Once, all life in the universe knew the Flower of Life as the creation pattern – the geometrical design leading us into and out of physical existence. Then from a very high state of consciousness we fell into darkness and forgot who we were. For thousands of years the secret was held in ancient artifacts and carvings around the world, and encoded in the cells of all life. Here, Drunvalo Melchizedck presents in text and graphics the first half of the Flower of Life workshop – illuminating the mysteries of how we came to be, why the world is the way it is and the subtle energies that allow our awareness to blossom into its true beauty.
