Ghetto Buddha: A path to awakening

Book One in a three volume series.Nico had but moments to leave the projects. It had become that dangerous. His life was at risk. He had no way of knowing that he'd end up leaving his mother and sister behind. For all they knew, a local gangster had killed Nico and dumped his body in the Harlem River. But by saving his life, Nico answered a call diametrically opposed to the crime-ridden life he'd just been living. Despite feeling like an outcast, Nico eventually found his way to a secluded spiritual community led by a man known as "The Teacher." Nico soon embraced that teaching and its members. That defined approach first sought to address and then resolve one's past. Intense psychological depth-work was required. Meditation would only come much later. "You can't meditate away your past," the Teacher would say. But constant within Nico's mind was the idea, as with Buddha, that when one puts his or her past to rest, the higher spiritual path begins to open. The potential for enlightenment becomes possible. A method or a system is revealed in this novel. Contrary to typical spiritual teachings, this method offers a practical means of clearing what in many ways represent obstacles to higher awareness. It offers crucial insights that open the way toward greater spiritual realization.
