Spirituality 103, the Forgiveness Code: Finding the Light in Our Shadows

The book describes life as a timeless journey of discovery through the infinite dimensions of the mind. Narrated as an epic battle between the imaginary foes of light (knowledge) and shadows (ignorance) where the only results of this battle is suffering, created by the wounds (emotions) of the conflict.
The battle takes place in the multidimensional nature of the mind which is depicted as a Magical Mirror where consciousness of our subconsciously created Universe is obtained. The wounds (emotions) of the conflict distort the original pure reflection (light) of the mirror into the infinite arrays of darkness the mind discovers in its inner journey.
The epic poem of this odyssey Is recorded in the historic archives of our Spiritual and biological DNA, where the code of healing the emotional scars of the wounded warriors, Forgiveness, is hidden. The final goal of the initial journey is to remember the coordinates to return in our time machine (mind) to our source (Magic Mirror) with all the wisdom we have discovered in our journey. This retracing of our experience is only possible when the inner and outer battles are pacified by recognizing that light (knowledge) and Darkness (ignorance) are just complimentary tonalities of the infinite hues of Love.
