{"product_id":"the-man-in-the-mountain-bikram-dhillon-9781939548511","title":"The Man in the Mountain: Book 1, Awakening","description":"In this richly textured philosophical novel about regaining our highest purpose, Bikram Dhillon writes the story of Yosh, an orphan raised by a beloved grandfather. When his grandfather dies, the young man falls into a dangerous depression, even contemplating suicide, but before doing anything drastic he decides to learn more about a mysterious medallion found in his grandfather's belongings. It is cracked in half and indecipherable, but Yosh suspects it holds clues to his grandfather's life. His investigations lead him to friends of his grandfather who live on a ranch near Santa Fe. He spends time there learning details about his grandfather's remarkable life that he had never known. He discovers that his grandfather's life had been transformed by a philosophy learned from his rancher friends. As Yosh commits himself to studying this philosophy, it begins to wake him from what he had perceived as the nightmare of life.Still eager for wisdom, Yosh seeks out Mideol, the reclusive \"man in the mountain\" who had enlightened his grandfather's teachers and, he hopes, holds the key to even deeper insights. If fictionalized philosophy were music we would be hearing leitmotifs from Hesse, Camus, Gurdjieff and Castaneda.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bikram Dhillon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1939548519\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781939548511\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Calumet Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/07\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 250\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.82lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.57d","brand":"Bikram Dhillon","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48807446610175,"sku":"9781939548511","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-man-in-the-mountain-bikram-dhillon-9781939548511","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
