This is a book for the thirsty and emphatically not a book for the faint-hearted. In a series of far-reaching exploratory conversations, Sad guru -a living master and mystic of our times -touches on every conceivable question that a seeker might nurse about the realm of the mystical. Questions about enlightenment, liberation, death, God and the afterlife. Also those niggling but ostensibly trifling questions that so many wonder about, but are hesitant to ask: about spirits, disembodied beings, black magic, possession and the occult and in a riveting culmination to the book, Sad guru unfolds the story of his life mission, a saga of extraordinary commitment and courage that spans three lifetimes.
The result is the Dhyanalinga, the dream of countless yogis down the centuries: a unique energy form which sows the seed of liberation in all who visit it. This is a book to treasure. It offers an unprecedented glimpse into the world of a contemporary mystic, a prodigious living archive of knowledge. In the course of his discussions, Sad guru probes the farthest realms of illogic and yet his unfailingly rational and matter-of-fact tone lends credibility to the more fantastic aspects of the content.
