      Odhalené tajemství je ojedinělá a převratná kniha hovořící o konečném osvobození, které nevyžaduje žádné úsilí, postupy, procesy ani víru. Autor ke knize napsal: "V mládí jsem měl pocit, že musí existovat nějaká jiná možnost, která transformuje všechny a všechno, jakmile je jednou uskutečněna. Jednoho dne se tato možnost stala skutečností, a to velmi prostou a běžnou, úchvatnou i převratnou. Je to odhalené tajemství, které se zjevuje ve všech oblastech našeho života. Nepřichází však skrze naše pokusy změnit svůj život, ale jako přímé znovuobjevení toho, co je tím, co žije."
