A Must Read For All Of Us In The AOL
Michael Fishman's book, Stumbling into Infinity, is a definite must read for all of us seekers. Michael, President of Art of Living USA, bares his soul and speaks about his own personal journey to find God and his purpose in life and Sri Sri's role in shaping the person he is today. He does not offer himself to any of us as a perfected soul but one who is constantly evaluating himself and adjusting to getting his perception, observation and expression right. He was blunt on the criticisms of himself by his peers and even Guruji's and achingly tells of how his own personal desires warred with his desire to serve Sri Sri and his humiliating experiences.
Guruji's unconditional love and care for Michael and each of us is conveyed so beautifully in his messages in this book. Intensely beautiful with so much love that it is unbelievable. I found Michael's recount intensely emotional and wrenching while there are moments when the hilarity stuns. Michael has fulfilled Guruji's wish to have his experiences written to benefit others and it could not have come at a better moment in my own personal journey. I look forward to part 2 of this book which may not come for many more years when Michael fully understands the journey he has been on. But the best part of this is Michael does not offer himself to any of us as a perfect Teacher or perfect human being. There is so much each of us can learn from this book. I would recommend this to everyone.
