Publisher's Synopsis
Dr. Amitava Dasgupta was born in Calcutta, India, in 1958 to a Hindu mother and an atheist father. A natural skeptic, he spent his early years searching for the meaning of life in the books of both theologians and scientists, but to no avail. It was not until many decades later, in 2011, that he witnessed a real life miracle that forever changed his worldview and transformed him from a fallen Hindu into a Bible believing Christian. With the help of award-winning writer Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook, Dr. Dasgupta has turned this story into an enlightening book entitled, Autobiography of a Non-Yogi: A Scientist's Journey From Hinduism to Christianity.
Take this fascinating personal expedition of discovery with Dr. Dasgupta, one that spans the fields of parapsychology, quantum mechanics, astronomy, theology, thealogy, anthropology, archaeology, and cosmology, and learn how modern science is beginning to prove religion true: the soul survives bodily death and lives on in a beautiful and unseen realm, awaiting loved ones who are still on earth. "A powerful book of hope and faith that will inspire all who read it, whatever their personal views." - The Publisher.
