MICHAEL HARNER, author of The Way of the Shaman Peter Kingsley’s endnotes alone justify purchasing the book.” “A work of great and courageous scholarship-a blockbuster to open the closed minds of those, East and West, who have chosen to ignore or denigrate the immense role played by shamanism in the spiritual and political origins of what we know today as Tibetan Buddhism. ONO GANZORIG, Director, Mongol Environmental Conservation In reading it I felt as if I was traveling through time to experience our source and listening once again to the songs of my ancestors.” “This book, this amazing and empowering song, is a miraculous gift to the Mongolian people.

Then bring that idea to everything you do-every decision, every choice, every plan, every interpretation. I suggest that you read it several times and really get the golden idea at its core. LARRY DOSSEY, M.D., author of Reinventing Medicine and The Power of Premonitions And for that, Peter Kingsley deserves the highest praise.” This book will inspire, delight and enlighten many but will also challenge others because it is a mirror that reflects our most stubborn prejudices about the origins of our most sacrosanct cultural beliefs.

His work is truly worthy of that overworked term wisdom. Peter Kingsley is a master of adamantine prose and peerless scholarship. “A Story Waiting to Pierce You is, simply, piercing. JACOB NEEDLEMAN, author of What is God? and The Heart of Philosophy “A blazingly alive work of scholarship and spiritual insight.” JEAN HOUSTON, author of A Mythic Life and The Hero and the Goddess It is a core story of human becoming, the secret history that holds the codes to what we were and what we yet may be.”
“This is a book of miracles-deceptively simple, actively profound.

WALTER BURKERT, author of Greek Religion and Babylon, Memphis, Persepolis Scholarly discussion depends on evidence- of which A Story Waiting to Pierce You offers the most surprising riches combined with overwhelming expertise.” “The rich and dense scholarship in this book is admirable, nay incredible, with worldwide scope. He is a magician who reveals the golden thread of truth which makes its way through time and space, secretly holding the fabric of our world together. A Story Waiting to Pierce You reveals the surprisingly mystical origins, and purpose, of western culture as well as what it means to participate in its eternal unfolding right now.” “Peter Kingsley is more than a master storyteller.
