Galileo's Telescope by Gerry Bailey
The Problem - Down through the centuries the genius of man has built great civilizations. Remarkable beauty has been created through art, literature, and music. Yet, all of our wonderful achievements are eventually destroyed in the lust for power. In today's world nothing has changed. The destructive nature of man continues to wreak havoc on this small planet, affecting every living thing within its confines. Though modern man has made tremendous advances compared to primitive man, the violence and mayhem of ancient times continues to repeat itself, except now, on a much greater scale with the potential of total annihilation. It leads one to wonder, why intelligent, well-meaning humans can't be released from this cycle of bondage where they have placed themselves. The Analogy - By making a thorough analysis of a variety of ancient texts, Dr. Juna Jinsei takes us on an insightful journey to find the answers to the truth of ages that have been dissected, and were once expounded by great sages in the furthest reaches of the world. The facts that form the fundamentals of sentient life are what led to the profound teachings of old. These teachings caused the basic principles for perfect life balance to unfold, which eventually guided mankind to a superior realization of what to change and how to change it. The Solution - Counting Down to a Better World is a study of man at his worst and at his best. It identifies the root causes, which are producing our basic problems, and gives detailed steps on how to better ourselves as individuals. Finally, it brings the ultimate solution discovered in the ancient scriptures to light, so humankind can make the necessary transformation to evolve into higher realms as one united family.
Karen Foster is a splinter in the conventional wisdom's shoe, shedding light on the inconsistencies between what we say we should do, what we think we should do, and what we really do. It all began when she was 18 years old and decided to forego the standard college experience in favor of a trip to San Francisco, a hotspot of nonconformity. Fortunately, she was too young to realize it wouldn't have worked out, so she went ahead and earned a Clinical Psychology degree from San Francisco State University on her own time. Karen recognized that there was no profit worth the irritation of productive job after years of working in both the non-profit and for-profit sectors. Karen moved north to Portland during the dot-com boom, where she launched her own business as a speaker and coach. Karen now works as a professional development trainer in the United States, where she meets all kinds of intriguing people who are currently shocked by her refusal to breed (or do a lot of other things that so-called normal people do.) She still resides in Portland.
