Great story!

This is a simply told, fascinating story (and a very quick read). Masao Maki, a successful restauranteur, has tried many different alternative therapies and religious practices, and traveled around the world in search of himself. I can't forget his impressions of every place he described. For the reviewer who thought it lacked substance, for me there was no need for such a short book to go deeper, because (it seemed to me) he wrote this book to simply present the facts about certain places/gurus (exposing a major hoax in the process!) and it's probably appropriate for him to keep the rest to himself. I have great respect for him and for his journey, and for the people he met on his way.

sushi chef goes New Age

I enjoyed this book very much, but like eating Sushi, in a few hours, I was hungry for more. The author gave an honest, if not simple, account of his mystical experiences in India and Peru, not to mention his endless seekings of advice from astrologers, psychics, and the like. I appreciated the style of his writing, but I would have like to see more SUBSTANCE to the narrative.
