Serrano’s most South American work, saturated with the esoteric history of that continent, from the Giants of the Moon and City of the Caesars, to El Caleuche, the ship that sails beneath the surface of the ocean with all its lights on. ‘The Ultimate Flower’ is a beautiful, haunting work, and a crucial key for understanding the rest of Serrano’s oeuvre.

NOTE: My copy of the book is the hardbound edition and is Burgundy in colour with the Serrano NON-EXISTENT FLOWER which adorns the pages of most of his books ("The Black Lotus with the man sitting in meditation within the Lotus") emblazed on the front in Gold and Black. The lettering is Gold, shiny gold like a King James Bible and the flower is black with golden outlines ("Black Blossoms and Burgundy Blood"). It's actually my favourite book cover of all my Serrano books.
This book has the ability to relax the individual. This 'book' covers the history of Serrano's encounter with his Master/Guru and other members of the "Order" he was initiated into. We also learn of his relationship with "Jason" (Hector Baretta) which would continue to be a theme in every 'Esoteric' book Serrano would eventually write. This 'Jason' character seems to flow in and out of his writings like a ghost. He appears, gives Serrano some great knowledge, and then returns to the "otherside of the Mirror". THE ULTIMATE FLOWER is the beginning of a major theme that would be touched upon constantly in all his teachings. It is important to know that the original title of the book is "The Non-Existent Flower" or "The Flower that does not Exist". Serrano would teach that we are to create our own "Non-Existent Flower", that flower from childhood when the child was still one with all, still saw Fairies and still had TOTAL BELIEF before the world would eventually take the 'flowers of childhood' away, introducing the EGO. THE ULTIMATE FLOWER is a book about Serrano and his friends playing out strange roles as they walk the streets. Some would choose to be poets, some warriors. And they would dress the parts and completely immerse themselves in their "role-playing" games, thus "creating" the Non-Existent Flower. For those who are followers of Serrano, this book is invaluable for it's knowledge of what Serrano's real-life 'Master' spoke of, how he trained his disciples, the name of the Order and the gradual building up of what would be Serrano's OPUS; NOS Book of the Resurrection. In NOS we find the culmination of every single book Serrano wrote, mainly EL/Ella: Book of Magic Love, The Ultimate Flower, The Serpent of Paradise (The Story of an Indian Pilgrimage), The Visits of the Queen of Sheba, Carl Jung and Herman Hesse: The Record of Two Friendships (originally called "The Hermetic Circle") and Nietzsche and the Eternal Return.
A beautiful book that has that dream-like quality of being alone in the pre-dawn hours in soft light listening to the rain drip from the trees onto the windows.....

What is this? - sci-fi, fantasy, new age hallucinations??? Began to lose interest and not follow what was going on, particularly when I learned the following from Wikipedia.
He allied himself with the Chilean Nazi movement in WW2 and campaigned in support of Nazi Germany and promoted anti-Semitic conspiracy theories through his own publication. He joined an occult order which combined pro-Nazi sentiment with magic and yoga. It presented Hitler as a spiritual adept who had incarnated to Earth as a savior of the Aryan race and who would lead humanity out of a dark age. Serrano became convinced that Hitler had not died in 1945 but had secretly survived and was living in Antarctica.

It would be difficult to summarize this to anyone not familiar with Serrano's work. He discusses a sort of awakening and search for what I will refer to as home. In a sort of surreal reality, he approaches the journey to improvement.

This book doesn't make enough sense, and it's completely uninteresting.
