The Once Upon a Time of Now
mythic adventures, discoveries & meditations in the forest of consciousness
...intriguing and exciting..." |
We are each a story being told...The Once Upon a Time of Now is a journey of discovery into the mythic Forest of Consciousness, a compelling navigation of our internal landscape: the pathways of wonder, of curiosity, of passion. Playfully conceived, rich in both imagery and insight, this dreamlike metaphor is a mature and evocative exploration of spirituality, connectivity, and meditation, offering exquisitely articulated guidance as the young heroine, Agnes, travels on her enchanted quest.
With a deep drink from the wellspring of Hindu mythological traditions, the author creates a thought-provoking and tender tale that probes the transformative powers of community, creativity, and the courage to be fully oneself. As Agnes travels the shadowed and challenging universe that lives inside her, meeting celestials and developing an intimacy with the forest of consciousness, ultimately she recognizes that by embracing uncertainty, each new experience has the capacity to expand her understanding of herself, the world, and her place within it. She thought her goal was simply to find the Lost Temple; instead, she learns to love the life she is living.
