Cosmosophia: Cosmology, Mysticism, and the Birth of a New Myth

Theodore Richards . . . takes us on an epic journey . . . It is his journey and it is our journey. It is humanity’s journey and though it nec­es­sarily includes the misery of cru­elty and oppres­sion, there is wisdom at work as well . . . Things could be so dif­ferent. We wan­dered away from our African ori­gins so many mil­lennia ago, and though we have become lost and con­fused, the uni­verse leaves clues every­where. A new begin­ning is pos­sible, a new feeling of the inter­con­nect­ed­ness of all things is before us. Richards takes us on a journey into the edge of the uni­verse which is the edge of the human being which is the edge of God.
