Numerous great thinkers have believed in the transmigration of the soul over the course of many lifetimes. From Western industrialist Henry Ford and famed World War II General George Patton, to the Eastern religious leaders Mahatma Gandhi and the Dalai Lama, all discussed memories of, or beliefs in, having past lives. The great philosophers Pythagoras, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, and even Saint Augustine believed in the rebirth of the soul. Awakening of a Warrior is the result of Navy SEAL Michael Jaco's investigation-his treasure hunt-into the lifetimes he experienced before the present. Included are his lives as King Abimelech of Gerar, who allied with Abraham in the creation of a new religion called Judaism; Cyrus the Great, who unified all of Persia and implemented Zoroastrianism as the state religion; and Marcus Furius Camillus, who came to be considered the second founder of Rome.
