Resumen del Editor

From the best-selling author of Communion comes the mysterious true story of how an unknown visitor barged into Streiber's hotel room late one night and imparted extraordinary lessons in personal development and man's fate that challenge us to rethink every assumption about the meaning of life.

At 2:30 in the morning of June 6, 1998, Whitley Streiber was awakened by someone knocking on his hotel-room door. A man came in, and everything he said was life-altering. This is the unsettling and ultimately enlightening narrative of what happened that night. Strieber was never really sure who this strange and knowing visitor was - a "Master of Wisdom"? A figure from a different realm of consciousness? A preternaturally intelligent being? He called him the Master of the Key. The one thing of which Strieber was certain is that both the man and the encounter were real.

The main concern of the Master of the Key is to save each of us from self-imprisonment. "Mankind is trapped," the stranger tells Strieber. "I want to help you spring the trap." In a sweeping exchange between Strieber and the stranger - which takes the form of a classical student-teacher dialogue in pursuit of inner understanding - the unknown man presents a lesson in human potential, esoteric psychology, and man's fate. He illuminates why man has been caught in a cycle of repeat violence and self-destruction - and the slender, but very real, possibility for release.

In its breadth and intimacy, The Key is on par with contemporary metaphysical traditions, such as A Course in Miracles, or even with the dialogues of modern wisdom teachers, such as D. T. Suzuki and Carl Jung.

Astounding, Life Altering Information!

In a world full of confusion, comes the truth buried as the needle in the haystack. While "some" of you may roll your eyes because of the nature of some of Whitley's other books, to so with this one may be a true tragedy. The information in this book has the potential, if you allow it, to open your heart and mind to the nature and reality of that which we are entwined. I urge you from the wholeness of my heart to at least read this book, but I highly recommend the audio version. Gregory Itzin does a phenomenal job of narrating and he seems to pull in an energy that is very palpable. I myself have read somewhere around 300 books on encounters of every kind, paranormal, channeled information, and different occults which I feel gives me a reasonable knowledge on the subjects. All that I can say, is this book is different and it is profound. To miss out on this opportunity to grow would be tragic. I send out my love and wish you all peace.

very interesting

Always look forward to Whitley's experiences.
W ish that he would read his own audiobook though.
had to slow this reader down in speed.

Left Me Yearning for More

This book left me wanting more. It had profound messages. I was left changed and hoping I won't forget. Its easy to forget when you live your life by societies rules. Go to work, pay for a mortgage, raise a family, pay your taxes and save for your retirement. I've been yearning to know more and I could feel there's more. We are being distracted of the truth. I'll keep seeking and maybe one day we all will wake up...

Exceptionally good book

It is a startling and groundbreaking book. Definitely worth a read and make up your own opinion

MAGICAL

Whitley Strieber is an amazing writer. His words envelope you in a blanket of joy. His story is magical. It’s complex and layered information that doesn’t always makes sense. BUT when it does, it changes you at an atomic and fundamental level. There’s definitely a hefty truth that is unexpected. A sound in his words that ring true in your heart. Read it, it will change you for the good.
