True stories of spiritual power

Written by an American with Christian roots, Thomas Ashley-Farrand (Namadeva) describes his experiences with remarkable people. He questions the cultural conditioning which creates our materialist notions of power (personal, church, corporate, government, media, criminal,) as his experiences change him from a Westerner to a priest in the Hindu and Buddhist traditions. A brief but very useful section on specific mantras for healing, overcoming obstacles and prosperity is included. His stories "demonstrate that positive spiritual forces are actually working secretly and silently all over the world-- It's funny and fascinating, as well as occasionally profound. I couldn't put it down." Doe Lang, Ph.D., author of The New Secrets of Charisma. "Reminding one of Yogananda's Autobiography of a Yogi, in that the wonder and vision of a more beautiful and serving world is possible,the book inspires and educates the reader."
