Dialogues with the Stars

With each passing decade, Henryk extends his vision and that of human potential to match our stellar origins with a corresponding philosophy of light. He explains that his two favourite places for contemplating the stars are in the Himalayas and near his house on a Greek island. There are ten short dialogues with a star he names Annabel - cosmic conversations on essential matters. One simple and profound message is to BE - we spend a great deal of time doing from our own little perspective. Light transcends religion and its history and yet it is of the essence. Henryk sees our own and cosmic intelligence in a process of evolution towards a wiser culture with a much deeper and more universal understanding involving a process of endless transcendence. Henryk himself experiences a huge sense of space, breadth and depth as well as peace, beauty and radiance. This gives us a real sense of proportion. He concludes that 'we must be truly open to the magic of the cosmos, and of the stars, to be able to truly appreciate who we are and what it is all about.' His Hymn to Light at the end is infused with a spirit of wonder that reminded me of Francis of Assisi. This inspiring book is food for the soul and joy for the spirit.
