Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Truth will set you free
This book is a very good read which tells of a man's search for true God. Great testimony and a must read. I highly recommend this book.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Death of a Guru Book review
This is a very good book! I was very touched and amazed how the author describes his experiences vividly and informatively.

It is one thing to know the different names of the gods, ceremonies, names of scriptures, and local superstition then to truly understand ... Read More
