Description

The story opens in late September 2008 and the Great Economic Meltdown on Wall Street. Our protagonist, Daniel Bancroft, is back inthe United States after his first fateful and fantastical journey through Mexico, is anguished not just about the money lost and the reckless corporate greed that is costing people so dearly but about the general gloom and fear that seem to have us in their grip. After a few interesting plot twists and turns, Daniel once again finds himself back in Mexico on a sacred journey guided by some of the same great mythological figures that accompanied him in Ledge. Daniel brings this new understanding - that it's our sense of separation from each other and from life that is killing us - to the great playing field that lies at the entrance to the temple of Kukulkan, the Mayan temple at Chichen Itza, where a ballgame is to be played out before sunrise on 12/21/2012. Our fate, we come to understand, lies in the outcome of this game. Kukulkan is believed to be the hub from which the alignment of the sun and the centre of the Milky Way will be observed. An intimate journey of personal transformation and spiritual awakening, this book reveals important teachings at the same time it relates a compelling story. If the lesson of book one is that it's up to us to co-create our new reality, the lesson of book two is that in order to do so we have to get over ourselves and "embrace the other" as ourself.
