Author Description

Product Description "A Gate Opens" is a book of great value for sincere seekers of Truth and higher knowledge. The understanding expressed in it is exceptional in its breadth and depth and its ability to help the reader bridge the conventional dichotomies between material reality and the metaphysical; between science and spirituality; between the personal, on one side, and the social and political, on the other. "A Gate Opens" is the collected essays of a German man whose life spanned most of the Twentieth Century and who for a time had a personal relationship with Abd-ru-shin, author of the revelatory "In the Light of Truth: The Grail Message" Mr. Vollmann's purpose in "A Gate Opens" is to take the "building-bricks" of knowledge offered by Abd-ru-shin and show how they "can be joined together like mosaic pieces" to bring about "a gladdening spiritual experience". The essays in "A Gate Opens" involve consideration of an astonishing variety of ordinarily disconnected topics: monetary systems, nuclear energy, penal law, the origin and evolution of man, the wisdom of ancient civilizations, death and reincarnation, the development of language, astrology, Biblical prophecies, the nature of cancer, the astral body, to give just a sample. What unifies a discussion of all these subjects is Mr. Vollmann's concern with helping the reader recognize how the Laws of Creation underlie activities in every sphere and thus give order and connection to the world on all levels. This is a book whose richness can only be suggested in a review. The author in a most illuminating way draws throughout from his extensive knowledge of ancient scripture, philosophy, poetry, history and science. His perspective brings new insights to all of the topics he addresses. Not simply giving explanations that can satisfy the intellect. Mr. Vollmann also speaks to the spirit of the reader, offering images that can bring deeper understanding and recognition. As such, "A Gate Opens"
