On a California hillside overlooking the Pacific, a young artist named Jason finds an ancient relic, a mysterious amulet that contains powerful wisdom - inspired keys to humankind's secret heritage. Jason's efforts to discover the meaning of this charm embroil him in a perilous struggle for global dominance involving the highest levels of the corporate and financial establishment - and reward him with life-renewing insight. Fleeing for his life, Jason journeys into remote regions of Mayan Yucatan, where he encounters enigmatic shamanic guides and undergoes a series of enlightening trials and hardships. Each of the seven mysterious glyphs inscribed on the ancient amulet encodes a sublime mystical truth, and Jason experiences them all in the course of his harrowing, illuminating quest. Jason's remarkable revelations climax with a miraculous, otherworldly encounter and a riveting vision of the earth's future.
Part teaching tale, part edge-of-the-seat adventure story, this relentlessly gripping modern-day spirit quest delivers intrigue and insights that capture the imagination and liberate the spirit.
