About the Book

This work, one of the most important and practical ones, written by Dr. Roche de Coppens is an up-to-date version of The Invisible Temple (published by Llewellyn some 20 years ago). It looks at the present crisis in the family, links it with the spiritual dimension, and offers a vision and suggestions of where the family may be going and what might bring about its true revival. To do so, we must recognize its various aspects and functions and link it with spiritual work and the awakening of spiritual consciousness. Its central theme is: how to achieve eternal relationships in a temporal world refocusing our attention to what constitutes true or “essential” wealth and how to achieve it: enter the ”school of love” and learn how to express it on the vertical and horizontal dimensions for this is how we will create a “Noah’s Ark” for our times.


About the Author

Peter Roche de Coppens has dedicated more than 50 years of his life and all of his inner and outer resources to the study of spirituality and the awakening of spiritual consciousness. This he applied to sociology, psychology, psychotherapy, education and finally healthcare and medicine. It was Prayer, which he learned from Saints and Sages as well as his own research that helped him heal from a severe motorcycle accident in his early twenties. This led him to study different medical approaches and paradigms to finally systematically introduce the spiritual dimension and consciousness to bring about a new and more integral healthcare paradigm. With degrees in sociology, anthropology and psychotherapy, Dr. Roche de Coppens has taught for more than 35 years at East Stroudsburg University of Pennsylvania where he is still active as a Professor Emeritus. He also taught at other universities, including the Sorbonne (Paris), McGill (Montreal) and the University of Bari (Bari, Italy). He was a spiritual consultant for the United Nations and now is still active as a spiritual consultant for Guna, Italy. He has authored more than 80 books and numerous articles in English, French and Italian.
