The wisdom of Frank the goat man 2

‘THE WISDOM OF FRANK THE GOAT MAN 2’ is another joyful parable-in-verse, layered with meaning. Like the first book, it weaves physics, spirituality, and philosophy into the main character’s adventures in such a way that both adults and children can enjoy it with ease.

The story follows the adventures of Emily’s eight-year-old son, Jack, as he enters an array of escapades cleverly devised by an old Chinese sage, Frank.

The tale centres around Frank’s plan to help spark the beginnings of a spiritual awakening, which involves Jack having to solve some curious riddles. Emily, Mollie, and next-door neighbour, Jeannie, all have as much fun as Jack with the code breaking. But no one is quite prepared for the exciting, eye opening, and magical event that occurs when Jack’s attention is directed upwards towards the stars, where something very special and unexpected is waiting to show itself to him.

THE WISDOM OF FRANK THE GOAT MAN 3

Narrated by Pat the farm cat.

The story continues with Emily at her farm, as we follow the tensions and rising stress of her neighbour, Jeannie.

Jeannie gets herself worked up over a new person in the village who has a loud and disruptive presence. Emily gently persuades her to be less judgemental and more accepting, and to see events through the other person’s eyes. This stimulates change, with some very interesting results.

Running alongside these unfolding events is the progression of Emily’s spiritual journey, as her Tao orientated Spirit Guide, Frank, devises one last test for her. If she passes this, then she will have attained the highest accolade, that of sage and Master herself.

A story full of interesting characters and valuable life lessons, as seen through the eyes of the farm cat, Pat.

The wisdom of Frank the goat man

THE WISDOM OF FRANK THE GOAT MAN is a parable about kindness, compassion, and the Universe, written for both teenagers and adults.

This wonderful tale follows the journey of a little girl called Emily, as seen through the eyes of her Shetland pony ‘Poppy’ who narrates the story. We are shown Emily’s fascinating encounters with a curiously alluring elderly Chinese neighbour, known simply as ‘Frank the goat man’. Frank, a Master Philosopher, thoroughly captivates Emily with his interesting and diverse conversations as they chat over their shared fence line when she rides past on Poppy each day.

When Emily reaches adulthood, she feels ‘off course and lost’. Here, the story takes an interesting twist, where after many years of absence Frank and Poppy reappear to help Emily find her way.

BLISS EXCERPT

PURPOSE

 

What is our purpose,

why are we here,

to experience love

and to learn from our fear.

 

To shut off the noise,

hearts open wide,

to live life fully

with inner love recognised.

 

To utilise intuition,

align with life’s flow,

a shift from a question

to a place where we know.

BLISS EXCERPT

SAFE HOLDING

 

See every occasion

as potential unfolding,

a miraculous happening

released from safe holding.

Bliss Two

Bliss Two explores through the flow of poems the subtle hidden layers of the universe waiting to be discovered in the stillness of a quiet mind.

You will also delve into nature as poet Debs Carling shares what can be learned from a fluffy white cloud, a sloth, and even a buzzing bee. Find simple truths in short poems like “Silence” in which Carling commands, “To master the space you are in, silence the place deep within.”

This is more than a poetry book; it is a wonderfully insightful journey into the essence of oneness and mastery of inner peace.

BLISS TWO EXCERPT

A STRONG WIND BLOWS

 
A strong wind blows,

heaven knows where all the stillness goes,

it retreats into the minds of a select few,

who offer it safe harbour until the storm passes through,

then gently released it does weightlessly sit

waiting with grace for those searching for it.

BLISS TWO EXCERPT

COMPASSION

 
Be kind,

walk in the other man’s shoes,

accept he has differing views,

even though you could crush him,

annihilate and win,

for this confrontation choose

COMPASSION,

and just quietly and graciously lose.
