The Heavenly Life

by James Allen

Many of us live with the belief that we can achieve heaven or the ultimate peace and happiness only in an after-life. Many of us believe that heaven is a place that is far removed from earth. However, The Heavenly Life by James Allen seeks to convince us that heaven and hell are both here on earth and they lie within our own selves. A deeply moving, insightful and philosophical book that explores the ideas of living with integrity, in harmony with our fellows and in finding the power of love and integrity, The Heavenly Life was first published in 1903. Though not as well known as his most famous work, As a Man Thinketh, this book explores slightly more complex themes and attempts to reconcile modern-day ideas with spirituality.
