Human Destiny, Music, and the
Search for Meaning Amidst Tragedy.
ABOUT THE BOOK
It is possible to find meaning within the context of human suffering. Having
served as an emergency responder for twenty years, I've been amazed how
many times we have arrived within minutes of an accident, only to find
off duty doctors and emergency personnel already there, providing assistance.
They just happened by. Discovering this to be a widespread occurrence,
I began to wonder if it was just coincidence, or had some deeper significance.
After returning from a trip to Bali in1994, an event occurred that would forever
change my life. For an entire week, every thought became meaningfully
related to those things occurring in physical reality, as if the very
thought was creating it! Many of the events involved music, whose lyrics
perfectly reflected what was happening at the moment. Psychologist Carl
Jung called such events "synchronicity." In a detective mystery style,
the book traces a quest to discover its meaning, winding through ancient
myth, science, psychology, and religion.
Gradually it's revealed that circumstances of chance happen to all of us, but positive
compensations are orchestrated by a higher level of intelligence, leading
us in an evolutionary process, toward our destiny. What's the source of
this intelligence, and what are we evolving toward? These are the questions
addressed in the book.
The conclusions reached are startling, providing a unique perspective on Christianity
and world culture. Included are such diverse elements as: the shroud of
Turin, alchemy, Russian biological studies, Darwinism, linguistics, chaos
theory, biblical passages, modern physics, and the Dead Sea and Nag Hammani
texts.
A truly life-altering experience, your perception of God and man will never
be the same!
