    This is the third book in the series of Influences from the Inner Domain. All three books tell a story of the often-overlooked component of every being: their spirit domain, and why it is such a necessary component of all beings. The spirit domain is important for many reasons. It keeps us centered and on track through our journey around life's circular path. It orchestrates and coordinates the internal workings, communications, and for most of the existence of beings was the primary influence to the mind component. It provided the mind with materials from its stores of knowledge and experience to influence and guide it, since the beginning of time. Unlike the other components of a being, spirits never die. They are reassigned to a newborn, retaining all they have gathered through time to support past, present, and future beings. Spirits, from their domain, also influenced motion and movement from the being's physical component. This gave the being fuller flexibility, dexterity, and movement capabilities. Most important of all, it's in the spirit domain that life itself for each being is centered and originates. This last book in the series tells of how the spirit domain's influence diminishes over time and of the other internal components and influence becoming the more dominant drivers. It tells how the cost of this loss is great. As depicted in this third book the spirit domain continues to strive to contribute to the being's existence, but is much hampered through the fourth and final quadrant of life's circle to retain some contribution and an identity in determining who we are, how we act, and why we behave the way we do. There is still goodness and evil in this part of the stories, but more subtle from the spirits and their domains, and stronger from other influences from the being's inner domain. The magic and mystical begins to dissipate. The beings and the civilization prepare for the closing of life' circle. New ones will soon begin and follow.

    A universal need of all warm blooded mammals is: to love and be loved (in return). Paradoxically, in our modern, fast paced, society, it is a need which often goes unfulfilled. This is attested to/evinced by data on percentages of the population living alone and unattached: 50% alone, in Canada, where I live in a retirement community. Before industrial society came into being, in days of feudalism, the problem situation facing humanity was characterized/portrayed as being one of battles between rival lords of manors, vying for supremacy, and the exploits of knight errant employed in their service. The best simile/metaphor for this type of fighting in feudal society, was seen to be that of an "e;obstacle course"e;, where knight errantry often involved knights in white armortaking on first, one opposing knight in black armor, and then another, and then another in a jousting match on a field of battle. Thus the obstacle course analogy: successful knights would overcome all obstacles, i.e. all rival knights in the way of a victory for their lord of the manor. Each knight would be identified by distinctive insignia/coat of arms that was unique to his lord, that way each knight could tell friends from foes. This was an exciting but dangerous life, and knights were the heroes of the story, as in the Legend of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, or in John Bunyan's Christian book, Pilgrim's Progress. Contrast this with the metaphor for life and living, under modern industrial society, where there is a widespread feeling of isolation even in the midst of many. What is the reason for this feeling of isolation and alienation? Could it be that it stems from the nature of work or the workplace (interacting alone with a computer screen) - or the rules and laws governing interpersonal relations of people living in communities (a don't touch me society)? - or, sometimes, over-reliance on "e;passive"e; forms of entertainment which connects people to the medium, but disconnects people from each other? Is there any metaphor for the new problem situation facing people in our modern, industrial society, namely: alone and lonely? You may have heard of the story of the famous shipwrecked sailor, Robinson Crusoe (book by Daniel Defoe), marooned all by himself, on an uncharted desert island? Who made the best of his situation by building things to satisfy all his physical economic needs? Much like we have built an economy that satisfies all our physical needs. Crusoe, did not stop there, he went on to satisfy his spiritual needs, by noting all the marvels of nature, and narrow escapes from storms, that made him believe that providence was on his side, converting him to Christianity. Then, providence did him another good turn. A cannibal, by the name of Man Friday, was fortuitously left on the island, by an accident of fate, and Robinson, now had a companion, whom he educated into Christianity from his heathen/uncivilized ways. The functional role that Man Friday fulfilled for Robinson - his best friend - in many ways bears a resemblance to the the "e;role"e; of pets - especially that most loyal of pets, the dog - play as friends for people, in isolated modern society. If Man Friday was Robinson Crusoe's loyal best friend, then could we not with justification, say, that for people, esp. isolated ones, dogs likewise serve as man's best friends and loyal companions? Thus our need to love and be loved, even when we are denied "e;the real thing"e; - a person to call our own - has a way of "e;going underground"e; and finding the next best substitute for the real thing - which oftener than not - turns out to be a beloved pet (s). Dog may not be quite as desirable as a human partner, but given that so many people have no human partners, dog has, in effect, become: man's best friend!It is to be hoped that we humans reciprocate by also being: dog's best friend! Knowing that genuine love is always a two-way street!

    As an observational writer, Throne tells the American story woven together, by my account, from the waning days of the great depression to the era of Vietnam's extravagance. Voiced and performed by a plethora of actors' who details Americas transforming events. What is fashioned is an American population both angelic and diabolical too often unable to discern one from the other. Americans a pampered people for whom more is never enough, easily roused to anxiety and reconciled to the paradoxical belief that God loves America but Satan keeps us safe.

    Are you comfortable living on the surface of life, or do you strive to explore life's enigmatic deeper core? Are you conscious of the possible immense insignificance of life when viewed as a tiny splinter in the fabric of a multi-universe some astrophysicists speak of? Can that realization be grounded in an existential sound sense that might make for communal coherence?How do you discover truth? Does a probing deep introspection help? How important is it to understand one's Self? How severely do our existential confinements restrict our ability to grasp enlarging awareness? Is higher honesty something mankind is capable of?Exercising our God-given capacity for Reason may be the only outlet available to us for escaping the indited cloisters and confinements of our human condition. Becoming a pioneer in the forest of doubt may be the only way to attain to a newer vision of human reality.
