pp. [4] 185.paperback edition.”The Book of Mirdad, a much loved classic tale which has touched the hearts of so many readers, continues to show new generations how it is possible to expand one’s consciousness, to uncover God in man by dissolving man’s sense of duality. “Man is a god in swaddling-bands. Time is a waddling-band. Space is a swaddling-band. Flesh is a swaddling-band, and likewise all the senses and the things perceivable therewith.” Mikhail Naimy, a contemporary and friend of Gibran, weaves legend, mysticism, philosophy and poetry in a powerful and spiritual allegory which tells of the visit of the mysterious stranger, Mirdad, to the remote mountain monastery, the Ark. The culmination and indeed the message is that Mirdad’s own Ark, is the Ark of Holy Understanding, which will bring mankind through another deluge, greater than Noah’s, when heaven will be revealed on earth.”
