Mike Shreve is a former Kundalini Yoga teacher, having
studied assiduously under Yogi Bhajan. He writes:
"In the fall of 1969 I went to hear Yogi Bhajan:
a guru from India who claimed he came to North America to help the ‘flower
child,’ ‘peace’ generation find their way spiritually. He taught
us about yoga (a word literally meaning ‘to be yoked,’ the inference
being that the goal of the devotee is to be ‘yoked with God.’ He
explained that this ‘union’ could be achieved through various means,
especially prolonged meditation. With his full beard, long black hair
and intense dark eyes, this teacher of Far Eastern mysticism was
somewhat imposing and quite convincing. However, it was much more than
the mystique surrounding this tall, muscular, turban-clad Sikh that
attracted me. It was more than the sincere concern he showed for others,
or the evident passion he displayed concerning his beliefs. It was more
than just the stimulus of a new approach to spirituality. It was the
promise that I could actually experience God and penetrate the
supernatural realm for myself. This drew me to Yogi Bhajan’s words and
to the system of yogic discipline he was propagating (Kundalini Yoga,
also called the ‘yoga of awareness’). Attaining my ‘higher Self’
soon became the primary focus of my day-to-day existence. In between and
after college classes, I used every available hour to pursue the goal of
‘reaching enlightenment.’"
Read how Mike's life did a turn-around, as he
encountered the Supreme Creator of all things in the person of Jesus
Christ, who bade him to follow Him and leave all behind. You will be so
excited to read Mike's book. It is a true resource and very well
documented, as well as compassionate and non-judgmental.

The Experience of Ultimate Truth
By Michael Graham
"Today, many have embarked on a spiritual
journey, but few have done it with the enthusiasm dedication and
intensity of Michael Graham. While still a teenager, a twenty-eight year
odyssey began, leading him to India where he had dramatic encounters
with some of the 20th Century's most famous Eastern religious
teachers."
—Martin Roth, author of Zen Guide and Living
Water to Light the Journey
In this very personal account he tells of these
meetings and spiritual 'awakenings' and then his subsequent efforts to
reconcile his amazing experiences with his questioning intellect. At the
same time he presents an eloquent insider's account of the Western world's
fascination with Eastern Mysticism. This enthralling story will stimulate
and challenge all spiritual seekers.
"This is no ho-hum, so what, who cares, take
it or leave it story. Michael is distinguished as one who has rubbed
shoulders with the leading gurus and teachers of our time. As he
discloses, Michael was among the first three western devotees of
Muktananda’s Siddha Yoga. Michael’s spiritual induction became a
legendary illustration to others in the movement. He helped to organize
one leg on Muktananda’s first world tour in 1970. He would spend
16 years in the movement, working in or managing the ashrams in
Ganeshpuri, Miami , Los Angeles , New York and Melbourne."
—Philip Johnson, Founder of New Age Mission
However, Michael was not just involved in Siddha Yoga.
He spent time with other leading gurus such as Bhagawan Sri Rajneesh (Osho),
Swami Rudrananda, Da Free John, U.G. Krishnamurti and H.W.L. Poonja. He
also explored mind powers in Silva Mind Control, the Forum and Avatar.
Michael met New Age luminaries like Marilyn Ferguson and Ingo Swann, and
was friends with the esoteric writer Israel Regardie. He went on to become
a successful mind powers teacher in his own right, combing the best
insights that he had found in both Hindu and human potential thought.
Michael's story winds it's way across the decades and
continents and brings us to a startling and amazing mystical experience
that has transformed and empowered his entire being. His thirst for
authentic spirituality was slaked in a dramatic and powerful encounter
with the divine being who made our world. From that explosive moment,
Michael has walked in a new direction, a spiritual discipline filled with
grace and thanksgiving. He has some deep thoughts to share on what this
means to him. He believes what he has discovered also has implications for
those of us who are willing to listen.

Would you like to learn about the spiritual roots to
all diseases and illnesses? I recently attended a seminar at Pleasant
Valley Church in Thomaston, Georgia for two weeks and discovered spiritual
roots to some of the physical and emotional difficulties in my life.
Through this once-a-month seminar, many people are finding release from
sickness and oppression. I personally witnessed some serious illnesses
healed, such as cancer and environmental/chemical sensitivities,
depression, and addictions, and saw bondages broken and generational
curses removed.
Did you realize that the root of 80 % of all illness is
spiritual in origin? God wants all people to understand the reasons for
their sicknesses and why there are blocks to their healing. When we are
free, we can then lighten another's way. The principles Pastor Henry
Wright has gleaned over the years are practical and easy to understand,
and they are found in the Bible. You can read about them
in Dr. Wright's wonderful "textbook."
