How Else Can We Evolve?,
By
This review is from: The Secret (Paperback)
The Secret is an epic work which spans more than 150 years, across five generations. Malone articulates a notion many of us share by asking the question, "Unless we find a way to successfully integrate the current brand of heartless, empirical science with the disciplined practice of spirituality, how then shall we surive, much less evolve?" In the same way Dan Brown shines the brilliant light of disclosure on the politically driven origins of what has evolved into today's brand of christianity, Malone dismantles a whole lexicon of myths, legends and erroneous notions about the real nature of the world we live in. The crux of the book is this: our reliance on the legacy we have inherited from Newton, Descartes and the unconscious science they fabricated, has blinded us to the true nature of living and being. We live in the delusion that the world we see, hear, feel and think we know is the ONLY reality. We are mistaken. By walking us through the lives of Michael Devlin and the heirs to his visionary nature, Malone provides a wonderful, incisive and carefully targeted rifle shot through the heart of our own suicidal nature. We are not, as he shows so well, separate and apart from each other or anything else in the Cosmos in any real sense. Until we come to understand this in a personal, spiritual, mystical way, our species can be counted on to exterminate itself. He provides both the motivation and means for creating the essential integration which is needed to provide an alternative path for each of us. It's a darned good read because it is well conceived, carefully crafted and equitably delivered. No one who reads it will come away disappointed.

From Back Cover,
By Avid Reader "Jim" (Columbus, Ohio USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Secret (Paperback)
A remarkable five -generation novel that begins with young Michael Devlin, hustled out of Ireland following an unpremeditated murder. He leaves with only the clothes on his back, his father's gold watch bearing a swastika on its case, and the searing memory of a kindly priest who had seemed transformed into a terrifying embodiment of an all-powerful god.
In America, Michael will leave his job on the railroad to follow a band of Plains Indians through whom he will have a spiritual experience that reveals the Secret, though not its purpose. Michael's grandson will be tortured by visions whose source and meaning he cannot fathom. It is Michael's great grandson, who tempered by World War II and broadened by a career as a diplomat, guesses the awful meaning of the Secret. The resolution and its fulfillment will astound you.
