Publisher's summary

Anthony Peake is engaged in one of the most important strands of ontological inquiry of modern times, nothing less than unravelling the Gordian knot that is the mystery of our existence." (Bob Rickard, founder editor of Fortean Times)

Appearing in Greek mythology and popularized by Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy, the Daemon is broadly understood as a guiding spirit which exists as one half of your split self.

In The Daemon: A Guide to Your Extraordinary Secret Self, Anthony Peake proposes that people consist of not one but two separate consciousnesses - everyday consciousness and that of The Daemon, a higher being that seems to possess knowledge of future events. Drawing upon phenomena such as déjà vu and near-death experiences, he explores the ways that our Daemon breaks through into our consciousness and can subconsciously impact upon our decisions.

From the author of Is There Life After Death?, this endlessly fascinating book draws upon the neurology, metaphysics and theology. It also follows the stories of famous figures, including Byron, Geothe, Jean Cocteau, and many others who have "felt a force outside themselves". This radical book will change the way you perceive reality, time, and ultimately yourself.

Thought provoking and honest

Fascinating new theory. Intriguing, well read, and intelligent, the author presents a remarkable case for his idea.
I look forward to much morel

Brilliant

This book turned everything I thought I ever knew on its side. The information I suggest needs to be absorbed slowly. It even made me recall various times in my life, that I could compare with the book. Be extremely open to what you will hear and the tale will evolve.

Case Made


Through careful examination, Peake expertly lays out the case for the Daemon’s consequential attendance throughout history of various figures of note before infusing his theory into his own life, then that of the reader. Listen to this book, then listen to your Daemon.

Great awakening

Great insight and review of scientific data and perspective of our reality and who we really are. The information should be considered by the true student of life and purpose. Defining what spirituality is and needed. Nothing is a coincidence.

Well done. You've taken a multi-dimensional

I truly appreciated the book as it provided answers and explanations to things I have seen, ideas I have contemplated, and questions I am now considering. I am a cannabis smoker and an NLP practitioner, and I would hike while listening. I've heard it three times so thus far. While dense at times (thus requiring multiple sessions), I could dream away from more challenging topics to imagine what was just spoken while coming back at other times when a specific topic or word resonates. Thank you for the time and energy you put into the work.

After listening to this book I bought all of Anthony’s books ( I originally saw him give a speech at the Watkins books YouTube channel and was enthralled.
