Description

What is enlightenment? What does it do for me? How do I get there? Who or what is God? And who am I really? These are all questions most of us ask from time to time, and some of us insistently. In this book the sage invites the reader to come to the truth of who you are, to see your original face, your face before you were born. Discursive communications on such themes serve to obfuscate rather than clarify, often leading to outrage, confusion and division. On the other hand parables and stories transmit deeper truths intuitively, conveying an understanding way beyond the mind. These stories are not only pointers but also catalysts - they precipitate understanding and guide their inherent wisdom to seep gently to the heart.
