The Waking God Trilogy is not about the doom and gloom that
organized religions would have you believe. It is not about an
Armageddon style 'end times' that pits good against evil in some
final battle where religious dogma is triumphant. Yes, there is a
final battle of sorts, but as Mantrella says, "It is not about
saving humanity, it never has been." While the Trilogy comes down
hard on organized religion and its 'worn out dogma, ' it is not
atheistic. Instead, it totally rejects the idea of some
schizophrenic super-being that loves to punish and reward its
servants, and recognizes a Universal consciousness of which we are
all a part. It acknowledges that within each of us there is a 'god
seed' that is waiting to experience an awakening brought on, as in
any major evolution, by not only environmental, but also social,
economic, and political stress that will help to create a
spontaneous evolution in humanity. Or, if allowed to remain
dormant, this same seed will be our undoing. The prophecies all
speak of a choice. Nostradamus, the Hopi, the Mayans, the I Ching,
the Riddles of DaVinci, and the Tarot speak to a time of choosing.
Hidden codices, books of revelation, and ancient sacred texts also
speak of this time of choosing. That time is upon us. The elements
are all there. From bursts of energy from the center of our galaxy
to the scientific discoveries about the true nature of our reality,
the puzzle nears its completion. Andrew, the young comparative
religions professor, knows what he needs to do. He needs to give
the still sleeping Adam flesh, by mating with a young and
mysterious Middle Eastern woman known as Mara. The time is right at
last, so what can possibly stop Andrew and Mara from coming
together in fulfillment of prophecy? Well, for one thing, there's
Michael. And then there are those who follow Michael, the great
archangel who's made it his mission to keep humanity in its current
ignorant and deluded state. Ranged on the looming battle's other
side are Mantrella, Bringer of Light, and those who follow him.
Meanwhile, Earth itself convulses as its inhabitants endure the
plagues of Revelation. Will those who can stop Michael act in time?
And even if they do, will they prevail? Focusing on 'worn out
religious dogma' as one of the leading causes of human strife, the
Trilogy turns the mythical world of good vs. evil on its head.
Mantrella, a.k.a. Lucifer, is the champion of humanity, while the
Archangel Michael fights to suppress human evolution by preventing
the physical birth of the biblical Adam. Human destiny is placed
squarely on the shoulders of where it belongs: choice; our thoughts
create our reality. The Battle of Armageddon has already begun, but
not the one religion portrays as the End Times. Can Michael stop
the physical birth of Adam? Do the forces of good and evil battle
it out for humanity's soul? Is Lucifer really the 'great deceiver'
or is he humanity's guardian? Who can truly save humanity, if
indeed it needs saving? All that is hidden is revealed between the
lines and beyond the words. Will the 'dreamer' awaken? You must
decide In these times of economic, political, social and religious
upheaval, the TRILOGY is required reading, now more than ever

The Second Coming of Humanity is Book III of the WAKING GOD
TRILOGY; Book I is titled The Journey Begins and Book II, The
Sacred Rota. The series has been called "epic in scope," and New
York Times bestselling author Piers Anthony says, "It will make you
think." Focusing on 'worn out religious dogma' as one of the
leading causes of human strife, the Trilogy turns the mythical
world of good vs. evil on its head. Mantrella, a.k.a. Lucifer, is
the champion of humanity, while the Archangel Michael fights to
suppress human evolution by preventing the physical birth of the
biblical Adam. Mantrella's basic view is summed up when he says,
"It is not about saving humanity, it never has been." Human destiny
is placed squarely on the shoulders of where it belongs: choice;
our thoughts create our reality. The Second Coming picks up after
the 'end of the world' in 2012. It shows how humanity has brought
itself to the precipice where it must decide whether it survives or
becomes a part of the current '6th great extinction.' Further
evidence and guidance of the ancient Tarot Code is revealed as the
characters find themselves on their final journey to Jerusalem. Eli
knows that the Battle of Armageddon has already begun, but not the
one religion portrays as the End Times. Yet the trip must be made
in order for the pieces of the Apocalypse to be revealed. Can
Michael stop the physical birth of Adam? Do the forces of good and
evil battle it out for humanity's soul? Is Lucifer really the
'great deceiver' or is he humanity's guardian? Who can truly save
humanity, if indeed it needs saving? In The Second Coming of
Humanity all that is hidden is revealed between the lines and
beyond the words. Will the 'dreamer' awaken? You must decide In
these times of economic, political, social and religious upheaval,
the TRILOGY is required reading, now more than ever
Andrew, the young comparative religions professor from Book I,
knows what he needs to do. He needs to give the still sleeping Adam
flesh, by mating with a young and mysterious Middle Eastern woman
known as Mara. The time is right at last, so what can possibly stop
Andrew and Mara from coming together in fulfillment of prophecy?
Well, for one thing, there's Michael. And then there are those who

We sincerely hope that you enjoyed BOOK I of the Trilogy. It sets
the stage for THE SACRED ROTA and the progression of events that
leads to THE SECOND COMING OF HUMANITY. Many readers have commented
that the series has many levels of meaning. Our response has often
been that in order to understand what we are saying, the reader
must read between the lines. By this we mean that the real story
and meaning flow not from just the written word, but also from the
inner spirit that guides us all to greater levels of awareness.
When you finish this book, ask yourself the following questions:
"What was meant by the term, Sacred Rota?" Is it just some old
religious tribunal, or does it have a broader meaning in the
context of our changing times? We have presented a story where all
notions of good and evil are turned onto their heads. Is this done
just for the sake of sensationalism, or has humanity been led into
an intellectual abyss where the concepts of such terms have been
distorted to keep the 'faithful' in line? Read between the lines
and see if the 'age of worn-out dogma' is indeed at an end. Here's
when Lucifer harangues an Archangel: "You create demons and false
hopes of redemption. You build them mighty temples and give with
one hand and slaughter with the other. You have kept them separate
and ignorant and give just enough to raise empty hopes. You destroy
their prophets and burn their seers. If they question, you put them
to the rack and crush all semblance of free thought. You give them
a doctrine of poverty and offer riches in your fantasy heaven. Kill
in the name of god and your treasure shall be immeasurable. You
divide them and thus conquer them, and tell them they have no
responsibility but to be good sheep and to follow your demented
dictates." This strikes me as an apt description of global
religion. Piers Anthony

In the "old days" the works of essayists started revolutions and
altered the course of history. Today's essayists are called
"bloggers" and they, too, are shaping public opinion on a
world-wide scale. Bloggers are creating a written snapshot of world
events and shaping opinions and public policies. This collection of
essays, written as blogs, asks the important question, "What's
Wrong With Us, Anyway?" in the areas of politics, religion, the
environment, health, our society and our economics.

When the words of Jesus are interpreted out of context they can be
used to justify many contradictory concepts. However, when they are
examined as a "stream of thought," we see the truth. In JESUS
TAUGHT IT, TOO: THE EARLY ROOTS OF THE LAW OF ATTRACTION, Philip
Harris examines over seventy quotes from the Master and shows that,
contrary to recent claims and "revelations," the Law of Attraction
has not been a secret at all. Instead, it has has been there for
all to see for over two thousand years. Discover the truth. Read
JESUS TAUGHT IT TOO and return to the love, prosperity, and power
that Jesus himself promised.
