This book is designed for readers interested in deeply practicing and realizing the teachings of the Buddha. It clarifies the Three Trainings—Morality, Concentration, and Wisdom—in straightforward terms and assumes that mastery of traditional states and stages is attainable. The book debunks myths and disempowering dogmas in contemporary Buddhism, providing extensive maps of meditative terrain and guidance on avoiding common traps. It emphasizes real accomplishments and draws from historical and modern meditative practices[1][4][5].
In 'Fingerprints of the Gods,' Graham Hancock argues that an advanced civilization existed in prehistory, which served as the common progenitor to all subsequent known ancient historical civilizations. He proposes that this civilization ended in a cataclysm around the end of the last ice age but passed on profound knowledge of astronomy, architecture, and mathematics to its inheritors. Hancock uses tools such as archaeo-astronomy, geology, and computer analysis of ancient myths to support his theory. He explores various ancient sites, including Egypt’s Great Sphinx, the Andean ruins of Tihuanaco, and Mexico’s Temples of the Sun and Moon, revealing evidence of a lost civilization’s vast sophistication and technological advancement[2][3][5].
