First Release of U.S. Edition eBook
In a powerful first-hand account, explorer M.G. Hawking reveals the fabled landscapes and profound knowledge of a lost world. On an extended trek in the Himalayan Range he discovers a village deep in the mountains where he encounters extraordinary individuals—introduced to him as “masters” and “adepts”—possessed of knowledge and power virtually unknown to the Western world. His discovery marks the beginning of a series of adventures and experiences; the evolution of relationships with the remarkable people he meets, an encounter with a phenomenal woman most aptly described as a goddess, the esoteric teachings he receives, and a captivating quest to retrieve ancient arcane manuscripts.
This groundbreaking narrative takes us on a voyage through space and time, from the vast peaks of the Himalayan Range to the remote deserts of Egypt, occasionally ranging far back through the ages, for the origin of the power of the masters is ancient. The Living Part of a Myth series was offered in limited edition print form in the Pacific Northwest — Excerpts from reader reviews submitted to the Wisdom Masters Press website:
“Deeply impressive. A rare glimpse of the ancient arts of adepts and sages, the book is filled with descriptions, conversations and adventures with the people who know and preserve the arcane wisdom of an occult world.” —James S.
“A wonderful book that has at once the resonance of truth. A classic and a life changer.” —Willow S.
“A truly magical book, witty, riveting, seriously difficult to put down. A treasure trove of knowledge and a map to the sacred.” —Jackie R.
“Stunning . . . an engaging variety of writing, of wit, of knowledge, of romance and wonder. From the viewpoint of a lifetime of reading, I can say without hesitation that this book has no equivalent.” —Heather M.
In this first book of the series, following his discovery of the remote valley Hawking is asked to assist in recovering two manuscripts, one originating in Nepal 1200 years ago, the other originating in Egypt in the time of the Kings of Egypt Amenhotep III and IV (Akhenaten), written by a supreme female adept, Kalika, over 3300 years old ago. A primary source of the latter manuscript is a set of exquisite marble tablets originating from a civilization of pre-history, perhaps the legendary Atlantis. So begins a danger-filled journey through the ice peaks of the Himalayan mountains into highlands of Tibet.
While it’s possible to read this book as a collection of adventures and mystical experiences, a deeper reading reveals it to be a fiercely felt account of a spiritual journey, an exploration of the true nature of reality, an in-depth account of the vast powers by which masters manipulate reality to produce what seem to be miracles, and far more.
Magical, enlightening, and richly entertaining, this is a book that will stay with you forever. A must read for anyone on a spiritual path or seeking greater personal power.
