This is a fascinating book but it’s hard to describe. It’s about alchemy, sacred geometry, freemasonry and native American shamanism. It’s printed on heavy paper and is full of photographs, diagrams, colour illustrations and plates. It’s full of wisdom even though it is a bit strange. The author suggests that the Philosopher’s Stone is a shape like an oblong square rounded off at the end, which is the same shape as a Masonic Lodge as described in freemasonry. This is then illustrated as operating in the human body in all its systems. Finally he tells many stories about a Native teacher he met living further up the mountain from him. These are intriguing and they teach us a lot. The author manages to bring it all together at the end and reveals how transformed he has been by all this material. I can recommend it but it’s a weird one…
