Editorial Reviews This is an astounding book replete with miracles, meetings with masters, description of higher levels of consciousness and spiritual attainment. It is a rather strange tale. — Dr Karan Singh, Tribune News Service Sri M is an enlightened soul, a Guru whom I met years ago. Sri M is very accessible.... I wish he would take me as a disciple but I will have to wait for another birth when I am more evolved. — Maneka Gandhi, Mathrubhoomi Whether or not you are a skeptic, this beautifully produced book makes for compelling reading. And, hey, the author is around, if you want to grill him about the harder to believe elements in the book. — The Herald of India The autobiography deals with the transformation of Mumtaz Ali Khan into Sri M as he went on acquiring profound knowledge of the Upanishads, deep personal insights and a higher level of consciousness. Descriptions on the beneficial effects of yoga, meditation and metaphysics are fascinating. Sri M is often termed as modern day Kabir Das. — The Hindu It is prophetic that he will use the name ‘Sri M’, which will remind him of his Babaji Maheshwarnath, who comes across as the “great master, wise, powerful and loving”. The book is, in fact, a tribute to him. For anybody who has interest in mysticism, Sufism and Vedanta, Sri M’s autobiography is, indeed, a treasure-trove. — The Organizer What stands out about this book is that its narrative exudes a sense of wonder, for the author often uses the word ‘strange’ to describe his experiences. Some of the instances that he recounts challenge your sense of belief and disbelief so much, that you don’t quite know what to believe. But a little deeper reading, however, renders more meaning to the narrative than is apparent at first glance. He deals easily and honestly with the mistrust between religions just as he also shows how these way. This book chronicles Sri M's remarkable journey from his early life in Kerala, India, to his transformative encounter with his spiritual master, Sri Maheshwarnath Babaji, in the Himalayas. It's not a conventional autobiography, filled with chronological details. Instead, it focuses on the profound spiritual experiences and insights Sri M gained during his time with Babaji. He recounts encounters with other spiritual figures, explores various yogic practices, and shares his unique perspective on life, purpose, and enlightenment. *******
