Author drank cobra venom to explore the hereafter

The foundation for happiness is inner peace, and inner peace is food that feeds the soul to make us feel secure and at ease with the world. Inner peace is achieved by expanding our awareness and consciousness enough to grasp the oneness of everything, according to authors Jamshid Hosseini and Dave Cunningham in Travel Within: The 7 Steps to Wisdom and Inner Peace (O-Books, John Hunt Publishing, Ltd.).

The original concept of the book came from Jamshid Hosseini, who encountered a near-death experience by voluntarily drinking a concoction of tea and milk laced with cobra venom that produced searing pain throughout his body.  He literally died for several minutes and then recovered.  During the time he was dead, what he experienced was so remarkable and moving, it inspired him to write the Seven Steps to Wisdom and Inner Peace.  The book is a virtual recipe for peace that the authors hope will spread throughout the world, one person at a time, and perhaps even lead a trend toward universal peace.  Travel Within is born of a mystical, near-death vision and supported by research in the fields of science, religion and philosophy.     

Everything we see in the world around us is the way we want to see it – not the way it really is.  It’s no wonder the human race finds it difficult to experience inner peace, with approximately 110 wars being fought around the world right now, and almost one-third of them are major armed conflicts involving many deaths.  At least 11 nations possess nuclear weapons, and more than 30,000 warheads are pointed in directions all over the planet right now.

Travel Within: The 7 Steps to Wisdom and Inner Peace (O-Books, John Hunt Publishing, Ltd.), is a spiritual self-help book written to appeal to dreamers and doubters alike.  The goal of the authors, Jamshid Hosseini and Dave Cunningham, is to elevate human consciousness enough that we may avoid the catastrophic disaster ahead of us that has been predicted by scientists, politicians and most major religions.

Jamshid “Jim” Hosseini has been rich and poor, Persian and American, Hindu and Buddhist, alive and dead.  During his worldwide journey, he lived on a hill overlooking a king’s palace in Iran and was beaten by Muslims for practicing the Baha’i Faith, begged for food in India, and labored for a monk in Katmandu.  He took counsel from the famous Rajneesh in Pune and built his own successful business in California. Dave Cunningham was the ghost writer of Travel Within and is author and/or editor of seven non-fiction books and novels, including his inspirational novel, Messages; he is an award-winning journalist whose work has appeared in magazines and newspapers worldwide.
