Jeffrey’s fascinating conversation with brilliant author Peter Canova.
From the time Peter first experienced phenomena such as telepathy, remote viewing, intuitive medical readings, and psychic healing, Peter has spent much of his life seeking to understand the forces that link humanity together at an un seenlevel.
Peter’s former businesses—luxury hotel development, shipping, and import/exporting—carried him around the world, giving him an insider’s view of international politics, finance, and the mentality of foreign cultures.
Athens, Rome, London, the Middle East, Thailand, and Africa provided the crucibles that melded business, political, and economic intrigues in Peter’s experience, giving him real life stories that could make best sellers in and of themselves.
In each of these places, Peter met a variety of spiritual figures who appeared in his life to confirm his conviction that spirit transcends the religious beliefs that tend to divide people.
Peter had an affinity for writing, and in the late 1990’s he acted on this talent winning a First Literary Prize for his very first short story at the highly respected Santa Barbara’s Writer’s Conference in California.
Shortly thereafter, Peter took first place out of 500 entries in Francis Ford Coppola’s online Zoetrope Magazine for his first publicly circulated short story, The Blood of our Departed.
Peter continued his track record of writing excellence with the publication of Pope Annalisa, which immediately won the Nautilus and Independent Publishers Awards in quick succession followed by the National Best Book Award.
In Pope Annalisa, Peter explores an ancient spiritual tradition which cut across not only Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, but also the so-called pagan mystery schools of ancient days.
With twenty-five years of voluminous research behind him in both mainstream and alternative religious/spiritual studies, with a particular interest in early Christianity, Peter is a leading expert on Gnostic and other ancient spiritual traditions.
He travels the country as a speaker on such topics as parallels between Gnostic mysticism and quantum physics, the Sacred Feminine, Mary Magdalene and the lost women of the Bible, and the secret teachings of Jesus.
Peter’s skills helped him break down these complex spiritual themes into simple and entertaining fiction, and the result is Pope Annalisa – a combination of this research and information channeled in his own meditations.
His hope is that this crossover novel, part thriller and part spiritual wisdom text, will point to a new paradigm transcending the dead end dogmas of religious, cultural and gender differences that have caused so much suffering in the human community.
We think you will find this amazing conversation with Peter a remarkable excursion into the information that made The Da Vinci Code so powerful and take that thrust to an entirely new level of depth. Peter’s skills and passion are quite evident in this conversation that is sure to further illuminate this understanding of our shared religious traditions in the western hemisphere.
