Publisher's Synopsis
Swimming with the Whale by Daniel Joseph, systematically introduces the reader to an ever increasing engagement with the research of truth. It is the calling of some but really it the necessity for all. To be successful in the material world or the spiritual world we must become more aware and more conscious, which requires research in the form of observation and study. The first benefit of researching the truth is it frees us from ignorance, fear and illusion that are at the root of our problems both in the material world and in the spiritual world. Simultaneously the research of truth brings us knowledge and wisdom. These are two different things. Knowledge is not wisdom but knowledge leads to wisdom. The System for the Research of Truth presented in the Swimming with the Whale Book will give you something far greater than regular knowledge which can be forgotten, it will give you experienced knowledge, which is something that you own, something that is a part of you and thus cannot be forgotten or lost.Of course the most important knowledge a Researcher of Truth can come to is who and what they are. Again this requires researching the truth in order to distinguish the difference between our constantly changing outer self (our personality) from our changeless Inner Self (the Soul). And this is the aim of the System for the Research of Truth as established by Dr. Stylianos Atteshlis who is more popularly known as Daskalos the Mystic of Strovolos. The. Swimming with the Whale book first introduces Daskalos as a young seven year old master and then reveals the 2000 year old lineage of the Researchers of Truth in this introductory workbook, Swimming with the Whale. This workbook guides your initial approach to these safe, effective and self-evident teachings and practices. Daniel began his training with Daskalos in 1989 on Cyprus and continues this work in North & South America
