“Love is all-powerful. Hate can never withstand love. It is like a friable rock that gets worn away by repeated bathings of the ocean waves. A core group of people in a society dedicated to meditation and prayer, fully embracing love and acceptance, cannot for long be held off by the forces of hate and oppression.”
Richard Dietrich Maddox's writing focuses on the search for permanent happiness, the goal of finding paradise on earth, the attainment of human Enlightenment. His work, though fiction, attempts to convey the profound spiritual Truth passed on to humanity by Enlightened Masters. Maddox approaches spiritual wisdom from a Western level of experience, presenting characters to whom readers can easily relate, offering situations in which readers might well have found themselves. His work offers, in a style which those living in the West will find understandable, the possibility of blissful existence.
