The Sages - Episode 13


A serialization of The Sages: Book One of the Mystic Trilogy
The Mystic Trilogy Series is three volumes, recorded by Joseph Sanders, a native of Oklahoma, who chose to commit his life to learning and living universal truth. The books are neither fiction nor non-fiction. The Mystic Trilogy is what you would have it be.

For almost forty of those years, Zhen Zheng had been working in the Harbor Master’s office and for the past ten he had been the Harbor Master. Not only has he seen the ship at least thirty times, he had met with ten different Masters of the Celestial Navigator. The turn over in commanding officers had to have brought up questions in his mind, though he had never asked a single one.
