This book is midway between memoir and non-fiction. It is memoir because the text is framed by a prologue and an epilogue detailing some key events in the author's life which set him off on the path of self-knowledge. It is also non-fiction since in the five central chapters, though everything is still bound by the common thread of his personal experience, a closer examination of the various disciplines is undertaken. The complex task of interpreting an astrological birth chart, the exploration of the human body and mind through the yoga practice, the exploits of firewalking, the journey through the mysterious world of the human psyche and dream interpretation are examples of how you can penetrate into the territory of your soul by making use of seemingly different methods, but with the single purpose of demolishing your inner boundary walls. The path you explore in your quest to investigate the world gets wider and wider as you dismiss old thinking patterns and work out ancient emotional knots, with your sense of self-awareness deepening with every step you take.
