MILAREPA: THREAT OR OPPORTUNITY BY ROBERT D. GILMAN In "Milarepa: Threat or Opportunity," Robert D. Gilman spins an intricate tale set in the enigmatic North Beach-a place where people who don't quite fit in find a peculiar kind of belonging. North Beach is a maze of sidewalks without sand, a landscape almost devoid of trees, yet it is as easy to get lost in as a dense forest. The narrative takes an unexpected turn with the reappearance of Milarepa, the great medieval Tibetan Buddhist saint, shortly after the 9/11 terrorist attack. This extraordinary event creates ripples in the world that reach into the heart of North Beach, intertwining the lives of the protagonist, Toni, and the narrator. Starting in the middle of things, Gilman moves back and forth in time, revealing how Toni died in the narrator's arms and how their tumultuous lives were inextricably linked. After her death, Toni wandered in the bardo of becoming until Milarepa transformed her into a dakini-a celestial being with a mission to save the people of North Beach. Central to the story is the Limbo Shift, an ethereal, after-hours shift at the Saloon founded by Bill Quack, a local bartender known for his boundless energy. After Bill's death, the shift is passed on to Toni, who, as a dakini, nurtures and expands it, creating waves of change throughout North Beach. "Milarepa: Threat or Opportunity" is a captivating exploration of life's complexities and the profound connections that bind us, inviting readers to lose themselves in its hypnotic narrative waves.
