Synopsis

In "Solomon's Proof," Rashan Barcusé chronicles the life and teachings Michael Solomon, a brilliant former Stanford anti-war activist now Rocky Mountain yoga teacher, who claims to be the one prophesied by all religions--and says he can prove it. Indeed, he offers a scientific proof for his assertions at SolomonsProof.com, which encompasses the convergence of science and spirituality, proof of the Big Bang and String theories, the appearance of the World Teacher, the unity of all religions, and the next step in human evolution. From a serendipitous meeting in a Boulder, Colorado, bookstore 33 years ago to 9-11 and beyond, Barcusé chronicles his relationship with the sometimes outrageous but always compelling Avatar, whose favorite subjects range from the distortions of the "New Testament" to the similarities of theoretical physics and spiritual teachings, and from the politics of the theatre to the theatre of political action. In addition, Solomon draws a parallel between the two greatest literary thefts in history, those of Jesus and "Shake-speare," which are reconciled in a dream by Barcusé in the form of a full-length Shakespearean comedy, "The Bard's Ghost" (included as an appendix). From Nikos Kazantzakis' "The Last Temptation of Christ" to Norman Mailer's "The Gospel According to the Son" and from Robert Heinlein's "Stranger in a Strange Land" to Richard Bach's "Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah" a host of modern writers have explored the possibilities of an Avatar's life and thoughts outside of the selective composite document called the "New Testament." Is Barcusé dancing with the devil or present at the birth of an historical turning point? [Note: The Hebrew word that appears on the cover, spine, and headers of this book is "Hashlamah," which means conciliation, integration, or completion, depending on the context. It is derived from the same root word as Shalom and Solomon.]
