He began his writing career with a pair of modern-Gothic horror novels, The Wolfen (1981) and The Hunger (1983), which was turned into a feature film by the late great filmmaker Tony Scott.<\/p>\n<p>He is perhaps best known for the third phase of his career, which began with Communion (1989), an autobiographical account of his experiences with strange alien \u201cvisitors\u201d who he says came to his cabin in the New York countryside. This #1 New York Times Non-Fiction Bestseller (on the list for 15 weeks) was also turned into a film starring Christopher Walken.<\/p>\n<p>Whitley has written several other thrillers, and two novels about environmental apocalypse, Nature\u2019s End and The Coming Global Superstorm. Superstorm served as an inspiration for Fox\u2019s The Day After Tomorrow (2004), and Strieber later penned the novelization of that film.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHate is like coal, it burns out. Love is like heat, it doesn\u2019t.\u201d \u2013 The Master of the Key<\/p>\n<p>In this episode, we will be discussing one of Whitley\u2019s most profound books, The Key: A True Encounter.<\/p>\n<p>At two-thirty in the morning of June 6, 1998, Whitley Streiber was awakened by somebody knocking on his hotel room door. A man came in, and everything he said was life-altering.<\/p>\n<p>This is the unsettling and ultimately enlightening narrative of what happened that night. Strieber was never really sure who this strange and knowing visitor was\u2013a \u201cMaster of Wisdom\u201d? A figure from a different realm of consciousness? A preternaturally intelligent being? He called him the Master of the Key. The one thing of which Strieber was certain is that both the man and the encounter were real.<\/p>\n<p>The main concern of the Master of the Key is to save each of us from self-imprisonment. \u201cMankind is trapped,\u201d the stranger tells Strieber. \u201cI want to help you spring the trap.\u201d In a sweeping exchange between Strieber and the stranger\u2013which takes the form of a classical student- teacher dialogue in pursuit of inner understanding\u2013the unknown man presents a lesson in human potential, esoteric psychology, and man\u2019s fate. He illuminates why man has been caught in a cycle of repeat violence and self-destruction\u2013and the slender, but very real, possibility for release.<\/p>\n<p>In its breadth and intimacy, The Key is on par with contemporary metaphysical traditions, such as A Course in Miracles, or even with the dialogues of modern wisdom teachers, such as D.T. Suzuki and Carl Jung.<\/p>\n<p>It was a pleasure speaking to Whitley. Enjoy!<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"max-width: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/read.amazon.com\/kp\/card?asin=B0BVT7MP51&amp;preview=inline&amp;linkCode=kpe&amp;ref_=cm_sw_r_kb_dp_DWRFXJ4A6174ATVRSSWD\" width=\"336\" height=\"550\" frameborder=\"0\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"max-width: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/read.amazon.com\/kp\/card?asin=B004XFYRDY&amp;preview=inline&amp;linkCode=kpe&amp;ref_=cm_sw_r_kb_dp_NRRZEH8PB0W7NWK6R78F\" width=\"336\" height=\"550\" frameborder=\"0\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I had the honor of speaking to renowned and New York Times best-selling author Whitley Strieber.
