DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe origin of the book of Enoch and its message for the present day. The resurrection of a truth that leads us to understand our existential journey. The ascension of the soul in the search for self-awareness. Who are we? What is our existential mission? What are we doing here? These and other questions place us in a terrible deep abyss of our own ignorance and make us unknown to ourselves. And when we find it we can be disappointed. Thus arises the proposal to obtain a new essence, that of Christ. However, there will be many challenges for us. Leaving the territory of ignorance, we set out to seek an elevation in our consciousness. In self-knowledge and in a new proposal offered by Christ. Decipher me or I will devour you. I believe everyone has heard this phrase. An enigma still speculated on today and without answers for many. Did the Egyptians want to eternalize the truth of self-knowledge? Why is it so difficult to know about ourselves? It seems like a veil has been placed over ourselves and we need to uncover it. After publishing many of my books in previous editions, now I want to go deeper into the subject. I believe that in all his messages and content he makes us know a little about the trajectory of the soul in the search for self-understanding. At least we have opened our eyes to what we may consider to be the enemies of our soul. I speak of mysteries, revelation and corruption of consciousness responsible for the vast majority of political and religious systems in this world, which contribute to the unconscious collective operating by creating a mental structure in men, extinguishing their humanity. Systems that devour our own humanity as the enigma narrates. A corrupt society is like a lion that roars around trying to swallow our soul.
