Fire in the Heart
About This Book
In this new book, the third in the trilogy that began with The Magus of Strovolos and Homage to the Sun, Markides continues his fascinating pursuit of the mystical teachings of Daskalos and Kostas, two Greek Cypriot healers and masters of metaphysical knowledge.
What You'll Learn
• Encounter the concept of a genuine spiritual healer as documented through careful sociological observation: what Daskalos actually did, how he explained his method, and the clinical conditions that underwent documented improvement under his treatment
• Understand Daskalos's cosmological framework — which he called the Researcher of Truth tradition — covering the structure of the universe, the nature of consciousness, the mechanics of healing through the elemental world, and the soul's evolutionary journey
• Grasp the role of the 'elementals' in Daskalos's healing practice: the psychonoetic constructions through which human thoughts and emotions take semi-autonomous form in the non-physical dimensions and how negative elementals are the actual mechanism of many psychological and physical conditions
• Recognise Markides's own transformation through the encounter: how the systematic dismantling of his materialist academic framework occurred not through persuasion but through direct experience of phenomena that the framework could not accommodate
• Appreciate the portrait of a genuine spiritual life lived entirely outside institutional structures: how Daskalos maintained a full working life and family while operating at a level of spiritual capacity that most traditions would reserve for full-time monastics or renunciates
