Saints Alive!


I found these tapes while looking for something else at our local library and felt moved to check them out. What I found as I listened to them was a pearl of priceless worth! Hilda Charlton was a spiritual teacher who offered unconventional and deeply personal classes at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York city during the 1970s and 1980s. Two people attended her first lecture - over a thousand were present for her last one. These tapes present 12 of those remarkable classes - which I had never heard of before but am so very glad to have found.

Hilda brings us saints from Christianity, Hinduism, Classical Greece and even modern America - some of them she met in spirit, some she knew personally. All of them she knew as living, active forces, powerfully alive in the world and awaiting our awareness of them. Her treatment of St. Joan of Arc alone, in my estimation, is more that worth the cost of this set. Hilda was so connected to Joan that as she speaks, Joan's truth and power and love come alive in Hilda's words - Joan steps beyond the pages of history and arrives as a helper in courage and deep great Love.

In addition to Joan, Saints Alive! introduces us to:

  • Pericles - responsible for the Golden Age of Greece
  • Holy Lady Ammal - who showered miracles upon the needy when they called her name
  • Jesus - the master of masters
  • Sathya Sai Baba - who performs miracles so that others may believe
  • Our Lady of Fatima - an aspect of Mary whose prophecies shook the world
  • St. Therese of Lisieux - whose "little way" has become a great light
  • Krishnamurti - the teacher that "truth is a pathless land"
  • Sri Nityananda - one of India's greatest modern saints
  • St. Martin de Porres - a black man born in 15th century Chili, known as the "flying brother" who brings healing wherever he goes
  • Sri Ramakrishna - a revered saint of India, said to have come like a comet and left with a light that never dimmed
  • St. Colette - who consecrated herself to simplicity
  • Yogi Ramsuratkumar - a virtually unknown beggar saint whose profound acts of service were believed to have global effects on the material plane. "By simply putting a stone down, he changed the world."
  • George Washington Carver - "the man who talked to plants" and is still leading a people (and the world) out of slavery.

Once you meet these saints, they will always live in your heart. Thank you, Hilda!
