Timothy F. Gardner is born under the astrological sign of Cancer. The astrological sign of Cancer denotes intellect, creativity, intuition, and spiritual discernment. Being born under this sign, it is of no wonder that his interest in spiritualism and the study of eastern philosophy would begin at an early age. His forty-plus years of study and practice in the areas of eastern philosophy, theosophy, theology, the esoteric teachings of spiritualism, mysticism, occultism and metaphysics has afforded him an in-depth understanding of the concepts of world religion and its erroneous interpretations that perpetuate bondage, rather than enlightenment and spiritual liberation.
He is an ardent follower of the teachings and life works of Father G.W. Hurley, founder of the Universal Hagar's Spiritual Churches Association, whom this author believes is the Spiritual Leader or Avatar of the Aquarian Age.
In regard to this book, the manuscript has been an intense labor of love - 32 years in the making. The book was revealed in a vision in the Spring of 1980 while he was on a 40-Day spiritual fast. At which time he was told by the Spirit of Father Hurley to, "read and write what I will teach you." Every aspect of this book is spiritually significant, including the release date that coincides with the 12-21-12 "end of the world" or "end of the age" predictions and prophecies of the ancient prophets and astronomers heralding the time of humanity's evolution toward true spiritual realization. After its compilation the manuscript was housed among the authors books and papers,and as 12/21/12 approached the author felt an inner prompting from the Spirit that the time was now to release this manuscript. Welcome to the dawn.
