Shocked and startled, little did I realize that there was so much more to come. A river of mind-altering communiqués cascading through words, visions and surreal encounters. Month after month, year upon year.
At first I could not understand why, but over time I began to see its underlying purpose. I was simply receiving what I had asked for. I had asked an umpteen number of questions over the years. Somehow I was ready for the downpour of answers now. My turbulent life prior to this point had been good training ground; hardships having prepared me well as it turned out. So when the time came it was not so difficult for me to open myself up to receive that which would be, indeed needed to be, revealed.
Around the Golden Door was a circumference of many other doors, which though, were as mere shadows in comparison to the magnificence and grandeur of the Golden Door. The Golden Door was closed. I questioned why this door was shown to me. If there were Keys to opening this door, what were they?
I imagined God sculpting the Keys. Without these Keys, we could continue to go around in circles, repeating the same mistakes endlessly until we got it right. I was trying to make sense of it all at least in my own life moving up (or down) an imaginary scale. If this new world was through the Golden Door, would I be part of it? Or would I stay on the barren road of stagnation and struggle? ….
The deluge of revelations was unceasing and relentless. The people. The startling information. The unforgettable visitations. The life changing experiences. All leading to the discovery of the aspects needed for the Uplifting. I realized that these were guides for not only my own transformation but for all of humanity collectively. This led to a journey of invaluable interactions with people as I lived and traveled from my homeland in Singapore to Malaysia, Bali, and Pakistan. Both ordinary and extraordinary people who were living breathing catalysts to the world, giving life and meaning to the discoveries that unfolded before me .
Then came March 2015. The vision of the Golden Door once again, but this time I saw the door opening gradually, luring me in to show a glimpse of a hitherto unknown world. A New World. Accompanied by a sense that it was different this time; the glowing sights, the colors vivid and bright. The whispering sounds. We looked brighter.
The vision of the New World motivated me all the more to discover the Keys to this world – the next level of our civilized existence. I imagined my transcendence collectively with all of humanity, synonymous of a machine-like environment going through a massive upgrade with Keys at each level. Each of us as individuals conjointly with the Planet Earth attempting to make an upgrade as a sum total, almost as if it is happening all at the same time. The Old World moving onto the New World. The Old World fraught with calamities and upheavals that have been hurled upon us with greater intensity the past few decades.
The Old World with our old selves reaching an expiry date. The inflated human egos and deepening thirst for power that has led to world wars, terrorism and unending strife in so many forms on a global scale . Including the financial crises of the last several decades motivated by greed leaving hundreds of millions of people debt ridden and struggling to survive. The use and misuse of technology from weaponry to nuclear energy. The barreling of corporate and political scandals as well as senseless territorial disputes between nations. An eternal agenda to control by creating irrational fear.
MY ROLE, YOUR ROLE
It was only when I was given a preview of the flip side of myself, my alter-ego, my second Self, indeed my True Self that I started questioning all that is or appears to be. My role is to be a conduit through these experiences. My role is to make you question all that you and I are meant to be.
My role is to open your eyes on what needs to be done. Many of these facts you probably already know, and perhaps some you may even disagree with. The Truth is that there really is no right or wrong. Sometimes things need to be shown and sometimes things need to be experienced. It’s like saying that you can swim, but when you are thrown into the waters you start to struggle and you may even drown. I was pushed into the waters and I was drowning till I was forced to open my spiritual eyes and embrace a vision of a True Reality (which may sound fantastical to some).
It was God who gave me that hard push. It was God who helped me to open up and receive this other side of my Self with the innumerable signs have made their justification.
Did people believe my story before I wrote this book? Yes and no. Some shirked while some embraced in awe. Some responded with skepticism, some with joy and elation. I do not know why God orchestrated all the events and experiences, in such perfect harmony. He has His ways. Will you as the reader believe these experiences and allow them to transform your life? I leave it up to you.

“A refreshing account of living a spiritual journey.” ~ Julia Fraser, Film Producer
“Very magical as it unfolds. I love how all the characters are introduced and then weaved to the central core of “our intimacy with God”, how each plays a part in unraveling the story. It is very powerful and written with immense control, yet freedom of a style that is engaging and thought provoking. I felt the passion and energy as I read, and I just love the flawless storytelling, weaving and weaving that intricate carpet of life on earth.” ~ Harjit Kaur, Senior Lecturer
“Prophecy will be fulfilled & pass away. As for knowledge, it will pass away & lose its value & be superseded by Truth. But love never fails, never fades out, or becomes obsolete, or comes to an end. This book is written by a woman who loves you enough to lay her life open before you.” ~ Kristen Daria Zuriel, Missionary
“The wealth of knowledge and experience Tahira shares in this book as she explores the choices we have for our future inspires one to start thinking about his/her own. An important book to read in the journey of self-discovery.” ~ Sanmuga Thavamoorthy, Entrepreneur
This book is very powerful and thought provoking. Tahira is right when she says “There are somethings that can only be received from God in silence”. Through the experiences, I see this. Thank you. Thank you for sharing and keeping things simple enough for us to see and feel. ~ Shikha Tuli, Educationist
THE FOREWORDS
An abstract from one of the Forewords of the book – written by Dr Eric Wilding (Professor of Language and Religion) below :
” … Each chapter is peppered with encounters of people — both old and young— who serve as mentors, inspiring her growth as a person. She is willing to look wherever the light is guiding her. The journey is not simply subjective; Tahira grounds her experiences in the latest scientific knowledge, while simultaneously allowing ancient wisdom to be part of the foundation. With a fluid literary style, she allows readers to observe a narrative tapestry of technology, mathematics, geometry, philosophy, psychology, sociology, literature and spirituality.
There are encounters that will challenge empirically minded readers. However, if readers open themselves, these gems will expand in their hearts and minds. Many readers, like the author, have been seeking a greater experience of the ultimate reality. They have most likely attended seminars, retreats and gatherings as well as read books, articles, and pamphlets on the next thing that will lead them further on their path toward enlightenment. The author will be a welcome companion as readers compare their travels with hers, exploring the puzzles, paradoxes and mysteries of existence.”
NOTE FROM THE EDITORS
An abstract from the review by Adil Naeem (Co-Editor):-
” … Every so often, the “powers that be” send particularly unique, courageous and gifted individuals to help us in our journey towards universal awareness and self-discovery, hopefully managing to convince us along the way that these are one and the same thing. Or to put it another way, the not so different aspects of the One. For a greater part of her life Tahira has gravitated towards cerebral pursuits. Mathematics, technology, spirituality, art and entrepreneurial imperatives define not only the paradigm of her passions but the focal point of an instinctive drive. Several years ago certain encounters of a very unusual kind had her question the status quo and at a crossroads in life choose a path rife with risk and sacrifice, to answer the call of a higher purpose.
Within these chapters Tahira shares discoveries, interactions, illuminations and revelations and delivers the message she was meant to deliver. So dear Reader , proceed with an open heart. Let Tahira show you the rainbow within the mist. At this crossroad let Tahira gently and lovingly, nudge you towards a path that promises gilded horizons.”
An abstract from the review by Flaviana Chelliah (Co-Editor) :-
” … For the past three years, Tahira has conscientiously devoted the most part of her energies to finding the answers to a more meaningful life. During her search, she encountered a series of spiritual revelations which she wanted to share with as many people as possible ….
This book beautifully recounts Tahira’s experiences, which explore symbolism, philosophical, scientific and spiritual teachings. I have learnt so much from her and welcome all of you to embark with her, on this journey of discovery.”.
