Description
The hoary Epic of Gilgamesh, which has puzzled many an academic scholar, is best seen, according to this author, not only as the world’s oldest poem, but also as the oldest written saga of Body, Mind & Spirit, now revealed, for the first time in history.
How to Become Immortal ~ The Adventures of King Gilgamesh and the Wild Man, is a remarkably different interpretation of the world’s oldest poem, myth, or allegorical story, depending upon your view, of the 4,000-year-old Sumerian Epic.
In this dynamic portrayal, King Gilgamesh, Enkidu the Wild Man and all of the Epic’s major characters, are seen as living, breathing, embodied spiritual creatures. The great King of Sumer is actually the epitome of Body, Mind & Spirit, as are You. Perhaps that is the ancient authors great message, seen anew in this New Muse book.
Advance Praise
“You are not a human being in search of a spiritual experience.
You are a spiritual being immersed in a human experience.
We are one, after all, you and I. Together we suffer,
Together we exist, and forever will recreate each other.”
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin.
