Peter Kingsley A Story Waiting to Pierce You

A Story Waiting to Pierce You is a breathtaking account of our past and our future as human beings. Firmly and gracefully it traces the ancient threads that connect Mongolia, Tibet and Native Americans to ancient figures such as Pythagoras and the very origins of western civilization -- showing how these sacred ties have shaped our lives today. This remarkable book by the acclaimed author of Reality, In the Dark Places of Wisdom and Catafalque: Carl Jung and the End of Humanity is a work both of magic and of the finest scholarship. With haunting simplicity and power it tells the true story of where our western culture really came from -- and of where it is taking us now.
