David's Journey
A Life's Work Toward Healing, Human Divine Development, and Earth Peace
David H. Fastiggi, Sc.D.
Every human life is created with purpose. Yet discovering that purpose and becoming capable of living it can require a lifetime of searching.
David H. Fastiggi's journey spans more than five decades of prayer, disciplined practice, nutritional study, international teaching, spiritual inquiry, and lived experience. What gradually emerged was an integrated understanding of God’s original design for the spiritual, psychological-emotional, and physical development of the whole human being.
His life's work eventually became the Genesis Principle and the Eartheaven Blueprint, an architecture of human divine growth and a pathway toward earth peace.

A Word Carried Forward
FROM THE PUBLISHED RECORD
Like David, the spectrum, the wisdom and knowledge are given to him...whatever David contends, his way of perceiving things, his way of explaining the phenomena, the symptoms or the cure...all things about medicine should not be ignored at all, never be ignored, but a lot of attention should be given to what he says.
— Rev. Sun Myung Moon, speaking to health professionals, 1987
