For spiritual seekers of all traditions -- a book that places the mystic and mystical consciousness at the very center of our need for change. Mystical consciousness is an awareness of the real nature of life -- of the secret purpose of creation. The mystic should no longer stay hidden on the fringes of our culture, but should work to make life's deeper meaning accessible to humanity. The mystic can help us awaken to the oneness that is essential to life, and to recognize the signs of God that will guide us and reveal our true purpose.
