Book excerpt: Supplication captures a universal, cross-cultural approach to spirituality. Authored by Dr. Patricia Brown, The Supplicate Order defines supplication as an expression for the laws and principles that guide a spiritual aspirant toward communion with the sacred (mysteries), progressing toward an expanded perception of life and grateful reception of blessings, positive creativity, healing, and wisdom. It shows how humanity bridges the manifest explicate order and the unmanifest implicate order. Offering a fresh perspective on supplication, The Supplicate Order carries four messages that pertain to spiritual aspirants at any level: Don't abandon yourself (to self-loathing or to another person's or group's absolute power over you) Start with what you know to do (don't be too eager to get exotic or far removed from your resonant spiritual persuasion) Never think you know everything Don't give up Brown explains how key universal principles verify the human capacity to bring forth "gifts of the spirit," while psychological health and development determine invocatory efforts and receptive capacities. The Supplicate Order integrates global spiritual wisdom and psychological knowledge with the trends of new science, highlighting the human invocation of the sacred.
