The Announcement

You drive down a road for the hundredth time and notice a house youve never noticed before. You look at a picture and never saw that green spot before. You pick veggies or fruit and think youve cleared the area then go back and see all the ones you missed. Its all in your point of view. Theres a new perspective a different angle - and you see things differently. And thats where the Announcement comes in. It provides that different point of view that new perspective that different angle and does so with a purpose Its for anyone who would like to see the world be a better place but will challenge your ideas of what better is. And when youre done and have had a chance to absorb The Announcement think of others who would hate this book. Then give it to them and cajole bribe beg or whatever you have to do to get them to read it because they are the ones who desperately need it.- Bill Sturk artist and musician. Stumbing across Michael J. Gajdas e Announcement is like discovering the long lost Nag Hammadi Coptic Gospel of Thomas . . . Only what you hear and learn is not from the distant past but from the distant future from the reality of your childrens childrens children. Both magnificent in its scope and initially inscrutable such texts require close and repeated reading in order to bring to the surface of consciousness precious gems of great value and beauty extracted from the vast largely forgotten storehouse of the sacred traditions of the world . . . The Announcement shows us how truth is timeless and how we can make it come alive in the middle of the chaos of our world today. - Joseph Dillard author of Integral Deep Listening Accessing Your Inner Compass.
