Author Hunt Henion talks about his latest book The Don Q Point of View

Hi Hunt, why don’t you tell me a bit about your new book, “The Don Q Point of View.”

It tells Cervantes’s stories about Quixote from Q’s perspective. It also discusses his commitment to The Impossible Dream in a way that I hope makes it relevant for today. More here: http://www.shiftawareness.com/donq.html

When did you first sense that you were Don Q, and the inspiration for the famed Miguel de Cervantes’s Man of La Mancha?

Actually, it hit me suddenly when I was told about it in channeling. However, after being told, memories started to come back. Then, as I read Cervantes’s Don Quixote, memories really started to flood in.

Writing a book is a huge undertaking. What inspired you to write “The Don Q Point of View?

I’ve always felt that his message of “reaching for the unreachable star” is just as relevant today as it was 400 years ago. I’ve always had an affinity for the character and what he represented. Then, when i started finding out the details of his true story, which i frankly think is much better than the funny stories Cervantes tried to tell, I felt compelled to compile them, and then to shape them into something anyone else could relate to.

Can you tell me a little about the other lifetimes you mention in the book and how they relate to your incarnation as Quixote?

I tell the story of how one lifetime led to another in the book. Basically tho, I found myself vulnerable, so I made the soul decision to be less so and came back as a soldier — over and over! Then, I took that invulnerability lesson to the next level by studying the mystic workings of the universe under Pythagoras and others.

My commitment to the ways of the light became an obsession, and my unrealistic hopes and desires caused me to give up on the enlightened, humanitarian way for a short while. Then the pendulum swung the other way. So it didn’t matter at all by the time I was born as Q that my battle was a totally unbeatable one. I just sort of snapped, and commitment overruled even the most common of common sense.

What is the primary message you hope comes across to the reader with “The Don Q Point of View”?

If that crazy old Q, with all his human failings, could stay committed to the ways of light, the rest of us, who are only a little crazy, certainly can!

Since the concept of reincarnation is woven throughout your manuscript, what’s a good way for people to learn more about reincarnation?

The Don Q Point of View illustrates how things work, and I think opens up the reader to wondering about their own past. This wondering process in the context of how enemies become lovers and how our desires lead to tragedies which resolved in a grand multi-life catharsis leads to the discovery of a lot of truth even if actual past lives are crystallized in the readers mind. If at that point, they feel compelled to look into their past lives, there’s always channeling or past life regression.

What’s the best way people can get a copy of Don Q?

Personalized copies are available from our web site: www.shiftawareness.com, but you can also get the book or eBook through Amazon or your favorite bookstore.

Thanks Hunt for chatting with me today and sharing your insights about The Don Q Point of View.
