Fantastic read!

This is an extraordinary read on the life of a "contemporary" mystic. I highly recommend it.

Extraordinary book for anyone into mysticism or esoterica

This truly exceptional and fascinating book delves into explaining karma, past lives, spiritual healing, going out-of-body (including how an advanced enough person adept at this skill could appear in more than one place simultaneously or the infamous 'doppelganger' phenomenon), the various layers of the spiritual realms, the manipulation of energy and matter, and much more in terms the lay or common person can understand.

If you're into qigong, chi manipulation or research into the same, mysticism of any kind, the paranormal, spiritual fulfillment or development or the like you may well find this a must-read. It is not a tutorial nor a "how-to" instructional tome for developing the abilities demonstrated by the subject of the book, so don't expect that, but in a field where so many books and videos on the subject don't live up to their title, Magus of Strovolos is an extraordinary, enlightening work- one of the few that explains the how's and why's of many esoteric practices and beliefs.

a deeper view of the world we inhabit

I have often advised young people to travel the world, not as a tourist but for extended visits to immerse themselves in other cultures. If nothing else, the traveler encounters a diversity of beings and ways of living that change, to a greater or lesser degree, how one sees his or her normal life. New doors of perception open, new senses are enlivened, and when one returns "home" it is never quite the same as before. And that's what this book does to the spiritual or simply curious traveler.

Through young Markides' eyes, we stay at the home of a true magus, that is, one who understands how the life force operates beyond our normal perceptions. For the magus, it's somewhat of a workaday world of dealing with elemental beings, karmic energies (which he sometimes consciously "takes on" as a gift of mercy to others), and other forces of which we normal people are most often quite unaware. A magus, or magician, may be black (harmful) or white (helpful). In this case, get to see how a conscientious, helpful healer operates in a commonplace setting, surrounded by regular people. No pointy star-spangled hats or boiling pots of newts and goat hooves here. You'd walk right by him on the street.

This is a fascinating story sincerely chronicled by the author. We're given a peek behind the curtain of miracles and get a sense of how they happen, of what it takes (beyond the typical waving of a wand or sprinkling of stardust) to restore balance and healing where chaos and illness have prevailed. For anyone interested in the idea of natural or psychic healing, and to see how it happens in plausible, everyday circumstances, you'll really appreciate this story. Especially in this age of preposterous medical costs and the pharmaceutical shroud blanketing our health care system, it's encouraging to encounter a practice of real healing knowledge that's not only priceless, but free.
