“180 Degrees To God: Sitting With a Modern Mystic” by Sharam with poetry by Shahed Harris. Including paintings by Sharam. Book Design by No Mind Design.“There are many wrong teachings that we learn from society as a child. Ultimately they prove to be right because later on they cause suffering, and too much suffering causes us to seek the truth, or God. In this book, we see how truth is one hundred and eighty degrees opposite to what we have learned.” —Sharam.One day during a class, Sharam said, “People all around the world are suffering, are miserable, and are looking for help. What is said in these sittings could really help them. We should collect these sittings for future generations, for your kids, for anyone looking for inner freedom.” So we have. 180 Degrees to God is a collection of students' actual one-on-one sittings with Sharam. It gives readers a “fly on the wall” perspective of how a mystic responds to the everyday issues of his students and of life. We see, as Sharam maneuvers through the arguments of the mind and the ego, how, with the understandings revealed by a master, the mind and the ego will gradually release their grip on us, opening the door to the love and ecstasy we are all yearning for.
