Today’s world is a world of polar opposites, with both violence and the quest for peace; an increased incidence of terror and the need for security; creativity and conflict; concentrated wealth and spreading poverty; crumbling religious organizations and the increased desire for spiritual development; and globalization and humanitarian care. People all over the world constantly struggle to integrate these contrasts into a harmonious and happy life.
In the Eyes of Anahita tells the story of a corporate executive’s awakening during a two-week business trip in South America where he gets confronted with both extreme richness and blatant poverty. During a number of mystical encounters with women of different ages, all of whom have the same dark, mysterious eyes, he is given two questions which he must answer in order to return balance to today’s polarized world:
As he ponders these questions, he has a spiritual experience that helps him to transcend the duality between good and evil and discover his truth. Not only does this allow him to develop a holistic model for conducting business, but it helps him to refocus his life and integrate his soul’s purpose in all that he does so that he ultimately finds inner peace, harmony and happiness.
In the Eyes of Anahita was inspired by the author’s encounters with poverty and extreme richness as a traveling business executive in South America, and it reflects a personal spiritual evolution that took place over a two-year time period.
The author has chosen to present this important material in the form of a mystical adventure story since he believes it is necessary to make an emotional journey into this world of contrasts in order to effectively challenge and broaden readers’ perspectives.
