On midsummer's day 1989, the author stumbled upon an obscure Dark Age legend that led him on an inspirational quest across the Cumbrian Lake District. This book serves as an introduction to an esoteric adventure now known as the Quest for Bega, that has led to many new and exciting discoveries, including the search for the sacred centre or omphalos of the British Isles and the rediscovery of a lost and forgotten Goddess of the stars and the land. This ultimately led the author to discover the reality of the Celtic spiritual traditions of miracles, healing and magic. "A controversial, extraordinary record" The Keswick Reminder
