Contrary to popular belief, the Revelation of St. John the Divine is not a prophesy of various apocalyptic events about to strike mankind but a sublime treatise on the inner path to God written by one of Christendom’s greatest mystics. Surely anyone reading this work of St. John with an open mind will be transformed by the time they reach the last page.
The Revelation of St. John the Divine warrants a place in western spiritual literature equivalent to the most revered scripture of India, the Bhagavad Gita. That its importance and relevance to mankind’s ultimate goal has been overlooked for so long can be attributed largely to the deeply esoteric nature of its content, the complexities of its imagery, and to the inevitable distortions in meaning that have taken place during its translation. The time is right, perhaps, for the true nature of St. John’s deeply insightful work to be made available to a discerning public.
By taking part in this journey through St. John’s erudite treatise the discerning reader will learn the secrets of material Creation and of the manifestation of his body; discover the origin and purpose of Satan and the role of the great whore; become privy to the knowledge of the spiritual forces drawing him back to God; learn the real meaning of the battle of Armageddon; and, finally, understand the significance of receiving an invitation to the joyful marriage between the Lamb and its wife, and of being given the morning star.
The supreme union between the soul and God is the fulfilment of the truth seeker’s dearest wish, the completion of his earthly journey, the last event to be recorded in the Book of Life of every man.
