The true story of four young Hungarians in search of inner meaning at a time of outer upheaval - the holocaust - who encountered luminous forces that helped them find new direction and hope in their shattered lives. These forces, which came to be known as angels, accompanied them for seventeen perilous months, until three of them met their deaths in Nazi concentration camps. Only Gitta Mallasz survived to bring their story and these remarkable dialogues to the world. Gitta Mallasz always rejected any notion of 'authorship' for this book, saying, I am merely the 'scribe' of the angels.
This is one of my favourites. A beautiful description of the inner path of four young artists, and their meeting with their angels. (I actually have the hungarian original, being a hungarian)
How can one review a book that speaks truth? How does one exert their own opinion and world philosophy on radiant hope and light, that encompasses so much more than our own existence.
The best reaction to books like this and A Course In Miracles is to accept and practice.
That said, one of my favorite quotes is "Ask only from Heaven; to the earth, give!" And I have many, many quotes underlined.
A lady from my Facebook-based INFJ group recommended this book to me one day after I vented my disappointment concerning a friendship gone sour.
The premise is that four friends meet together every Friday, during WWII, to talk to and hear from angels from Heaven. One of the women relays messages from each of the other friends' guardian angels while Gitta, the author, records them. Eventually, three of the four friends are killed in concentration camps, but Gitta manages to save most of the notes which she subsequently publishes.
What I took from the many wisdom nuggets was mainly that we often rush through life without savoring each moment. Unhappiness is caused by not living our purpose. When we surrender to the purpose hidden in all actions, we will be doing the will of God. Distraction comes when we aren't aligning out purpose with His. When we are focused, we are less aware of ourselves and in the "flow" of HIs will.

Un livre assez intriguant, qui soulève beaucoup de questions. Le texte est parfois très clair, parfois énigmatique. En fait, souvent énigmatique. Je dirais même qu'on n'y comprend rien la plupart du temps.
Dans ce sens, cela peut inciter à laisser le livre de côté et ne plus l'ouvrir...
Paradoxalement, les dialogues éveillent finement la curiosité.
Les textes narratifs de Gitta Mallasz qui ponctuent quelques fois les dialogues avec l'Ange sont bouleversants car ils nous plongent dans l'ambiance de la Hongrie durant la seconde guerre mondiale.
La fin est déchirante.
Je reste perplexe après cette étrange lecture. Mais je peux dire que j'ai parfois eu l'impression que le texte répondait à mes propres questions dans les moments les plus justes de ma vie. C'est-à-dire que les réponses tombaient parfaitement.
It's hard to believe stories like this. Maybe it happened. Maybe it was misinterpreted. Maybe it's a complete fabrication. Who knows.
People are looking for answers and we all relate to the questions, but the answers were weird. They were puzzles more than answers. And frankly, I don't believe in some of the answers they gave.
However, whatever answers they received gave them strength enough to get through the Holocaust and for that I respect what was said. Miracles did happen and some people were spiritually stronger than others. For that I'm glad for these people.
In the early days of World War II, something remarkable happened. A group of friends were contacted by an angel and received earth-shaking messages for years. This is channeling before channeling was a "thing." The messages are familiar to those who listen to other channels: Esther Hicks, Darryl Anka, Lee Harris, Sheila Gillette--but they came VERY early on.
Ce livre est d'une grande intensité spirituelle. L'enseignement des Anges est d'autant plus troublant qu'il se manifeste dans une période de barbarie. Certaines révélations restent mystérieuses car difficilement interprétables à notre niveau d'évolution. D'autres se présentent comme des évidences. En tout cas elles montrent à quel point l'homme patauge encore à la superficie de ce qu'il pourrait être.
Challenging book of four young Hungarians and their contact with spiritual beings at the time of the Holocaust... the book is written by the only survivor of the four...
