69. WHY I TOOK 35 YEARS TO WRITE A BOOK

To be precise, I have been writing a book since 1995, that’s some 22 years. But I became interested in “Who We Are” at the young age of 15, when I was diagnosed with illness to which, apparently, there was no cure. Coincidentally, these days I posted the documentaries entitled TRUTH ABOUT VACCINES, and it was vaccines back in 1982 that contributed to my illness. But let’s not go there…

Anyway, the illness was very painful, but most of all, it got me thinking… I had to start thinking, because the doctors told me that only I, myself, could fix my illness using the power of the mind… the power of the mind? What were they talking about…? Soon I realized that the people whom I trusted to carry the pillars of our societies, such as doctors and others, DIDN’T hold the answers to many important issues… In fact, in the case of my illness, they were clueless… Even worse than clueless, they triggered my illness with their chemical (miss)treatments…

But anyway, back to the main point. Why am I taking so long to write this book?

Well… taking 35 years is certainly not being practical haha… but, think about it…! The book I am writing is forever unfinishable… because you cannot finish something that forever evolves… hence the title: The Unfinished Book about Who We Are… in fact, the unfinished book is a collection of 5 shorter books… each one investigating a specific section or level of our wisdom and self-discovery… and there are many very practical reasons why I have taken so long… Below I list a few:

First, I’m writing for myself. There is no destination to get to, because WE ARE each individually and collectively the destination… life is not a goal to be achieved; it’s a path which needs to be traveled and fulfilled, and I am fulfilling it in my own way, at my own pace… through allowing, through accepting, through being the path… and I’m having an amazing time doing it…

Second, the path I’m taking brings together science, philosophy, religion and spirituality, all converging to form a greater understanding of who we truly are…. this means I needed to gather, examine and double-check the wealth of scientific facts, to grasp and to debate the various philosophical reasoning, to delve into and to interpret the enormity of religious beliefs, and to learn and personally experience the many spiritual aspects of human wisdom…

Third, after some 20-30 years of doing all this, one comes to realize, that there is no rush hehehe… because there is no goal, just the path, and every day unfolds exactly as it is meant to… and it carries within it a distinct purpose and meaning… something of immense benefit… and something that always ends in growth, expansion… it is self-fulfilling….

Fourth, I have no specific wish to prove myself as a writer… nor any specific need to earn money from the sales… nor some deep desire to convince or teach anybody about anything… and that means no rush… just growth in peace… and freedom….

I could go on naming the various reasons, but there’s really no need… especially because this summer Book I. will be released, followed by Books II, III, IV and V, all following each other in some 6-monthly increments… all will happen as it must, and at exactly the right time… because, once we understand that time is a man-made structure, we come to realize that there’s ALWAYS THE RIGHT TIME… and furthermore, one comes to realize that… consciousness inherently seeks growth… and growth seeks expansion… and expansion leads to better systems… more responsibility and more efficient realization…

In short, there can be no other way… for there is only the way it is… the way of the absolute… presented through its many expressions, or variations of the one original is-ness… and while on this path, it may appear to us, that we are all traveling very specific and individual paths… but ultimately we’re all in this together, as ONE HUMANITY, and there is only one destination… or, as the great Rumi would say:

“Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing there is a field.
I’ll meet you there.”
