 Episode 1 

Discovering Love

2008 Extended Edition

 

How does a gardener love a rose?
Isn't its beauty rooted in his heart?
A rose means nothing to a rat.
What do we discover then in our love, 
but ourselves? 

 

       Freedom powered by universal love is a largely unexplored ‘country.’ Few people have dared to cross its borders and travel its landscape. Mostly, we are afraid of it. In marriage it is deemed treason; in relationships, poison; in politics, a joke; in business, a big no-no, and in sex, who knows? Nevertheless, without universal love as a principle we wouldn't have a civilization, and in the nuclear-armed world we might not survive while keeping it under wraps. Thus, the novel begins an epic story of love beyond romance, beyond borders and boundaries, even politics, in a scientific search that unfolds around  the Principle of Universal Love at the center.

The epic series of novels, The Lodging for the Rose, unfolds across twelve episodes. Its principle of universal love promises a New Renaissance. But who is willing to face its challenges and boldly step into its world to discover its light? Who stands courageous to break the strong chains of sexual division and isolation? Who can counter the many myths and trained emotions that have been forged over the ages? Who can overrule them with an honesty that embraces our humanity in truth? Here, romance can be uplifted with a brighter joy, and the erotic enriched with a passion that we all share even as we enrich our world and one-another.

2008 Extended Edition

In the light of the ongoing rapidly expanding global crisis, devastating the financial, economic, housing, food, strategic and political scenes, some of which are taking on new forms almost daily now, the first episode of the novels, "Discovering Love," has been updated and expanded in order to provide a richer background for the healing that is required. The updating involved a six month period of intensive effort, starting early in 2008. The result is now available as the 2008 Extended Edition. It is available on-line for reading on the internet, for free. It is also available free for downloading in PDF format (6x9 version), and it is available in printed form at a modest cost for customs printing (one at a time as ordered).
