Synopsis

Traces five core beliefs that vastly predate all of today's organized religions. Some aspects of these eternal truths or universal spiritual laws have been absorbed into contemporary religions while some have been vigorously suppressed. Author William Fix uncovers these core beliefs with synchronistic material from many spiritual traditions from Black Elk to Eliade; from the Egyptian Book of the Dead to Jung, from Edgar Cayce to Teilhard de Chardin and draws on his years of research in early Christianity, shamanism, ancient hermetic, Gnostic, and Indian writings, as well as his groundbreaking book on the Great Pyramid (Pyramid Odyssey). He challenges such widely held theories as the notion of scientific progress from ancient times to the present, and the presumed irrationality of religion.
