Synopsis

Human beings are not born to creep and craw on Earth like caterpillars. They are born to transform into butterflies and become free. Through intention, learning, and wisdom, this freedom is possible for each one of us.Throughout history, the wisdom of Zarathustra has spread and impacted a variety of different belief systems. His wisdom has inspired and guided Greeks, Romans, Jews, Muslims, and Christians. Before the time of Zarathustra, people worshiped many gods and goddesses. They worshiped different gods for rain, prosperity, health, sunshine, earthquakes, or floods. Zarathustra challenged the old tradition of the Indo-European religions that was practiced before him and created an awareness and movement that eventually became the dominant religion in Persia. From the Zarathustra’s perspective, everyone has choices in life, and every choice comes with a consequence. The way of Zarathustra is a guide to understanding and making choices that lead to freedom.Central to Zarathustra’s teaching is the philosophy “good thoughts, good words, good deeds.” That is the way to life and freedom.There is more to being human than just existing. In these pages, you will find ways to think about your purpose and your existence from the perspective of body, mind, and spirit.

This guy is so freaking arrogant it's hard to get through the book. I wanted to read the story from his perspective so I made it through eventually. There are definitely mixed views on his 'heroism' throughout the P-3 7community, but it's hard to say what you would do if you were in his shoes. I'd s......more

Goodreads review by Kathy on May 07, 2023

More like 3.5 stars. It’s a cool story. But choppy and a bit slow for the first two thirds of the book. I understand the need for the back story, it gives us knowledge of his training, but it was slow. Also, I might have given it higher ratings if it wasn’t so technically over my head. I don’t know......more

While I have no connection to the military (aside from my ongoing respect and gratitude), I found this book to be a captivating read. The detail-by-detail description of the disaster was riveting. The overarching theme of honor/character will stay with me.......more
