This book was previously released as Recovering from the 2012 Disappointment. In this re-released version, the author has updated the title in order to bring the timeliness of the title into sync with the present time, and he has added new additional text within the book since the first release. This second edition volume contains a Foreword by Kacy Ryan, providing her own valuable insights into the material. This book is designed to wake people up from the illusions of false prophecies and is a preliminary attempt to lead those who can, to move past the need for pinning their hopes on prophetic prognostications. This volume also redirects and explains the primary 9 Virtues of Buddha in order to illustrate how far modern institutional Buddhism has strayed from the original tenets of what Buddha actually taught, which were in fact very profound second cognition teachings. In its final chapters, the author issues a wake-up call for those who feel that they have some kind of mission on this planet at this time, describing what that mission is and providing motivation to step into that role. Although only a short presentation, the information in this volume is an important companion volume to The Evolution of Consciousness series.
