Or copy and paste from the webs lol


The book is about Julian Mantle who is a successful lawyer but is full of tensions and work pressure, who finally decides to leave his baggage of past and luxurious life behind and goes to Himalayan Mountains in search of peace.

There he comes across Yogi Raman: One of the great sages of Sivana, who teaches him various things to enlighten his life. After few months Julian comes back to meet John and narrates him all the fables and teachings of Yogi Raman.

The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari mainly describes the Seven virtues for a life overflowing with inner peace, joy and wealth of spiritual gifts.

The book develops around two characters, Julian Mantle and his best friend John, in the form of conversation. Julian narrates his spiritual experiences during a Himalayan journey which he undertook after selling his holiday home and red Ferrari.

Julian Mantle was a successful lawyer, who leaves his practice after his health fails. He then joins the sages of Sivana in the mystical land of Sivana and discovers the path to enlightenment. Mantle wants to share the secrets to lead an enriched life with his friend John, who was also his colleague in the past. The fictional conversation between Julian and John is the core of the book where the author shares a number of techniques to help the reader live happily and healthily.

But in reality, it’s a book about passion, imagination and dreaming. It’s a book to remind you of what it was like to be a child filled with limitless potential and wonder.

Me neither, but I will take the ban all the same if some sensitive soul got upset the bad man said mean things about fingers old dear.

My point was you don’t start shit with people, over and over again and expect to hide behind a fucking transient episode your mother suffered.

I don’t share that kind of stuff here but I have been the primary carer for a family member of mine for 5 years of my life, dealing with ridiculous shit, AI shut my life down to look after them. I didn’t use it as an excuse to act the cunt, I habe more respect for them than that.
