The Book Of Early Whisperings

Walter Russell

Brought to you by Altrusian Grace Media and narrated by Matthew Schmitz. 
"These writings are the whisperings of God’s Voice to me during those early periods of illumination which occurred in May of every year of my life from the age of seven. These periods of ecstasy – which always characterized cosmic illumination – lasted from ten to fourteen days, during which time I was obliged to seek solitude and aloneness in forests. I endeavored to express the thoughts and moods of these periods of ecstasy as my varying lack of body awareness balanced with my ever increasing cosmic God-consciousness with God and Nature." - WALTER RUSSELL.
