Book 1- The Sword of Understanding
The Sword of Understanding, Book 1 of the ‘Waking Up From The Dream’ series, is a story for our time. Like a true classic it has been embraced and loved by people of all ages.
Tokio wakes up after yet another mysterious dream
of a sparkling golden sword, a dark-red haired girl,
shining eyes and a voice saying, “You are a
Change Bringer, young one. You are here to learn
how to fly and to lead many young people to freedom.”
As pieces of Tokio’s dream begin to appear in his
daily life, he finds himself propelled on a magical
and miraculous adventure to discover what is truly
possible in life.
If it’s okay with your parents that an enlightened master
is willing to teach you how to live a fantastic life and to
fly like an eagle – the only challenge is you have to look
within and face your inner dragons – would you do it?

yourself and other people better than you did before.

Adults are saying:
One day my son Jack said ‘we need to leave school now and go to the shops’. He said that his teacher Brandon had written a book. When we got to the shops, he picked out the book ‘Waking Up From A Dream’. By the time we got back to the car, Jack was already reading and for the next few weeks he would not put the book down and kept telling me how brilliant it was. That was three years ago and he still talks about it now! (Rhonda)
We absolutely love “Waking Up From The Dream”. Infinite gratitude for blessing us with such a beautiful story!!. I just finished reading it to my 8.5 year old daughter, taking turns with Sarah who would read Harry Potter to Hanako on alternating nights. So, as you can see, it more than held its own magical spells too! (Naoki)
