"If your reaction to every situation in your life is love and acceptance, ¨then you are passing the tests. If it is resentment, criticism or blame, you will be given the ¨test again when your heart knows you are ready to try again." --Jonathan

Often the spiritual seeker will read countless books and attend numerous seminars in search of the truth. Rarely has so much information been so accessible as in Jonathan Parker's series of programs. The first in the "In Search of Enlightenment" series is titled, "Pathways to Mastership," and it covers a wide spectrum of topics. Each CD in this 12-CD set logically provides a foundation of knowledge for the other albums that follow in the series.
What I found refreshing about these CDs is Jonathan's down to earth style. In a recent interview Jonathan was asked to respond to the practical use of his programs. "To me metaphysical theories are worthless unless they have a practical application. What I'm trying to do in "Pathways to Masterhship," "Piercing Illusions," "Gateways to Discovery," and "Quest for Enlightenment" as well as the other programs in the enlightenment series is to help people integrate what they are experiencing through the programs into their everyday lives."
"It seems to me that it doesn't do much good to sit on a mountain for years meditating and then not apply it into how we interact with others and the planet we all live on. We need to test what we learn in our own inner research, our meditations and our everyday lives. Unless we have a proving ground, which is what earth actually is, and unless we successfully impliment our ideas into our everyday reality, then what we think we have learned has not been completely understood or internalized."
Many of the ideas in "Pathways to Mastership" were guarded secrets taught by the mystery schools and some Eastern monasteris in the past. Jonathan points out on one of the CDs that it took many years to learn only a tiny fraction of the information that today is so accesible on the 12 CDs in this one album. To this end Jonathan has demystified and simplified these esoteric studies.
Jonathan believes that each person must have a direct experience of these teachings. According to him, "People need to experience living the lessons, not just intellectualize them. You can describe the experience of love, joy, happiness, mastery and enlightenment, but until you've experienced it yourself, you don't know what that experience really is.
Fortunately, today we live in an era where there are shortcuts to gain the experiences. That is the purpose of the guided meditations in Jonathan's programs, and why they are such an essential part of all the programs. He says, "I'm not just giving information. I'm leading people to experience for themselves the essential truths of these teachings."
This may be the strongest feature of "Pathways to Mastership" and the other albums. Not only does the listener enjoy the lecture format, but the guided meditations that follow provide the "direct experience" of the teachings. You learn how to remove restricting blocks and clear karmic patterns while enjoying relaxing and mind expanding journeys into harmony, peace and enlightenment.
The best news is that Jonathan is always producing more products to help us all discover the answers to life's greatest questions and unlock the secrets to true mastery and enlightenment.
Help to Help Yourself - Ottaway News Service
Remember the expression, 'You are what you eat?" Jonathan Parker has a better one: "You are what you think." And if you're convinced you don't deserve success in finances, relationships or happiness, chance are you'll get what you want.
William James, the father of American psychology put it this way: "Belief creates the actual fact." How you see yourself today will determine what you become tomorrow. Believe you can achieve, and chances are you will. Believe what everyone's told you since birth - that you're not worthy of success - and you will fulfill everyone's expectations except your own.
For the past 25 years, Parker has explored the relationship between the subconscious self-talk and self-esteem and discovered that all of us have the ability to change our negative programming. His Quantum Quests International company in Oak View, California has released a series of audio programs designed to return control of the mind to its rightful owner - you.
Jonathan Parker has created more than 1,000 programs to help people help themselves. In his "Self-Empowerment for Prosperity & Success" program he uses a three-pronged approach to changing the ways you defeat yourself even before you get started.
First, he talks about how to overcome your limitations and provides research that backs his contention that you have the power to change. Secondly, through guided relaxation and visualization sessions, he makes the subconscious mind available, enabling you to root out negative behavior that you've unconsciously reinforced for years.
And thirdly, through affirmations, he allows you to replace the pictures that generate a poor self-image with positive ones, giving you a fighting chance to overcome years of negative conditioning by parents, spouses and employers.
His most effective exercise is one where you imagine a screen filled with the limiting expressions you use when referring to yourself. He asks you to write "cancel" across the screen and reinforce that with emotion by saying the word "cancel" with vigor. Then you imagine a bright light dissolving all those limiting expressions and replace them with empowering ones.
As both writer and narrator, Parker makes a soothing presentation. He expresses ideas in simple language and puts them in a logical order. He comes across as a friend, willing to help.
The Self-Empowerment set consists of 15 CDs offering success stories, audible and subliminal affirmations, guided visualizations, and practical "how-to" guidance. Some of the guided visualizations are a mere 10-minutes in length so they can be used easily thoughout the day. The affimation programs can be played in the background day or night, and can even be used to take advantage of the power of sleep learning.
Jonathan Parker's programs are appealing because he recognized that most people aren't lazy. That's not why they fall short of their goals. They're blocked by walls of fear and frustration; walls they and pivotal authority figures have built over decades.
Jonathan Parker offers a way to dismantle that wall. His approach is likely to work for you as it has for thousands of others. It all depends on what you think!
