Synopsis

 

In this book, the author bridges the physical and the metaphysical, and offers practical guidance for every- thing from business to wellness, separating science from nonsense with parables and irreverent humor. With the perspective of the scientist as well as philosopher, he lays out guideposts for the eternal human quest.

This is the search of eight Seekers from the land of Utopica, who, facing personal predicaments and conflict- ing demands, set out on a mission to seek ancient wisdom from a Sage, who lives in the mountains of Himarest, in Distantland. As the pilgrims journey to Himarest, and in their discourses with the sage, they experience a gradual merging of the physical, the mental and the spiritual.

You are hereby invited to join the explorers in their quest for the universal, the eternal, the infinite. Travel along and enjoy the vistas as they open up to you, following these milestones:
