Lucifer Morningstar: A Philosophical Love Story


Book Description

With a preface by the Devil we are introduced to the love story of Dracula and Mina, seen with the eyes of a philosopher. We learn that the nature of the Devils game is the paradoxical. This is revealed when we guess that the Devils proper name is Lucifer Morningstar, which means Bringer of Light. We hear about the Devils double incarnation in the pain-bodies of Dracula and Mina. In the search for the unification of their love we undertake a Heros Journey through the Earth-Moon Kingdom of the Vampire. Like Vergil in Dantes The Divine Comedy our guide will be Karen Blixen. In this book Morten Tolboll is using popular culture to shed light on his own pain-body and the dark ancient powers he has struggled with for over two decades. In this way the book is an anologistic portrait of the experiential background for his teaching Meditation as an Art of Life. The book is an inquiry into the nature of suffering and love.
