Ted Gregory is a stock-broker barely hanging in with the flow of life. A morning ride to work turns into a trip that takes Ted back in time to visit an old diner which he had not been in for decades. The diner still exists, almost as in a time warp. A series of impulsive decisions sends Ted off on a new journey, both physically and metaphorically. The Mystic is a stranger sitting alone in a coffee shop waiting for Ted, or anyone, to engage him in conversation. The mystic who teaches others has to be a master of using metaphor and parable to explain concepts. Mystery surrounds mysticism, but in reality, it can help provide a practical guide for positive transformation in any person's life. Mysticism has room for sceptics and scientists. In fact, the scientists with great new ideas and theories have to walk the mystic's path into the realms of the metaphysical.
