    About this ebook

    We are fortunate that this story, one that has lay dormant on dusty booksellers’ shelves for so long, is now available in e publishing format. But undoubtedly the reason most scholars will rush to download the story is that for the first time it has been translated into modern English. More importantly, it is free.
    You will find here the story of the seer, the blind woodsman, the (false) messiah and many other characters who helped to shape their nation. Although ancient, it is a story for our time. Although full of hope, it is extremely depressing. It will make you laugh, it will make you cry.
    It will also make you think and lead you to question our very being. How did we become what we have become and what will we become after we have become the next thing?
    It is a book that will change your life.
