A Disciple: The Spiritual Path to Infinite Happiness
A Disciple describes a singular journey with a universal appeal, on the path of Perennial Wisdom. There are lessons for us all as we recognise the call from our inner spirit, our yearning for 'something other' in a materialistic world that so often leaves us dissatisfied.
There is another way for us to live, and A Disciple asks important questions about faith and spirituality and connects us with the power of meditation. The author believes passionately that it is meditation that provides the foundation for a caring and compassionate future.
The story is told with engaging candour, with tales from mythology, quotations from Rumi, and references to Sufi texts all adding colour to the Wisdom Teachings he is receiving. The wise ones spoke in parables and metaphor because that is the form that penetrates and transcends our defenses. We go to some deeper part of ourselves; non-linear and non-cerebral, which is what meditation is.
A Disciple is a fascinating exploration about how meditation can not only awaken our latent potential to live the best lives we can, but also transform the world.

February 23, 2022One man’s fascinating search for spiritual truth and enlightenment – A Disciple.
A Disciple is the story of someone whose life has been clearly steered by Spirit’s energy.
I’ve so enjoyed this book and am sure that it will be of interest to many readers.
This ‘someone’ is Feroze Dada, who left his career with a successful professional practice to begin his quest for spiritual enlightenment. Increasingly unsatisfied by his business life, he experienced the first of the many ‘coincidences’ that have shaped his life. One of his clients, Ustād, who Feroze felt particularly drawn to, conversation revealed was a highly spiritual teacher and guide.
In time Ustād would share with Feroze that they had in fact been brothers in a previous
incarnation on earth. Ustād agreed to take him on as a pupil.
So began a chain of events that led Feroze to experience many times the arranging by
Spirit to be ‘in the right place at the right time’. For instance, on a family trip to Myanmar,
a sudden storm blew up on a lake during a boat trip. They took urgent refuge in a
nearby monastery which happened to be caring for many children, orphaned by
fighting in the area. Feroze was able to help the monastery to become self-sufficient
via a water-bottling plant and over a thousand children are there now under the wing
of the monastery.
When a doctor was needed for a clinic for the monastery, a ‘chance’
conversation at an airport with a lady re flights revealed that she was a doctor and yes,
she would become the provider of medical care to the children.
Further urgings by Spirit took Feroze to Egypt, where he experienced such extraordinary
visions and events, to Italy where certain meetings were to become so important, all the
time being guided both by his beloved Ustād and by those in Spirit who clearly recognised
him as a willing and responsive ‘foot soldier on earth’.
Feroze, via yet another chance meeting, has joined a group of spiritual healers in North
London and teaches breathwork and meditation in a wish to bring peace, relaxation,
healing, spirituality and positivity to his students. The healers had been advised by
their wonderful medium that a book would be written by someone within the group
to bring light and upliftment to many. A Disciple is the book that Feroze was urged by Spirit to write. Reading through the finished pages, he has no recollection of having written much
of their content and this can only be that Spirit have deeply influenced his mind to say what
they wish to be said.
Anyone seeking to understand their purpose in life, clear evidence of the loving role of Spirit
guides in all our lives, further enlightenment and the value of bringing peace and wellness to
their life via breathing and meditation will find so much of interest and benefit within
Feroze’s book, A Disciple. It sprang from a genuine desire to bring upliftment to others
and this shines through as you read. The book is available from Amazon and I know that
you’ll enjoy it as much as I did.

A thought provoking spiritual journey that rekindled my Silva course and took me back to revisiting the Silva course on Audio!

A Disciple’ by Feroze Dada is an exceptional and beautiful book which traces one man’s spiritual journey on a quest for enlightenment. It is the perfect book for the seeker of truth with an enquiring and open mind… I am adding a chapter to my morning meditation every day so I can really appreciate it…This will inspire so many people. I am one of them.
