A story harmonizing science, philosophy and religion and using the science fiction genre as a vehicle, The Seven Circles is the account of a 20th century man who is cryonically frozen and is awoken in the 500th century when spiritual reality has been proven to be a fact. This future world is the Era of Light and Life, a time when mankind has evolved to a higher state. William Drake, the protagonist from the 20th century, finds that his entire view of existence has been turned upside down. Spiritual re¬ality being accepted as fact by all, he comes to realize that his values are completely irrelevant and that his competitive attitude gained through living in the 20th century dog-eat-dog environ¬ment is a barbaric anachronism.
That being the case, he is surprised to find that his company is desired by many just for the reason that his, by comparison, savage qualities are rare and gives the people the opportunity to “turn the other cheek” when faced with his behavior and thereby gain spiritual growth from the experience.
The downside is that he is not allowed complete freedom until he has progressed in his own self-mastery through the conquest of the “the Seven Circles” of spiritual, intellectual and material attainment – a daunting challenge for anyone, much less an atheist.
The Seven Circles A Tale of Spiritual Exploration eBook Richard Omura
As a work of science fiction, the story is imaginative and fascinating. There are moments of dazzling beauty and compelling imagery. Unfortunately these moments are too few and far between. The book is written as a first person narrative, and the protagonist is somewhat shallow. I had a hard time identifying with him, or caring much about what happened to him.The spiritual material in the book mostly comes from the The Urantia Book, and I found it interesting. A ton of material is covered, often in a very dry lecture style. Many of the concepts were presented as an overview, and didn't have much depth. The story bogs down in this material, and as a result the book was not a real page turner for me. I would read a chapter or two and need a break.
It's tough for me to give a final rating, I liked it more than spiritual fiction books that I gave three stars, and less than the books I gave 4 stars. Too bad Amazon will not let me give it 3.5 stars.

The Seven Circles A Tale of Spiritual Exploration eBook Richard Omura Reviews
One of the best books I have ever read. I have given several copies away as gifts and every one who started the book finished it.
the first half of the book was an interesting perspective on human spiritual evolution. then it became boringly preachy
This book captivates a spiritual cadence so deep and profound I could not put it down. A brilliant participator in a futuristic world where light emerges so graciously on a baby soul of sorts. I recommend this read for all interested in an evolutionary experience beyond the scope of most science fiction...
This novel inspired me. It moves quickly and honors the intelligence of the reader. The author assumes the reader can keep up or will look up information on their own without spending time over explaining. He whisks you along to another time, culture, ideals, meanings, beliefs, morals, and perspective with the ease and confidence of someone who has actually been there. His explanations clarified ideas for me that I had given up on exploring. His word pictures pushed me ahead to where I can stand amongst grand ideas and observe them in the round.
I highly recommend this book as not just great science fiction but expanding my world...universe view not unlike other greats like Arthur C Clarke did for me a decade ago.
