It is available on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0GM8M1MV5\">Amazon Kindle<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Why am I making the book available on Kindle if it&#8217;s already available here for free? Well, making books available for free was never one of my priorities. In fact, I think money is a good filter for non-serious people, since people pay money for things they deem important. The reason why I have PDF versions downloadable here is to make sure they are available at all, because it turned out to be the only completely reliable channel. Initially, since 1999, I focused on making physical books available, and that was a terrible hassle and a money pit. Eventually, as everything went digital, e-books came to dominate and the physical books became completely secondary. This means that, for me, e-book availability is a priority, and physical books printed on-demand are secondary, because I&#8217;m trying to maintain accessibility. Also, because of possible censorship, I have to maintain availability on my website. Financially, I expect books to remain a money pit for me &#8211; it&#8217;s something I, as well as other people, had to invest money in, as a form of charitable work, so that the important knowledge would become available to the people who need it. Any money I made from selling books never came even close to covering even the fraction of the cost of producing them, and I expect that to remain so, since my books are too intellectually demanding and harsh ever to become truly popular. What they are, is extremely useful to those few people who actually find them and need them, and this makes it worth it for me to endure all the nonsense involved with putting them out there.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;The Light Beyond&#8221; is the book I recommend you to read first, and everything else is good only as clarification of the theory involved. I don&#8217;t even know how to define the book itself. To say it was inspired from above would be a huge understatement, because, if anything, it was downloaded into my physical brain, which then gave it the final form. If there&#8217;s such a thing as revealed scripture, this would be it.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: inherit;\">I wrote several books about spirituality, yoga, vedanta and buddhism throughout three decades.
