First Edition - A Story of the Magic of Life and The Light

In a delightfully mystical short story, while deep in the vast wilderness of the Himalayan mountains the author encounters something very unexpected . . . answers to his innermost questions.

"Always I have loved the vastness and beauty of nature, sensed some deep mystery here, some great and incomprehensibly profound meaning, as do many. One explores the great mountains, standing eternal like monumental impenetrable puzzles, inviting wonder and question. What is this vastness, what does it mean?—and the beauty, what is the cause of it? What makes it? What is this enormous energy of the world, the power, the life, the light?"

"From year to year one senses the mystery and attempts to read the riddle, to answer the question. For so long I traveled the wilderness, thinking how incomprehensible everything was; often dangerous, sometimes sad, sometimes joyful, yet always beautiful. Always very beautiful. I lived and walked the mountains and traveled through forests, searching—and certain things looked so enchanting, so mysterious. Tongues of flame writhing against a black night; the eye of a cat; an eagle wheeling through the blue; a crystal lake set in emerald forest; a great white peak sailing on the sky; millions of stars scattered upon the night sky like so many cities of the gods. So often I gazed in wonder and awe, and once in a while a strange feeling would come over me, as though something never seen yet long anticipated was about to happen, that a veil was about to lift, that at last I would see into the mystery. But then . . . then the moment would pass and nothing would happen, the dream continued, the riddle still unsolved, the secret unrevealed, the spell unbroken."

While in the great mountains, the author meets with an experience that illuminates those mysteries, the secrets of life and light.

Magical, inspirational and highly entertaining, this is a story that will touch you and leave you with a profound message.

About the author

M.G. Hawking

89 books38 followers
M.G. Hawking is an avid traveler, adventurer, and writer. He relishes exploring remote areas of the globe to discover regions unknown to the Western world, always in search of extraordinary people and experiences. He has found many, especially in the Great Range of the Himalaya, the setting for most of his books. His focus is documenting profound wisdom traditions and revealing the knowledge and power they convey. Hawking is the author of the book series, The Living Part of a Myth, and the new presentation, In The Valley of Supreme Masters, along with the associated companion volumes. When not traveling, he spends his time in Northern California with his wonderful team at Wisdom Masters Press, working on projects related to presenting books of an esoteric and metaphysical nature.
Heather Cantrell, M.Litt., contributor and editor for Wisdom Masters Press, is an experienced world traveler. Having been born in Nepal to British parents who were teachers in various parts of Asia, she has extensive experience in the Himalaya. She is an devoted adventurer, trekker, equestrian and animal lover. Amber Chellings, B.Phil., contributor, researcher and coordinator for Wisdom Masters Press, is an avid photographer, outdoor enthusiast, and ardent equestrian.
The purpose of Wisdom Masters Press is to reveal the exceedingly rare esoteric knowledge and practices of profoundly enlightened individuals. Years ago, while on an extended trek in the Himalayan Range, Hawking encountered a remote village deep in the vast wilderness of massive ice peaks, a village called Siddhalaya. There he had the privilege of meeting a number of extraordinary men and women—introduced to him as “masters” and “adepts"—possessed of a knowledge and a power virtually unknown in the Western world.
Our team's intent is to bring this knowledge to light. We work very hard to produce volumes that are of exceptional value. In these books you will meet these remarkable masters and hear first-hand their expressions and explanations of the fundamental knowledge, essential principals of consciousness, and methods of visualization that manifest as astonishing creative powers.
Fragments of their knowledge have at various times through the millennia appeared in esoteric literature, in the more profound Eastern philosophies, and in the occult wisdom traditions of various ages. This is to be expected—the knowledge that conveys true power has an primordial origin, believed to have originally been transported to ancient Egypt from an antediluvian, mid-Atlantic civilization of pre-history, long disappeared from our world.
In modern times, splinters of this knowledge have resurfaced in various presentations, although unfortunately absent both the most fundamental elements as well as the most advanced elements of the wisdom system of the supreme masters.
As so many people have been disappointed to learn, attaining the ability to directly manifest whatever persons, circumstances and events you desire to experience in your life cannot be truly or fully achieved through simplistic concepts of “positive thinking” or some alleged “secret,” simply because a great deal is missing in those “new age” writings.
Therefore, we resolved to work diligently to reveal directly from true masters the principals, illumination, guidance and techniques necessary to create a superlative life. This knowledge can wholly transform your experience of this world in every positive way imaginable. It is, therefore, of great value.

Just a restatement of things said in another book of his

Disappointed nothing new here. Information is good but already read it before. I felt misplaced that it would be additional material
