Not since the time of Martin Luther, has one man alone
laid the groundwork for what might be most appropriately
designated as a spiritual and religious revolution.
Had Martin Luther possibly lived in our time of such
noble scientific discoveries and above all, our almost
total access to the seemingly infinite amount of present
as well as historical information that seemingly lies
at our fingertips on that more than infamous computer,
then the very true spirit of one, Martin Luther, might
just as well be known to all as J. Lamah Walker.
Dr. Walker, who prefers to be simply called by
his middle name of “Lamah” or even “J. Lamah”, has only
recently finished his life's literary manuscripts on the
Age of Reality. He had opted to put off any
publication of his dedicated works until he had finished
all six books on the Age of Reality along with an
autobiography, mostly because he simply did not want to
be burdened with the demands of some very anxious
literary agent or publisher trying to meet some unknown
deadlines.
Lamah had chosen to publish first what he feels
to be the least objectionable subject matter to the
conservative establishment, entitled "Shamans of San
Damiano." One Baptist minister said after reading this
particular book, that it was one of the best takes on
his theology that he had ever encountered and had asked
Lamah to please consider writing a sequel. As this
minister put it, “I am already missing this very unique
cast of characters.”
This being only the second of the seven to have
been written, it was impossible for Lamah to put off the
writing of the, then, remaining five.
Lamah being the very serious and dedicated academic that
he has always aspired to be, and with four degrees, his
first book, The Illiberal Manifesto, is written
in that academic model, and as such is the broad
statement of the real and serious problems within our
own Judeo-Christian Culture. Lamah feels that many of
these same problems are just as likely to exist beyond
our own guarded borders that separate us from the rest
of the world.
In Western American culture we are already experiencing
a big change in the way that we all view ourselves when
we are now asked, as part of some personal profile,
“Of what Religion are You?” The choices have had to
expand for the numbers of individuals
that decree and truly understand that, “I am spiritual,
but most certainly not religious.” |
Lamah, most simply
contends that the reality of these
changes is just a further proof that, “This newer and
legitimate option is only just another symptom of the advance
of this Age of Reality.”
It is also proposed by Lamah to recreate a viable
alternative for these “spiritual” individuals in that
original exacting model of just what Jesus of Nazareth
had more than once proposed when he first elaborated the
the very foundation for his one and only commandment as the only
true basis for the Feast of Agapé and, of course,
experiencing that great joy found in one’s life. “There
is no need to create a new religion; we just need to
return to a good time and place of honoring Jesus’ only
request of practicing the Feast of Agapé.”
There is another recognizable strong indication of
this Age of Reality; the very humbling fact that a good
and firm proportion of Americans had cast their vote in the
last presidential election, clearly for a president that
is a man of color.
And, it was Lamah who had already entertained many
of his own family and friends with the timely
celebration of the 16th birthday of this Age of
Reality. It was held
October 31, 2008,
at his home, called San Damiano, located in Cedar Crest,
NM. Anyone need only read the titles of the seven
books, to have an indication of just why Lamah is so
concerned and passionate to write and share
this Age of Reality: 1. The Illiberal Manifesto,
2. Shamans of San Damiano 3. Interview with Jesus in the Hot Tub, 4.
Political Socio-Psychology of Religion, 5.
Phoenix Rising from the Ashes of God, 6. Age of
Reality: A Manual for Living in an Age of Love, and
lastly, 7. Father of the Age of Reality: An
Autobiography.
This first publication titled, Shamans of San Damiano,
was published and released on
July 21, 2010 and that date was not only be a grand and fun
celebration for the publication of Lamah’s first book,
it was also Lamah’s own sixty-eighth birthday of his
living in this marvelous Garden of Eden. When Lamah uses
the term, Garden of Eden, he feels as though it
encompasses the entire scope of this small planet, for
all of its great and beautiful diversity in both the
plant and animal kingdoms that are, in their totality,
the superb gifts of nature that is ever imaginable.
