"The Buddha and The Dream of America" is another of James Hilgendorf's books aimed at revealing a new vision of America - a vision encompassing everything that has transpired in the past, yet transfigured now - voices, dreams, peoples, the Dream that was to be America, the Dream that became mired and lost in the past, resurrected now through a great new spiritual awakening revealing itself in the most down-to-earth lives of ordinary men and women.

From the book:

"The American Dream is actually an awakening to our place in the cosmos.  We have never known who we really are.  We are the gods we talk about in our religions.  Our lives have been here forever, filled with wonder.  The Earth is the stage upon which we play out a myriad of eternal roles.

"We are each other, in disguise.  The homeless man down the street is our long-lost father.  Brother and sister have met before, innumerable times, changing faces.  Our bride of today is our bride of yesteryear.

"When we awaken, here in America, then we will truly know who we are.  Our heart is the universe, and it beats in everyone."
