William D. Hindy was just twenty-two years old when he was introduced to the teachings of Akumana. It was the early seventies and a great deal of information was beginning to arrive. Channeling certainly was not a highly accepted form of religious medium, especially for a young man raised in the Catholic faith. He wondered how he was going to take that glorious, rich, nourishing food and make it his life. It took Hindy almost forty years to surrender to the Father. In The Caravan of Life, he shares the teachings of Akumana that have been around for more than a thousand years. He covers a variety of topics from evolution and involution to the kingdom of heaven. Hindy discusses how: knowledge serves the purpose of the man-made world, but wisdom serves the purpose of escaping the man-made world; wisdom is the light of the soul; prayer helps reidentify you with your own purpose, your higher self, God; its the nature of divinity to survive, to cultivate, and to bring truth, not destruction; and your spirit, your well-being is cultivated by conscious work, self-conscious evolution. The Caravan of Life presents a journey through the pitfalls of life that leaves you with a profound understanding of who you are in Gods vast universe.

A young boy accompanied his father on his business trip on a caravan train that used the Silk Road to the Far East countries in a past era. There were camels and horses used to pull these trains that were vulnerable to being attacked by outlaws who were in constant search for victims to rob and livestock to take. His mother had died, and while he does not remember her, he does know his aunt that had looked after him when his father left under the benign care of an aged sultan. The young boy had to study with a Greek tutor supplied by the sultan. After a year, news arrived that his father’s caravan was attacked and that there were no survivors. He grows up as a warrior, studying under the sultan’s army leaders and learning the art of war. He thrives on the stories of the Greek heroes of old.

Herein lies a story of a young boy, lost youths, and strategic battle plans all the while being faithful to his surrogate father, the sultan.
