The New Function of Religion Religions, as well as their spiritual ideas and cults, have hardly developed any further since their inception around two thousand years ago. They constitute institutionalized, fundamentalist denominations that have not moved with God and the times. Long since, for the most people, they are outdated, inadequate and represent only a kind of cultural sight. By contrast, "The Modern Religion" of George Grow is based on experience and not on external revelation. Particularly, it is open to enlightened, resourceful seekers who are able to jump over the long shadow of the old religious culture and who understand the importance of a modern cult. Special about the cult of "The Modern Religion" is that the rituals are based on metaphysical, very obvious facts and the idea of truthfulness is not based on a required ideal. On the contrary: meaning, fate, predestination, history, worship, etc.) are already taking place in the daily life of more or less every single person. Everyone is tied to the Universe, integrated, relative to the Divine Cosmos, that is, religious in a very actual meaning. With a profound knowledge of the Books of Life and with dedication and some ritual practice, possibilities, insights and encounters will open up in relation to life as we know it, which otherwise would not be happening. This brings meaning, joy, happiness, strength, health and fulfillment in our life. And also miracles that occure on a supernatural level. That is, they are not supernatural, but follow laws we do not yet know. In "The Modern Religion", faith in the traditional sense do not play a role, but a certain leap of faith is needed to leave the commonplaces via back stairs. An extraordinary, archetypal journey, the Hero's Journey par excellence. ---------------------------- The New Dimension of Reading To the postmodern literature, George M. Grow is today what the revolutionary Auguste Escoffier was to the modern kitchen one hundred years ago. His stories are no unsavoury, flat disquisitions. George M. Grow creates literary menus, exciting, diversified and above all else healthy delicacies with a touch of magic. A life without magic is not worth to be lived. Once you have got to know George M. Grow, a life without magic is a vegitating matter. He realized that society is getting to read differently. He is observing society. What is the art of writing? Pleasure, wellbeing, inspiration, health. Grow found the fundamental importance of penmanship for health and writes accordingly. It's not just a matter of figures in his stories; it's a matter of you personally. The paradise on earth will be dished up to you, you will experience yourself embraced by the world. Let yourself be infected, inflamed and enlightened by the spirit. Dinner is served!
