Product Description
Once, all life in the universe knew the Flower of Life as the creation pattern - the geometrical design leading us into and out of physical existence. Then from a very high state of consciousness we fell in darkness and forgot who we were. For thousands of years the secret was held in ancient artifacts and carvings around the world, and encoded in the cells of all life.

Here Drunvalo Melchizedek presents in text and graphics the first half of the Flower of Life Workshop, illuninating the mysteries of how we came to be, why the world is the way it is and the subtle energies that allow our awareness to blossom into its true beauty.

Sacred Geometry is the form beneath our being and points to a divine order in our reality. We can follow that order form the invisible atom to the infinite stars, finding ourselves at each step. The information here is one path, but between the lines and drawings lie the feminine gems of intuitive understanding.

Explore the miracle of our existence by meandering through the wonderland of geometry, science, ancient history and new discovery, seen through the widened vision of Drunvalo and the Flower of Life. Volume 2 will explore in great detail the Mer-Ka-Ba, the 55-foot-diameter energy field of the human lightbody. This knowledge leads to ascension and the next dimensional world.

About the Author
Drunvalo Melchizedek's life experience reads like an encyclopedia of breakthroughs in human endeavor. He studied physics and art at the University of California at Berkeley, but he personally feels that his most important education came after college. In the last 25 years he has studied with over 70 teachers from all belief systems and religious understandings, providing him with a wide breadth of knowledge, compassion and acceptance.

Not only is Drunvalo's mind exceptional, but his heart, his warm personality, his love for all life everywhere, is immediately understood and felt by anyone who meets him. For some time now he has been bringing his vast vision to the world through the Flower of Life program and the Mer-Ka-Ba meditation. This teaching encompasses every area of human understanding, explores the development of mankind from ancient civilizations to the present time and offers clarity regarding the world's state of consciousness and what is needed for a smooth and easy transition into the 21st century.

5.0 out of 5 stars Flower of Life Review - by Mari from Connecticut, December 13, 1999

By A Customer

After reading The Ancient Secret of the Flower of Life Book - Volume I, I was able to add more pieces to the great puzzle of life. Drunvalo takes difficult topics and explains them clearly. He gives his audience much to think about. I have seen him speak on two occasions and found him to be kind, clear and very informative. He is not arrogant as one reviewer said. He meets with people all over the world and tells you of the latest discoveries. He has studied physics and the arts which gives a balance you don't often see. The book shows many drawings of sacred geometry, the MerKaBa and pictures of the sacred sites and artifacts along with his explanations. Book II will be out soon and I am looking forward to purchasing it. If you're a serious seeker of the mysteries of life, read his books.

5.0 out of 5 stars Consciousness Raising, October 21, 2000

By	Kenneth James Michael MacLean (Ann Arbor, MI USA) - See all my reviews

This book is not for those who think "in the box." It IS for those desiring to expand their mental horizons. In this book the author talks about the 5 levels of human consciousness, the MerKaBa(the energy field which surrounds all living things), and explains with geometric diagrams, a very interesting interpretation of the Biblical story of Genesis. And there is a lot more in this book to blow your mind. Of course, there is no way to "prove" any of this, however, it IS information that you can apply in your life to see if it works for you. I have had personal experiences with some of this material that makes it real for me. It is written in a conversational tone, because the book is an edited transcript from a series of lectures the author gave. The subject matter is very deep. Don't pick up this book if you are looking for a light read, but if you are a seeker of truth, you will surely enjoy this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent - practise discernment, October 4, 2006

By	M "merkabite" (Portland, OR) - See all my reviews

I'm reading this and Vol II for I think about the 4th or 5th time in about 5 or 6 years. Every read feels like a new gift; I get more out of it each time I look at it. Just over 6 months ago (end of March 2006) I finally was able to take the Flower of Life workshop with a facilitator sanctioned by Drunvalo. My merkaba has been up and running ever since, and I am no longer the same person I was before the FOL workshop. I have changed profoundly in ways that I am unable to articulate. But I have to say, if this work doesn't resonate with you, doesn't feel right, let it go. It's not for everyone. Look for something else that gets your juices flowing, or don't. It doesn't matter. If this work peaks your interest, read both volumes, and if you are still stoked about it, set the intention to attend a workshop and watch your life change dramatically. If you are ready for the work, the work will change you in ways that are indescribable. Once you begin to wake up, to see the light, there is no going back. It's not always easy, but it is a great ride and worth the ticket price. Have fun. Peace.
