Gripping

๐Ÿ“– Some books entertain you, while others leave you sitting with your thoughts long after youโ€™ve finished a chapter. I mean, of course, I have read a lot of books that come with this perspective, but itโ€™s always a new experience when you read something like this.๐Ÿ”ฎ Now, this book offers a captivating and deeply personal look into Kapilโ€™s decades-long quest to find a true living master on the physical plane. What begins as a genuine search for spiritual truth repeatedly leads him into a bizarre and dangerous โ€œdark worldโ€ of manipulation, occult practices, and spiritual power struggles. His encounters with different teachers, from an ego-driven Tantric to a ruthless Aghori, paint a disturbing picture of an esoteric world where vulnerable seekers can easily be exploited.๐ŸŒ‘ What makes the narrative particularly gripping is its unfiltered portrayal of the darker side of spiritual seeking. The author writes about captured souls, dark rituals, spiritual blackmail, astral experiences, and encounters with disembodied beings. At the same time, the story remains surprisingly human, exploring the psychological and physical toll these experiences take on him. His struggle to balance extraordinary spiritual experiences with his responsibilities as a family man and businessman adds another layer of depth to the narrative.๐Ÿง˜ I also found the contrast between spiritual power and genuine spirituality particularly thought-provoking. The book gradually moves away from the pursuit of miracles, supernatural abilities, and ego-driven teachers toward a simpler understanding of consciousness, humility, and divine grace.โœจ Honestly, this is more than a memoir about unusual spiritual experiences. It is a cautionary journey about the fine line between sincere spiritual seeking and the dangerous attraction of power and ego. Above all, it reminds us that the true spiritual path may not be about controlling the supernatural, but about confronting our own inner darkness, letting go of the ego, and discovering peace through selfless living and love.

A must read for sincere Sadhaka!

If anyone is doing Sadhana as a spiritual seeker, then this book is a must read about which is the right Sadhana.Any Sadhana done with ego for name ,fame and power, wealth etc by harming others is not the right way is what the author conveys with his life experiences.This book also warns a sincere seeker how one should be careful in selecting a guru or else how much effort is needed to get back on the right track and to debond with a guru who is vengeful.The author's psychic capabilities is remarkable indeed! It's not possible for the common ordinary folks. He is blessed indeed and his authentic narration of his mistakes as well as his good intentions is evident in every page.I have not experienced spirits or dark energies. Just because one hasn't experienced, one cannot conclude whether such events are possible or not. Just like a well experienced police officer who can look at someone and know that something is wrong with a person.similarily, an experienced psychic can see what the normal eyes fail to see.The miracles of Shirdi Sai Baba is well known to millions all over the world. The episode of Sai Baba in his life is really beautiful.I applaud the importance the author has bestowed to warn the readers not to head towards aghori Sadhana without a good intentioned Guru.It's a gripping read right from page one.Any Sadhaka who is on a spiritual path will agree with the author at some point in time.The right handed path is safe and secure with an enlightened guru is reiterated by the author throughout the book.Indeed, I read the book with a bit of shrill and fear through my spine when the author explains the details of aghori sadhana.For sincere spiritual sadhakas this book is a must read as to be careful in selecting a Guru and what not to do in Sadhana.

Loved every bit of it!

This is my second copy. I enjoyed reading the authorโ€™s experiences so much that I gifted my first copy to a friend. A few days ago, I had this urge to read the book again and ordered another copy. I noticed that this time when I read the book, there was a deeper understanding and connect with the authorโ€™s experiences.Kapil has beautifully shared his experiences and his journey into the dark world and makes us realise how our ego plays out in the spiritual process and due to our ego, we can get so lost amongst teachers that are lost themselves due to their inflated ego.A wonderful read for those who want to discover themselves and understand this beautiful deep connect to divinity, to God. Kapilโ€™s experiences has made me realise that God is not that far and one too can experience the Ultimate with deep meditation and a constant check on their ego.There were a lot of paragraphs that I underlined while reading and kept going through them again and again for deeper understanding. I loved reading about his meeting with Ram Dass, his paranormal activities with spirits and his experiences into Aghora and Tantra.This is one book I will read again and again! Cannot wait for his second book now.

Travel along author as he explores the dark face of the white world.

Story:Kapil is in search of a guru โ€“ a teacher who will hold his hand and guide him thru various tunnels of spiritual channels. On his journey through various facades of this unfamiliar domain, Kapil encounters things which are difficult to explain and more difficult to understand to the cores, however, it is a true story of experiences which Kapil himself has been through. This read helps the reader to understand various questions which all of us have asked at the least once in life โ€“ What is happiness? What should be our goal in this life? Which path to take? Does God actually exist? And many more. Walk with Kapil to find if he reaches his main aim of knowing the greatest power and Supreme Being.To Read or Not To Read:Definitely a must read for anybody and everybody. Why, you ask? Well, spirituality is certainly a touchy subject and relative to every person. When you read a book which gives you the gist of the journey traveled, it draws you towards it. All the more being a true story of Author Kapil Kumar Bhaskar himself, it is far more intriguing to know what is to happen ahead. The language used is simple and easy to understand. This is one book you will not regret having on your shelf allowing you the access to this rarely explored world at will. The title is very apt to the content and this book will certainly let you travel along author as he explores the dark face of the white world!

Do not fear failure but rather fear not trying

THE TITLE-The title itself gives us a hint of the spirituality which is being portrayed in the plot. The title tries to murmur as if I donโ€™t know where Iโ€™m going on this path. I donโ€™t know what Iโ€™m doing with my life. You had to be lost, before you could be found. These are the truths. You had to be confused, before you could find clarity; you had to suffer, before you could find peace. These were the only ways, life could happen. Of course you were confused before you found clarity. If you weren't confused, then you would already be clear. Of course you were lost before you were found. If you were already found, then you wouldn't be lost. Of course there would be suffering before peace. If there was already peace, then there wouldn't be suffering. One necessarily came before the other.I really loved the title of the plot since it demonstrates that the deepest secret is that life is not a process of discovery, but a process of creation. You are not discovering yourself, but creating yourself anew. Seek therefore, not to find out Who You Are, but seek to determine Who You Want to BeREVIEW OF THE BOOK-The author has very beautifully narrated the experiences which highlight the fact that Life is an experimental journey undertaken involuntarily. It is a journey of the spirit through the material world and, since it is the spirit that travels, it is the spirit that is experienced. That is why there exist contemplative souls who have lived more intensely, more widely, more tumultuously than others who have lived their lives purely externally. He also seeks the ultimate victory and by giving numerous instances he has proved to be brilliant.Imagine that the universe is a great spinning engine. You want to stay near the core of the thing - right in the hub of the wheel - not out at the edges where all the wild whirling takes place, where you can get frayed and crazy. The hub of calmness - that's your heart. That's where God lives within you. So stop looking for answers in the world. Just keep coming back to that centre and you'll always find peace. The author has very beautifully linked hopelessness, despair, sorry with love, hope and struggle. We all go through hard times in life. Itโ€™s a part of being alive and it's the reality we all have to deal with. There are times we forget our value as a person because we are so blinded with these thoughts of loneliness, emptiness and ego. Somewhere along the road we become numbed with all the frustrations and dissatisfaction. But life itself isn't always about darkness and sadness, Life is also filled with colors and that makes it beautiful. Along this path of darkness there's always light waiting to be seen by our daunted hearts. Our heart is gifted to see this light. It may be hiding behind those circumstances that we encounter; in a stranger we just met at an unexpected place; a family who has been always there but you just ignored because of your imperfect relationship with them; it might be a long time friend you have or a friend you just met. Open your heart and you will see how blessed you are to have them all in your life. Sometimes they are the light that shines your path in some dark phases of life. Don't lose hope. The author focuses n the word hope to point out the fact as written on the blurb that โ€œThe book hopes to save people from making that false step and even if one does commit that mistake, the book offers hope that it is not the end of the world; one can always get to the Lightโ€. Part of the problem with the word 'disabilities' is that it immediately suggests an inability to see or hear or walk or do other things that many of us take for granted. But what of people who can't feel? Or talk about their feelings? Or manage their feelings in constructive ways? What of people who aren't able to form close and strong relationships? And people who cannot find fulfillment in their lives, or those who have lost hope, who live in disappointment and bitterness and find in life no joy, no love? These, it seems to me, are the real disabilities.The complete plot gives us an idea of living better. Why do you want to shut out of your life any uneasiness, any misery, any depression, since after all you don't know what work these conditions are doing inside you? Why do you want to persecute yourself with the question of where all this is coming from and where it is going? Since you know, after all, that you are in the midst of transitions and you wished for nothing so much as to change. If there is anything unhealthy in your reactions, just bear in mind that sickness is the means by which an organism frees itself from what is alien; so one must simply help it to be sick, to have its whole sickness and to break out with it, since that is the way it gets better.I have come to accept the feeling of not knowing where I am going. And I have trained myself to love it. Because it is only when we are suspended in mid-air with no landing in sight, that we force our wings to unrave

I was not left disappointed after reading the book

Originally posted in my blog reflectionsofmindblog.wordpress.comWhen I was offered this book for review, I was skeptical about picking and reading something totally different from my choice of genres. But with a quest to try something new I went ahead and gave this book a try. I was not left disappointed after reading the book.This book is not your everyday read. It is a fantasy thriller with mystical elements. The book explores the journey of a man in search of a master who can guide him in his spiritual quest. This is a story where the man tries to save himself from getting sucked into the dark world and finally how he finds his true master. When you read the book you feel like you are reading a biography of a person on a spiritual journey.The book starts on a boring note and you will feel like putting away the book. But as you go further the pace picks up and it turns quite interesting. The author uses many mystical elements in the book. The tantric world and black magic is elaborately explained in the book.The language is lucid but at some point it does get difficult to understand with all the jargon related to spiritualism. The author also throws light on paranormal activities. The plot is gripping at times and boring at some points. The author could have taken more care at such points. Nevertheless, author Kapil has written this book with so much passion and zeal that it reflects in the book. I felt that the cover of the book could have been a bit more catchy and interesting.In a nut shell, this is an unique book which is good for one time read.My Rating: 3/5My Verdict: This book is one of a kind. Pick if you want to try something new and at your own risk.
