Inventiveness is the essence of creation. The divine geometries articulate the fluidity of all Its dimensions. The Technemes are Its fundamental units, Its Archetypes. Through the tools of Man's growing creativity, That ‘I Am’, out of time and space, becomes present. It begins to lodge permanently in each of Us. But the real leap in quality, From Square to Circumference, is accomplished when the creation of each falling back on itself, becomes Self creation. Here is the Hexagon doubling into the Dodecagon: the Soul. Here Freedom becomes Self-conscious. Here it begins to fly through the ...

What You’ll ...

Become the master of yourself and your emotions. Find the you that you really are. We spend nearly 50 percent of our time thinking about something other than what we’re actually doing. Our past experiences keep us from living in the moment. Anxiety forces us to cling to our predetermined beliefs about ourselves, hold onto previous traumas, and live shackled in the chains of our past. But it doesn’t have to be this way....

This book is actually a spiritual game in which short thoughts, Keys, open windows to consciousness. All you have to do is to read them slowly, read them carefully, with occasional creative pauses: you read a few keys, then stay quiet and listen inward, then another set of keys, then listen inward to see if something emerges from the silence within, and so you move forward in the book. You have a good chance of deciphering most of the keys, experiencing their meaning directly: 'Yes, that's right! I know and feel the same way!" Here are all the little puzzles: Keys to Consciousness!
