Glass Barriers

The novel is fiction. It deals with a paradigm shift that begins when discoveries of science pull us up to a higher level of thinking about our world and ourselves, and then pull our social marriages up to that level behind it. Surprising things can happen then. Suddenly the barriers that stood for ages become transparent and breakable. Here a story begins that unfolds in India, but it is not rooted in India’s long spiritual history. Rather it is rooted in a 19th Century American discovery of spiritual science that uplifts even India’s ancient truths to a greater profundity. ‘Breaking’ the glass barriers is actually more a scientific process of seeing through them, by which the barriers become dissolved. They exist in many domains; including the social, civil, moral, as well as the romantic, sexual, and erotic.
