Lu Mountain Book12 of the series The Lodging for the Rose (Large-Format Edition - Magazine Style) The novel is fiction, but its logic is not. When being forced to flee 'paradise' the protagonists start a new life in China, out of reach to the West. But China isn't the Golden Shore of Peace where they find tranquility and rest. The Principle of Universal Love widens the challenge into the greater challenge to uplift the world. The protagonists move forward on this front. They do not flinch, nor do they say "it is impossible go further." China unfolds its heart as one of the few countries in the world that still embraces the principle of progress. It sees boundless horizons and reaches for them. The light of universal love that once shone brightly in Europe and later in America, but has dimmed in those places, still glows brightly in China. May we re-awake to this light that we all have, that we are. Here unfolds the hope of the world. It unfolds in the novel as China's gift to humanity, even while the protagonists uplift China. The novel presented here is the final book, Book 12 (Episode 8) of the epic series of novels, The Lodging for the Rose. - Published by Cygni Communications Ltd.
