| Otis B. Johnson was a young college professor of English in the 1960s, when he joined the exodus of hippies going to California to meet someone his friend said could take them where they wanted to go the fastest. Where did they want to go? - They wanted to meet the divinity, obtain God-consciousness, get enlightened, find love, experience samadhi, in short - they didn't know for sure. What happened? - Otis B. Johnson became Mansur Johnson during a three year encounter with the world's first Guru-Roshi-Murshid, Samuel L. Lewis.
Murshid shows in intimate detail how Murshid, the first Western-born Sufi teacher, Zen master, and practitioner of Indian cosmic metaphysics, accomplished his life’s purpose. |
