The Prompting: A Novel that Challenges the Assumptions About the Way People Live, Think About Life, Health, the Environment and the Reason for Being

Thomas Schuler was 53 years old, in the prime of his life and at the pinnacle of his career as chief administrator of a major teaching hospital in Canada. He could well afford to indulge in all the benefits of affluence and took full advantage of all the perks in order to open doors and look like a winner. However, underlying this was a growing frustration and a sense of powerlessness and resentment when his efforts to make change were met with resistance.

(PRWEB) March 22, 2008 -- Thomas Schuler was 53 years old, in the prime of his life and at the pinnacle of his career as chief administrator of a major teaching hospital in Canada. He could well afford to indulge in all the benefits of affluence and took full advantage of all the perks in order to open doors and look like a winner. However, underlying this was a growing frustration and a sense of powerlessness and resentment when his efforts to make change were met with resistance.

Suddenly, in the span of 24 short hours, everything shifted. On the very day that he was diagnosed with cancer -- a life-threatening tumour in the breast that needed immediate surgery -- his wife left him to stay with another man in Italy.

Then it may have been fate, or perhaps something else… for after a traffic accident, he found himself in the company of Sidhe, a middle-aged woman with a boundless spirit, a youthful energy and a remarkable zest for life and living. Their chance meeting -- and his spur-of-the-moment decision to accept the invitation to travel with her cross-country -- changed Thomas' life forever. It changed his perspective and beliefs, it changed his goals, and it changed the state of his health: the deadly tumour actually began to shrink as the miles wore on.

As time moved forward, Thomas began to find new purpose and meaning in his life. It was almost as though he had somehow entered a new, other-worldly dimension; the things that he once held as important -- the trappings and dysfunctional concepts of his personal and professional life -- gradually slipped away as he was challenged and loved unconditionally by the mysterious Sidhe.

Beldorai is an advocate of conscious evolution and shows how the healing of our minds, our bodies, and the earth are interrelated. She has created a powerful work of factual fiction. The tale of Thomas and Sidhe becomes a practical guide for humanity as a whole. The author suggests that "we are not born to suffer" and we can awaken to this state as we "let go" of the trappings and attachments of our small thinking mind and reconnect with the "intelligence of interconnectedness".
