synopsis

an overview of Hera-kles' story

Threshold of AwakeningThe story of Hera-kles was the story of a developed individual.  He "wore a lion's skin".  He was a successful individual in the ways of his world.  He had a mind and used it.  His emotions were controlled and blended with his thoughts.  He was self confident, self satisfied and a power to be reckoned with as a coordinated personality.  

It was at this particular stage of development, that he began facing problems designed to bring out the latent powers of his Soul from within him.  He began the Path or the Journey

"home".

In every nation throughout time there have always been such individuals, that emerged from our masses and walked the Path of further evolvement.  Their numbers in small proportions.  Now, as no other time in history, there walk great numbers of such individuals all across the earth.   Many Personalities in many houses but few who feel at home.

Unlike those who have gone before us, we do not walk the Path alone.  We are a group now, called

 "Humanity".
