Have you ever wondered if there is a fundamental reason for most of humanity’s problems? Why have we struggled for so long to deal with issues like inequality, poverty, oppression, corruption, environmental abuse and war?

Why do billions of people continue to allow themselves to be deceived, subjugated and exploited? Why are there so many conflicting versions of morality and spirituality? Realizing Heaven delves into human consciousness in a search for the most rational approaches to such questions.

Humanity has countless ongoing challenges, and Realizing Heaven proposes solutions that are clear—but potentially difficult—personal and societal choices of a moral and spiritual nature.

Change has to start somewhere. Perhaps with you.
