Readers are presented with an esoteric explanation of selected parables and sayings from the New Testament Gospels, as well as a number of myths and legends from Greek, Eastern and other traditions. In explaining the hidden meanings of these ancient sources Kiourtzidis once again draws upon the work of his great uncle, as well as hard-won truths from his own life.
The Way to Self-Development offers readers practical advice on how to apply the Method and esoteric Christian ideas to their daily life, from doing chores and earning a living to dealing with others and facing unpleasant events.
