The Time Tunnel: A Tale for All Ages and for the Child in You
Sometimes it is fun to learn complex ideas and principles through stories. That’s exactly what world-renowned spiritual teacher Donald Walters, now known as Kriyananda, does in this book. Using the technique of storytelling, Kriyananda shares timeless ideas and techniques he learned from his guru, Paramhansa Yogananda. Once can wonder how much of the story is a mixture of fiction with the non-fiction. While exploring in Rumania, two boys named Donny and Bobby discover a ruined laboratory with a mysterious tunnel. Entering into it, their bodies shrink and they emerge into a beautiful countryside and meet Hansel, whose father invented the “time tunnel.” They learn how to encase themselves in time-light spheres and they visit the Middle Ages, ancient Greece, and Egypt, while also forwarding into the future. The story is a good one and filled with knowledge about history and human behavior. This would be a great way to introduce children of all ages to some great spiritual truths while also entertaining them. It’s a fun read while offering deep insights.
