To Know We're Loved: A Time to Love and a Time to Die (Consciousness Classics)

This book is a love story--about love that faces death. To truly know and accept that this body dies, and that this is the only time that we have, is the most powerful weapon we can ever have. The book is a reprint of author's The Invisible Way, the second book in his autobiographical trilogy that begins with The Last Barrier.

The life story of Dr. Reshad Feild reads like a modern-day Odyssey propelled by the single question: What is the purpose of life on earth? Born in England in 1934, Feild has been a sailor in the British Navy, a successful pop singer (with Dusty Springfield in The Springfields...), a London antiques dealer, a companion of Zen monks and Himalayan dervishes, and eventually an initiate of the Mevlevi Sufi order in Turkey. The story of Reshad's initiation into the ancient tradition of Rumi, his world travels and teaching work, founding of healing centers, begins in The Last Barrier and continues in the present volume, To Know We're Loved.
