The Illusion: A Personal Journey Towards Spiritual Awakening
A personal and fascinating story on how to find your true Self.
By throwing himself into the unknown the answers to what we truly are finally came.
“Existence is an on-going rediscovery of the self.”
–Magnus Ahlberg
This is in many ways a controversial book. It challenges both the major religions and modern science, and you may be forced to scrutinize yourself and your own values. We live in a time where a lot of people leave the old beliefs behind and at the same time feel that the materialist worldview feels cold and soulless.
In his lifelong search for answers, the author has explored places most of us never dared to visit by throwing himself into the unknown. What he have to say may shake up society and our most fundamental notions about reality, revealing a bridge between the spiritual and the physical world.
With the knowledge gained from his own spiritual experiences and his spiritual studies, he explains what consciousness is all about, how we ought to live our lives, where we come from and where we are heading. Above all, he shows that you don’t need to believe in any ideology. You can for yourself understand and experience the solution to the mystery of life.
“Every time you feel something painful it’s because you created a separation between yourself and something else. If you return to become one with what you meet, the suffering will go away. The meaning of life in the physical world is to understand that as long as you are two, you will experience various forms of pain.”

This was a book that totally surprised me by it´s depth. As a reader you follow the journey that the author Magnus has made during his life and it is an extraordinary life to say the least. Tons of deep spiritual insights and theoretical knowledge are shared here as well as his personal and very fascinating spiritual experiences.
I have never encountered such detailed explanations of what our consciousness is and how the spiritual principles that governs our experience works. This book just blew my mind when reading chapter 14!
A must read for the serious spiritual seeker.
