The Slave

What are we, as human beings, slaves to? Childhood traumas? What someone else decided we should be? An unfulfilling relationship, a job we don't like or the tedious routine of our lives?

Mexican writer and spiritual teacher Anand Dilvar's phenomenal book The Slaveis the story of a nameless narrator who is trapped in a vegetative state following a terrible accident that has paralyzed his whole body. Unable to communicate with friends and family, he begins an inner conversation with his spiritual guide, which leads him onto an emotional and raw journey of self-realization.
