Silver Threads & Gold: The Message of the Mystics (Paperback or Softback)

We, the people, are the great adventurers! We explore, we study, we sift our findings -- whether it is about stars at the beginning of time, or our neighboring planets, or the depths of the oceans. From the moon, brave explorers will venture to Mars. Who can say where the adventure will end or how far from our home planet we will ultimately plant our civilization. The limitations of today will become passé tomorrow, there is no end to it.

There is, however, a different space that contains a greater wonder -- inner space. It has been explored down the ages by mystics, psychologists, the religious, and science with and without the aid of mind-altering substances. It, too, looks as if we will never come to the end of it -- the more we explore, the more we find fresh questions. At the heart of the mystery is the soul.

This work is an exploration of the timeless soul’s adventure through time and inner space. It investigates the whys and wherefores of the soul caged in a time-bound body, as well as the just god and the jealous god; and the savior of man walking through the world unrecognized, except for a few that he claims as his own. There are souls that have found the tear in the fabric of life. They have seen through the illusion and are desperate to escape. For the opposition, there is no end to the efforts made to seduce the soul back into the illusion. Does God exist, and if so, where is He? Who and what is a Master? What is an avatar and what is his true role in the world? Does this world have an order, or is it simply an accident tumbling in space?

The escape route to total freedom of the individual and the nature of the soul is explored in depth in Silver Threads and Gold. The mystery of the soul must be plumbed on a personal basis, no literature can substitute for the experience. The way to that experience is the subject of this volume. Come, join in our mystic adventure! This is not a journey for the curious, the timid, or the unwary; as many cherished beliefs are shattered, never to return to support the chimera of life. Enjoy the journey, but fasten your seatbelt; the road ahead can get rough!
