Hidden away for long millennia and prophesied to appear in modern times, the oldest teaching in the world uncovers what awaits the human race in The Book of Secret Wisdom released by Radiant Books.

October 12, 2015

When the world’s attention is anxiously drawn to Syria being in shambles, there is another, but positive event that the famous Bulgarian clairvoyant and prophetess Vanga predicted in 1979 to start fulfilling in modern times: “The consciousness of people will change. The oldest teaching will come into the world. They ask me, ‘When will it happen, will it happen soon?’ No, it will not happen soon. Syria has not fallen yet…” The time has come and Radiant Books publishes a new book, The Book of Secret Wisdom: The Prophetic Record of Human Destiny and Evolution, bringing a heart-warming message of love and hope for the human race, which is currently at a decisive point in its development.

The Book of Secret Wisdom reveals on its pages an excerpt from the million-year-old manuscript widely known as the Book of Dzyan. This is the oldest teaching in the world that has served as the source of every ancient religion, philosophy and science. It was originally written in Senzar, a divine language from which the tongues of all peoples throughout the ages originated. The teaching was secretly hidden in the heart of the Himalayas, being accessible only to a few chosen ones over the entire course of human history, including Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ, Lao-Tzu, Pythagoras, Plato, Apollonius of Tyana, Paracelsus, Helena Blavatsky, Nicholas and Helena Roerich. In 1995, Dr. Zinovya Dushkova — an award-winning author and researcher who has devoted more than twenty years to the acquisition of the secret wisdom — after three years of severe probations by the guardians of the sacred teaching, gained admittance to the mysterious Book of Dzyan, being allowed to translate the excerpt consisting of twelve stanzas and present it to humanity.

Through the poetical beauty of language, the twelve stanzas from the Book of Dzyan embrace the past, present and future of both humanity and Earth. They also shine light on the development of the Solar System and the Universe as a whole. Thus, these stanzas, supplemented with exclusive material available in The Book of Secret Wisdom, enable readers interested in new age spirituality and conscious living to find answers to questions such as:

• What is behind the processes currently affecting our planet, which manifest daily in anomalous weather, global warming and natural disasters around the world?
• Why does it seem that more and more evil is appearing every day, manifesting itself through growing conflicts all over the world?
• What really happened in 1999 and 2012?
• What is the great event expected to occur in 2017, and how does it depend upon the collective will of humanity?
• What awaits humanity in the immediate future?
• Why does it seem that time is speeding up?
• Why are people dying, and is there a chance to be immortal?

Containing information and knowledge that has never appeared anywhere else before, The Book of Secret Wisdom has reached the #1 spot in Amazon Best Seller rankings in multiple categories including Ancient & Controversial Knowledge, Unexplained Mysteries, Prophesy and Theosophy. However, Dr. Dushkova encourages readers to examine the evidence presented and then listen to their own hearts alone. She states, “When you feel the words which are voiced here in the depths of your own soul, you may listen to yourself and trust what is said.”

Born in Gagauzia, Zinovya Dushkova, Ph.D., is an award-winning author, poet, philosopher, historian and traveller. Her research has taken her to remote Buddhist monasteries and sacred Abodes hidden within mountains and deserts in Tibet, Nepal, Mongolia and India, where she has studied ancient manuscripts inaccessible to Western researchers. Dr. Dushkova has written approximately forty works of spiritual and ethical content published in Russia, Ukraine, Moldova and France.

On 12–15 September 2015, one month before its release day, the Kindle edition of The Book of Secret Wisdom was a #1 best seller in all six categories assigned on Amazon.com:

#1 in Books > Religion & Spirituality > Occult & Paranormal > Ancient & Controversial Knowledge

Readers’ Favorite has written a review of The Book of Secret Wisdom.

Reviewer Roy T. James writes: “The Book of Secret Wisdom by Zinovya Dushkova is not an easy book to translate. Difficulty in grasping content, which is true for any topic when dealt with deeply and more so for ideas like this and even more for Eastern thought, can be encountered here. Zinovya has certainly kept this in mind while preparing her book. For better appreciation of the ideas presented in this book, mostly belonging to Eastern philosophy and thought, the words used and their contextual meanings are included, and that is a great help. It puts the ultimate power to control human destiny in the hands of love.”
