Javier Farias shares his insight into the spiritual significance of the characters and events in the story of the Wizard of Oz.

Parallels and comparisons are clearly defined between the book written by Frank Baurn and the MGM movie version of the story.

Unlike most stories involving a heroine, there was no handsome prince or knight in shining armor (not even a cowboy in a Stetson) on the way to rescue a helpless princess. This heroine was destined to work through her troubles without the help of a handsome prince.

Wisdom regarding our own spiritual paths can be gleaned from Javier's analysis of Dorothy's time in the poppy fields, the ruby slippers, and other aspects of this time-honored story.
