insight into the mystery of life, lifts the veil so that we can see for ourselves what awaits us after the death of our physical body. That world is one of beauty, wisdom, and learning - one we can look forward to entering. Death is a beautiful experience and it is actually great to die – we just don’t know it. So, allow yourself a sneak-peek into this wonderful realm so that you WILL know, and be prepared for what is to come. It is a world beyond your wildest dreams.

Livet efter døden i en Nøddeskal - Hvad sker der når vi dør?
Er der liv efter døden? Ja, det er der absolut, for døden er en illusion, og dette liv er ikke det eneste, vi lever. Hvor kommer vi så hen mellem de fysiske liv, hvordan ser en sådan verden hinsides tid og rum ud, og hvad laver vi der? Denne bog, den tredje i Den Spirituelle Nøddeskalsserie, afslører, hvad der sker, når vi dør. Forfatterne præsenterer en ekstraordinær indsigt i den åndelige verden: den verden, der eksisterer før og bag det fysiske plan, den verden der ligger bag sløret, dér hvor alt har sin oprindelse, en verden af harmoni, lyksalighed og kærlighed.
Vi skal ikke blive ved med at leve i uvidenhed om den åndelige verden, og denne bog, der er baseret på Martinus´ ekstraordinære indsigt i livsmysteriet, løfter sløret, så vi selv kan se, hvad der venter os efter vores fysiske krops død. Den verden, der venter, er en af skønhed, visdom og indsigt og én vi kan glæde os til at passere ind i. Døden er en smuk oplevelse, og det er fantastisk dejligt at dø - vi ved det bare ikke. Så tag et smugkig ind i denne vidunderlige verden, så du bliver vidende om og forberedt på, hvad der venter. Det er en verden, der overstiger dine vildeste drømme.
