More About This Book

Overview

Reality introduces us to the extraordinary mystical tradition that lies right at the roots of western culture. This is the true story of Parmenides, Empedocles, and those like them: spiritual guides and experts in other states of consciousness, healers and interpreters of dreams, prophets and magicians who laid the foundation for the world we now live in. Reality documents the excruciating process that led to their work and teaching being distorted, covered over, forgotten. And most importantly, it presents these original teachings in all their immediacy and power—revealing their ability, just as vibrant now as at the dawn of the western world, to awaken us to what reality truly is.

What People Are Saying

Huston Smith
Stunningly original, Reality is momentous in its implications.
Larry Dossey
Peter Kingsley is a successor to Carl Jung and Joseph Campbell. He is a transformative and life-changing force in our world. His message conveys hope and meaning, and reveals majestic qualities of the mind forgotten for centuries. Never have we needed such a message as now.
Michael Baigent
This book contains the purest, most powerful writing I have ever read.
—(Michael Baigent, author, Holy Blood, Holy Grail)
Robert A. Johnson
Dr. Kingsley's remarkable new book, Reality, is extraordinarily valuable...through his research into our past, he has found the key to the modern world impasse.

    Intriguing

    This is a great book, although I still have not finished it, It's about 600 pages. The first time I tried reading it it freaked me out and i put it away for a couple of years, but now I have began reading it again and I am stuck on it. If you want to understand the world around you in a very different perspective then give it a shot. I would also suggest 'The Emerald Tablets' by Thoth, as a partner book to this one.
