This book presents the incredible journey of Avadhoota Nadananda as he transforms from an inquisitive, young man to one who achieves the highest spiritual awakening under the guidance of his spiritual Master. He takes the plunge into the relatively anonymous world of pure spirituality beyond all comfort zones and emotions that an average human being can never imagine. Join us on Nadananda's journey to the unfathomable, unimaginable and unthinkable as he travels across the length and breadth of India overcoming all odds to finally reach Gyanganj (Shambala), the causal layer of earth and the world of Avadhootas located somewhere in Tibet.

Upon receiving the highest spiritual knowledge, he returns and dedicates his life to serving humanity.
