About the book: 1954 / The beginning of all creation has the same meaning as the end of all creation, since all things have always existed and will always exist. Everything that anyone has ever been or will be, he is now. This is a truth that is often overlooked in man's quest for understanding. He forgets that God was all that was, and therefore all that is now or ever will be. George Van Tassel presents in this latest work a middle-of-the-road view of life, religion, our planet and the spaces beyond. He takes the reader far beyond our atmosphere to give technical data about lines of energy, states of space. He describes polarity, its positive and negative aspects and applies theory to fact so that the reader can understand every point of it. Mr. Van Tassel writes that religion and science are the same thing, the only difference is that they are two opposing points of view. Just as a wall is a wall, no matter which side you stand on, so is science and religion, life itself. According to Van Tassel, the Bible is an accurate history of events that repeat in cycles. He says there are predictions in the Bible regarding spaceships, including a prophecy that a day will come when ships will come to take away people who are ready, leaving those who are not to face the inevitable approaching catastrophic destruction. It is described who will leave and who will stay. This book contains an explanation of the reasons why certain personalities have such a strong influence on a person when they meet - a strong, unreasonable hostility or a strong attraction for no apparent reason. The vortices of the human body are responsible for such reactions and also explain the influence of a person on others. In The Council of Seven Lights the reader will find many absorbing facets of knowledge - new data on atmospheric conditions, additional information on spacecraft, and, for the seeker who desires greater understanding of the larger picture of life, a philosophy worth exploring.
