Description

Out of the mysteries of the past comes this antique book that was written two thousand years ago, but was hidden in manuscript form from the eyes of the world and given only to the Initiates of the temples in Tibet to study privately. It can be compared only with the writings attributed to Solomon in the Bible of today. It deals with human passions, weaknesses, fortitudes, and hopes. Included is the story of the expedition into Tibet that secured the manuscript and the Grand Lama’s permission to translate it.

DESCRIPTION

Drawing on a manuscript discovered in the 18th century in Tibet, this book is a veritable collection of thoughts about man, observing him in all his relationships, highlighting the many aspects of his nature. A work rich in symbolism and imbued with knowledge of the highest mystical laws, it is a source of meditation for everyone.
