Book excerpt: How can I expand my consciousness and so realizing my true nature, without having to retreat to a monastery and without following a Nepalese guru with an unpronounceable name? Carlo Magaletti proposes that you don't have to abandon your ego or renounce your materialistic desires, like some religions and spiritual sects suggest... not yet. Before you can do so, you should deeply understand that your material life is a tool for advancing spiritually and not the purpose of your existence. And your understanding of this will come through the process of building your ego in a healthy way (this book explains exactly what that means). "We should look at our ego as a sand mandala: it only makes sense to dismantle it after it has been accurately and patiently completed. Destroying the mandala before it is finished is not really letting go nor going beyond, but only a way to give up and therefore, to regress." Inspired by his research in the field of theater, the author suggests unusual techniques and methods to give you a new perspective on the dense matter of everyday life... and to help you get your wings while staying grounded in this world of earthly spirituality.
