Opis

These are the reminiscences of some of my years with Maha'ajji. He is a rare Master, who is equally comfortable in two worlds. He sees your world, and its traditional religions, only in the rear-view mirror. Viewed from 'his' world, your life is a work of fiction, scripted by you. This book is for those who think they are real, yet have a nagging feeling that this may not be so. It fills the void between reality and illusion, between certainty and uncertainty and one is able to pass from one to the other and be comfortable in both. There are no miracles, no complicated rituals, no chants, no deification here. Why, then, have I written this book? What does it have to offer? Maha'ajji's wisdom is of the ages, repeated by sages over the millennia. It shines here once more, in simple words, in the glow of an enlightened Master. And, though the song be the same, every Master plays it in his own unique way. Maha'ajji makes the most difficult things seem easy to understand. Mahajji's view from his world will help you with your own script and his affection will touch you to the core. We, who have been with him all these years, find contentment seeping into our lives and death lose its sting. Silence is his forte. Some blank pages you will find are there at his request. Let silence, his, and your own, speak to you through these. Any resemblance to anyone living or dead is unintentional. However, I will not be surprised if it occurs in this book. Two worlds are here. This book can be taken as fact or as fiction. The choice is yours, as always. Read it as you may...
