Product Description
2012: Crossing the Bridge to the Future is an engaging personal narrative through the author’s apprenticeship with master astrologer William Lonsdale who teaches him how to access a source of great power and creativity buried within the human soul.
The book begins in August 1987 on the slopes of Mount Shasta in Northern California as Borax witnesses the Harmonic Convergence, a spiritual and astrological event sparking a 26-year countdown to 2012, the year that marks the “end of history” in the Mayan calendar. Signs indicate that a “major energy shift” is occurring, a turning point in Earth’s collective karma powerful enough to change the global perspective of humankind.
Borax’s mountaintop experiences compel him to seek solutions to his personal turmoil. He meets Lonsdale and together they launch a mystery school to study how the twenty-five-year period between 1987 and 2012 can be used for a cosmic purging of negativity to release humanity’s core forces and restore universal balance. En route, Borax and his fellow students discover truths about life after death, karma, reincarnation, past lives, human evolution, and the purpose of our existence on earth. In the tradition of The Teachings of Don Juan, Carlos Castaneda’s tales of his shamanic master, 2012: Crossing the Bridge to the Future is a gripping sorcerer’s apprentice story driven by mystical forces, encouraging readers to expand their everyday awareness and challenge their fundamental beliefs about their place in the universe.

superb storytelling April 18, 2008

What makes Borax' story so compelling is its sheer readability. He has invested his personal journey with the vivid atmospherics, piquant characterizations and narrative drive of a fine novel. Borax tells a superb story--one that even a diehard skeptic like me can read with unqualified pleasure.
 More than 2012 May 8, 2008

In a way I'm sorry the book was titled 2012 since it seems like it's much more than that and may just get lumped in with all the other books on that topic. It's a wonderful condensation of the teachings of Ellias Lonsdale, someone I"ve worked with over the years, and am so glad to see his ideas in print like this. Whether you "believe" in 2012 or not, Ellias has thought provoking things to say that can help anyone go a little deeper into themselves and open up to a different way of being. The book really captures the flavor of his teachings well, and the exciting part is if you like what's there, Ellias is alive, well, and still doing readings with people so that you can personalize the message in this book as it applies to you.
I recommend the book for anyone wanting to open their mind to new ideas about what it takes to come fully alive in this world today.

2012: Crossing the Bridge to the Future is part biography, part autobiography, and wholly about spiritual journeys. It begins with the author's experience on Mount Shasta during the beginning of the Harmonic Convergence in 1987 and continues on from there. The bulk of the book contains conversations and lessons with the man who is now known as Ellias Lonsdale.
Both Lonsdale and Borax have poignant things to say as they impart their observations about themselves, each other, and our world. The conversations and sessions with Lonsdale cover a wide range of topics and the book ends up being Borax's way of spreading the word of how the universe is connected and gives us a peek at how things work. Also covered is what each of us need to do in order to fully participate and partake of the energies that will be released during the Age of Aquarius, which begins in 2012.
This book is not so much about prophecy as it is about possibility. There are no dire predictions of calamity here. There are general instructions about what we need to achieve, individually, so as to affect our people and guide everybody toward a more harmonious existence in the largest terms possible. If you're a skeptic, this will not provide any sort of proof to you. If you're a believer, there will be something in here you can take away and apply to your own life. This is very much worth the time to read and re-visit from time to time. There is so much information in here, you'll need to come back to it time and again.
Riveting! A must-read! May 23, 2008

Wow! I devoured Mark's book in a few days. It was hard to put down! I even put off bathroom breaks due to being so absorbed with the story! Between Mark's personal story woven with the teachings of Ellias (William) Lonsdale, the book is rich with easily digestible yet profound information in a "familiar" setting. It's like being right there with Mark and Ellias and all the others. I gifted this book to my 22 year old son, hoping he might find it of interest. I was very pleased and excited to find out that he too had a hard time putting it down, and even paced himself so that he could savor the story that much longer (he tends to be a fast reader). He also expressed he would be re-reading it again very soon.
Inspired by Mark's story, I arranged and experienced a Soul Level Astrology session with him. Mark's manner is very comfortable, gentle, and enlightening. I felt nurtured and honored at a deep level, so much so that "truth tears" flowed easily from my eyes during the reading.
I hope that you find this book as riveting as I did. And be sure to tell your friends about it.

I was very excited to pick up Mark Borax's book on 2012. Many of the books I've seen on the subject are either doom and gloom or so difficult to understand that I don't read them. This book presents an engaging story while presenting advanced concepts on the transformation of humanity in a clear and accessable way. The discussion on time and the unbinding of time was of particular interest to me.
