The Manya: A Way to Be (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781543183207)

Back in 1991 writer, researcher and broadcaster Alan Butler found himself in the worst circumstances his life had ever known. Lost in a relationship that was doomed to failure, suffering from a chronic back condition and incapacitated by agoraphobia it began to seem as though the morning would never come and that anxiety and doubt would always be present. Then one night Alan had a dream. The experience was so vivid and seemed so absolutely real that Alan felt obliged to rise from his bed and to start writing immediately. What emerged was the Manya, the most extraordinary book Alan Butler has ever produced. Once the book was finished it was as if the clouds slowly began to part. The simple advice that the Manya contained about life offered Alan a very different view, not only of his own circumstances but regarding every facet of the world and its apparent troubles. For a long time Alan never considered publishing this extraordinary little book but he was eventually prevailed upon to do so. Now in its third edition the Manya continues to give to others what that original dream gave to a very troubled individual. Alan Butler states that he is no guru, simply a person who looked for help and guidance and was lucky enough to be given it. The Manya is not a religion but sound advice that comes from the core of spirituality that exists all around us if only we choose to see it. Alan has always avoided offering any explanation regarding the Manya because the book speaks to different people in different ways. If it influences you as it did him and has so many other people, it might just change your life beyond measure.
