Destiny's Journey is a memoir reconstructed partly from notebooks that Döblin kept from the time he worked in the French Ministry of Information in the spring of 1940 and partly written without notes in Los Angeles where he took refuge during the Second World War. It tells the personal and generational story of the flight of Jewish and anti-Nazi intellectuals from Europe to America, their fear and frustration, isolation, and inability to work. Döblin’s story differs from that of other Jewish intellectuals and artists in that his family converts to Catholicism in Los Angeles. Unlike most of them, he returns to Europe as an officer with the French forces and works on denazifying German literature. The conversion narrative bridges the departure from and return to Europe. To critic John Simon, “the latter part of the book often reads like a shrill piece of Christian homiletics. But even this is not without interest, as it traces the transformation of an anarchic outsider into a dogmatic insider.” “The first part of ‘Destiny's Journey’ [about] Döblin's departure from Paris [in] 1940... is magisterial: acidly observed, saturated in telling detail, grimly comic and harrowing... with an exemplary introduction by Peter Demetz... an important, nourishing book” — John Simon, The New York Times

Desy was part Organic, part Genetic. She had been created in a lab, and looked nothing like her family. She hated the fact that she looked different from her brothers. She grew up listening to her brothers tell a family legend that had been handed down through many generations. The legend promised that someday a brilliant orb of light would appear. And, on that day a mystical transformation would take place. A selected ancestor of days long forgotten would find a special person, and together they would travel to a place beyond tomorrow. Now, Desy's world was about to come to an end. It had been abused for too many generations, and there was no longer any hope for a future. As Desy sat and cried under a scraggly tree, she unknowingly wrapped her fingers around a shiny stone fragment. Suddenly, her world spun and disappeared, leaving her swirling inside a purple mist. When she stopped spinning, she found herself just beyond tomorrow.

We are intuitively interested in the history and future of human civilization. Most people sense that the distant future will not be determined by fantastical circumstances sometimes depicted in contemporary Science Fiction, but rather by decisions made by us and our descendants. Destiny's Obligation is a realistic tale of intense drama on Earth and in Space, set in the 29th century, when typical human fallibility and selfish territorial interests have destroyed civilization in most places. The principals are part of a group of space travelers who return to Earth after a 600-year voyage to a nearby star system. What these descendants of the original explorers find is as much a surprise to them as it will be to the reader. They cannot leave and must first deal with the aggressive inhabitants of a large earth-satellite. They visit Earth eventually and play a significant role in defeating the feuds that are threatening the survival of human society everywhere.

Every one of us has a destiny. Writing this book is part of my destiny that places knowledge among the priorities of my work. This text is dedicated to what the Masters of Light of high level have been transmitting to me for around three years. Its main feature is to make man understand that we are at a moment in our history in which we need to return to true knowledge, or more so, to a way of seeing and interpreting the reality of creation which does not start solely from mans point of view, but from a wider vision which comes from the spirit world. This book talks about a re-opening to a different way of knowing and begins to retrieve some aspects of this true knowledge. Among them, certain tools of knowledge shall be rediscovered such as the voyages of the mind in a non-rational setting or intuition or the recognition and interpretation of signs which a wider reality continually shows us. The main features of human knowledge will be analyzed, its limits, its openings and the urgings it is subjected to in order to continuously exceed itself (miracles, the sense of mystery). It attains the understanding of what should be true knowledge, the use of the symbol and the possibility of fitting into a time which is beyond the linear time we are so used to. Some aspects of this knowledge such as the mental and energetic dynamics of thought, a new concept of truth, a new concept of the relationship between good and evil, love, death, union and path, will be introduced. This book should entice us to intuit the existence of a much vaster Creation than the one we are used to and to lay the basis for a more correct interpretation of it.

Destiny has placed knowledge among the priorities of my work. This text, the third in a series, is dedicated to what some very high level Masters of Light have been transmitting to me for several years. It represents a chapter of my voyage into knowledge; knowledge that comes from a wider view of worldly things than that which is normally available to man, new knowledge but at the same time ancient. Here I approach the study of three ancient artifacts. I analyze the famous Zodiac of Dendera in Egypt, a very much studied but at the same time misunderstood bas-relief that I later renamed the Great Message of Dendera, for the incredible meaning that I found in it. Then I approach the study of the Sumerian Weld Blundell prism, a terracotta prism with cuneiform writing, the translation of which has left all the researchers who have been challenging themselves with its interpretation confused to say the least: it is an absurd list of multi-millennial antediluvian kings. Finally, I analyze a little known monument of Copacabana, on Lake Titicaca in Bolivia, called the Horca del Inca, which I then renamed the Antenna of Copacabana. The analysis of these findings initially took place with the attitude of the meticulous researcher, but soon began to flow towards the search for the general meaning of the work analyzed. A meaning that, partly supported by logical considerations and partly by an entirely new research approach that we can call the historical-intuitive method, points out that ancient man was endowed with knowledge about the meaning and purpose of Creation much more advanced than that, which is at our disposal today. The rediscovery of this knowledge and of the method of obtaining it is the only possibility that remains to prevent our planet from being destroyed by humans who have lost track of what their purpose is and which direction to take.
