“Neil Douglas-Klotz has distilled his decades of rigorous scholarship, deep practice, and revolutionary insight into a potent elixir for our times.” —Mirabai Starr, translator of Julian of Norwich: The Showings and author of Wild Mercy This book is an approach to Jesus’s recorded words and teachings through his native language, Aramaic, answering many questions clearly and consistently, even if unexpectedly, no matter which Gospel you have in your hands.From the Introduction:“Jesus’s teachings have been used historically to fuel what became modern Western culture, with all its pluses and minuses. At the same time, viewed through his native language, the same teachings provide a solution to our culture’s greatest challenges, pointing the way toward a proper use of our human individuality and will.”Through expansions of Aramaic’s multiple meanings as well as guided contemplations, Revelations of the Aramaic Jesus provides a guide to transformation through the way of the prophet of Nazareth. It shows how Jesus’s deepest teachings address contemporary challenges, such as our relationships with nature and each other, as well as the purpose of life itself.Revelations of the Aramaic Jesus is a guide to living an authentic interior life without dogma and a spiritual path that makes you more comfortable in your own, providing a sense of meaning and purpose.

In two previous books, Neil Douglas-Klotz pioneered a radical new way of translating the words of Jesus---filtering them through the imagistic worldview of the Aramaic language which Jesus himself spoke. Seen through this lens, familiar sayings such as "Blessed are the meek" come into vibrant contemporary focus as "Healthy are those who have softened what is rigid within." In The Hidden Gospel, Douglas-Klotz employs this approach to decode the spiritual and prophetic messages hidden within key words and concepts in the sayings and stories of Jesus. We learn to our delight, for instance, that when Jesus spoke of "goodness" he used a word which in Aramaic means "ripe" and refers to actions which are in time and tune with the Sacred Unity of all life. The Hidden Gospel aims to bridge the gap between the historical Jesus of the scholar and the Jesus of faith of Christian believers. It will appeal to everyone looking for an alternative spiritual vision of Jesus and his message.

"Entertaining. . . . practical, ghostly, and often very funny tales . . . including those by saints like Rumi as well as lay storytellers from Turkey and Persia." —Publishers WeeklyThe stories in this book are drawn from the dozens of Sufi tales that Douglas-Klotz has enjoyed telling in his seminars over the past 20 years. Most of them appear in works of the classical Sufis, such as Rumi, Attar, or S'adi. To preserve some of the in-person feeling and bring the language up to date, he has given them his own improvised turns."If you want to hear a good story but prefer to read it instead, then read Douglas-Klotz! He writes as if he's sitting in your living room, invited over for afternoon tea to entertain you with some heart-pleasing, often humorous, yet soul-searching Sufi stories. His modernization of these old texts is gentle and mindful, yet unapologetic." —Maryam Mafi, from the foreword

“This book is a gift to all those wanting to enter into the spirit of the historical Jesus and the mystic Christ. By honoring the people of Jesus’s land and their poetic language, it brings a needed balance to the historical Jesus movement.” —Matthew Fox, author of Original BlessingThe Hidden Gospel is in plain sight. We find it in Jesus’s familiar sayings translated from Aramaic, the Middle Eastern language he actually spoke. Neil Douglas-Klotz’s lucid commentary guides us in applying Jesus’s ancient wisdom to our lives today.The Hidden Gospel explores the sometimes simple yet radical differences that reveal the spirituality behind the sayings of Jesus from an Aramaic viewpoint. The differences stem from the nature of Middle Eastern languages themselves as well as the worldview behind them—that is, the ways in which they divide and make sense of reality. Each chapter includes meditative exercises and body prayers so that we may directly experience the life-changing spiritual practice of Jesus’s original mystical tradition. The book also invites you to participate in the wisdom revealed by this approach as a direct, personal experience so you can experience the historical Aramaic Jesus for yourself.Now we may be able to learn what Jesus really meant to teach. What emerges is a hopeful, nurturing, and very contemporary spiritual message.This new edition, based on over twenty-five years of continued scholarship, includes updates throughout. A new foreword, preface, and appendix. It also includes a self-study interpretive glossary so you can create your own translations and interpretations.“This gem of a book reminds us that Jesus’s message is about our personal relationship with the divine and with one another. It carries a message of connection, compassion, and wholeness—one that we can all greatly benefit from today.” —from the foreword by Suzanne Giesemann, author of The Awakened Way
