If you meditate...

If you experience odd things when you meditate, or meet beings that are totally out of this world, this book is for you. It explains alot and makes you feel that you are not alone in your journey through the underworld.

Journey to Hell and Back...

Words are completely inadequate to describe the horror of the experience described by Mr Mann in this book. That human beings are capable of such cruel acts of senseless violence, that we have not yet evolved past such futile, disempowered expressions of rage and envy numbs the mind. What is truly extraordinary is that rather than be crushed by the calamities which befall him, Mr Mann emerges spiritually transformed and able to embrace the world as a radiant, whole being. Having been honored to work with him briefly, I can attest to the truth of this astonishing triumph. Where most of us might be filled with hate and bitterness, Mr Mann remains generous and deeply engaged in the welfare of the world around him. His story is miraculous, but the true wonder is that as we read, we come to know this potential within ourselves. A harrowing, inspiring and deeply moving book.

A moving look into one man's spiritual journey

This book is part diary, part commentary on the author's spiritual journey. The conditions of the Turkish prison forced him to come to terms with himself, his beliefs, his fellow human beings. He saw terrible things and endured some terrible situations, but he got through it all with his humanity and spirit intact, one might even say improved.For those who like to have a story behind their spirituality, you will not be disappointed. The author details what was happening around him at each stage of his spiritual awakening. He doesn't hold anything back, you get a very intimate look at his life.I recommend this book to anyone who's looking to make peace with their shadow self, or who thinks their life is too awful to go on. The author's journey can give you inspiration and hope.
