Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of The Romantic Ideal is to present a definition of romance, one that actually adheres to our hearts and souls. It is the opinion of this writer that romance actually presents to us our highest calling, not religion. But we need an icon, if you will, to believe in, to hold us together when the times get tough, and to bring out the best within us. This icon is the Romantic Ideal. "The light of love, isn't that what romanticism is about? The heart beats full; there is a sparkle in one's eyes. One is filled with the light, literally. Look at any couple in love. The light of their creative balance shines bright. They are radiant. There is a glow about them. They are being bathed in the healing energy of their own love for each other. They are in love, their lives in the harmony of perfect balance." The Romantic Ideal Author Bio: Christopher Alan Anderson (1950 - ) received the basis of his education from the University of Science and Philosophy, Swannanoa, Waynesboro, Virginia. He resides in the transcendental/romantic tradition, that vein of spiritual creativity of the philosopher and poet. His quest has been to define and express an eternal romantic reality from which a man and a woman could together stand in their difference and create a living universe of procreative love. Mr. Anderson began these writings in 1971. The first writings were published in 1985. On a personal note, when Mr. Anderson was asked to describe the writings and what he felt their message was he responded, "Spiritual procreation. Mankind has yet to distinguish the two sexes on the spiritual level. In this failure lies the root of our problems and why we cannot yet touch the eternal together. The message of man and woman balance brings each of us together in love with our eternal other half right now." keywords: Romance, Light, Love, Ideal, Real, Creative Balance, Sexual Metaphysics
