Walter Clemow Lanyon was a seeker of mystical truth; an author and orator of New Thought Christianity, also known as Christ Consciousness. Lanyon offered his many followers these interpretations so that one would be able to better interpret, read, and ultimately put into individual practice, the spiritual law/principals of the Presence!

"And then one day I heard the Laughter of God in the midst of me and within the world, and all was suddenly changed. Old patterns and ideas were shattered and passed away-a new loveliness of life was exposed to view ... "How does one hear the Laughter of God? Walter Lanyon has a powerful message to share with the world, a message based firmly on the teachings of the Master, Christ Jesus, and the joy and promise it brings is evident throughout the book. In his unique style of speaking directly to the reader, the author reveals what is needed in order to hear this Laughter: "One thing alone is necessary, and that one all-important point is your willingness to take your attention away from the limited human concept of yourself." The realization that God is not some mysterious power but is the very presence of Life within us and our universe brings instant freedom from the discords of human belief."One moment's recognition that you are the Son of the living God, and you have attuned your ear for the Laughter of God." When we awaken to this truth, we can no longer be limited, any more than the chick can be limited to its shell once it has outgrown it. There comes a New Day; the prisons of thought are opened, and we are set free."And one day you will laugh the Laughter of God, too."

There is much spiritual depth in this book that you will need to see for yourself because "It is wonderful!" Many outstanding statements of this writer have come through from the Voice and with Power. His message weaves together Bible verses with outstanding examples that leave an unforgettable impression and help the reader "believe the unbelievable [and] Launch out into deeper waters." The author helps readers realize they can set aside their human reasoning and experience new freedom to go beyond beliefs and conditioning. In many ways one epiphany follows another with an enormous inner surge of inspiration - as the apparent prison doors of mortality are opened. The final sense of this as a real possibility comes as the earth ties to beliefs and conditioning are falling away and a New Path is being revealed guiding the reader to assume the God-nature. "When man makes this assumption, when he recognizes that all life is God, he will assume the qualities of God naturally and find them out-pictured in his life. He will not then try to demonstrate the various attributes of this invisible Power but, by assumption, will be able to call them forth into manifestation at his will." This book may awaken us from a deep sleep to discover the Kingdom of God that has been waiting for our recognition of what IS. "And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly."
