One Monk, Many Masters

Meer over het boek

Set against the backdrop of 1969, the narrative follows Paul Breiter, a young man disillusioned with Western culture, who embarks on a quest for spiritual fulfillment in the East. Initially drawn to India for sensory indulgence, he unexpectedly finds himself in a Thai monastery, embracing the austere life of a Buddhist monk. Over seven transformative years, he experiences profound deprivation rather than indulgence, leading to a deeper understanding of spirituality and self-discovery.
