Many of us go through life not knowing how to change ourselves, and much less face adversity with a renewed set of values. It may take years to even realize that we have a spiritual problem to solve. And still, when that moment comes, most can’t find the answers they seek in any religious congregation.

Our spiritual battles tend to be more devastating and hurtful than any others, and the increasing consumption of antidepressants, as well as the rapidly increasing number of suicides in the world tell us exactly that. As a matter of fact, it is in countries with the highest suicide rates that this spiritual war becomes so obvious, for various reasons that this book explains in detail.

Due to lack of sufficient knowledge on how to handle spiritual confrontations, most of us tend to face repetitive problems, and even succumb into self-abasement. This occurs because we were taught the wrong things by our parents and school teachers, many times even by our priests and spiritual leaders, while being led into believing that the social values we grew up with were correct. And well, they are not. But as adults we can’t face that anymore, as it makes us rethink our true nature, question our entire existence, and while forcing us to rediscover our true self. The work, and the consequences of its results, even if positive, is immense. And this is why most people don’t want to change, even when knowing that they need to, including when seeing themselves self-destroy their own life.

We then wonder why those around us don’t change, when we see in them things that require an urgent shift of attitude; and yet, we rarely look at ourselves to ask why we can’t or won’t change. And along this path, we go through life complaining about others and not looking at our real self, our identity and the core of our heart, all of what makes us humans of a spiritual nature. That, obviously, demands a deep introspection and a confrontation in front of the mirror of truth. And the vast majority of the population, either doesn’t want to do that, or doesn’t possess the necessary weapons to withstand the turmoil that unravels within during those very dark moments. Instead of that, most choose to wear a mask of goodness, and here we find another spiritual trap in which the vast majority falls easily.

We can only overcome such states of mind by looking at what we are doing with our life and with ourselves; and before we can even recognize the deep web of complexities we are in. Only afterwards, can we start seeking for answers that make any sense, and lead to effective results. And if you have reached this stage so far in your life, this book is surely for you, for it will guide you towards the values and rules that make people want to change, while explaining how such changes are made.

This is not just a book about how to change yourself, help others, or face a spiritual warfare, but also a book that will give you the full spectrum of what changes are, and while explaining why most people always change, quite often, for worse. And so, with this in mind, it is hoped that this compilation of information can guide you towards your most desired dreams, and despite the paradigms of the masses which are destined only to entrap you.
