Klappentext
Stumbling Into Infinity is a spiritual memoir that shares the personal journey of someone with an Orthodox Jewish upbringing, an abusive childhood, and some rough edges, who leaves his career as a Madison Avenue advertising executive and winds up in the unlikely position of friend and helper to a great humanitarian and spiritual leader (Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, founder of one of the world's largest volunteer-based NGOs). What is it like to become an intimate friend to an enlightened master? What knowledge is shared behind closed doors with such a person? And how does someone with normal problems and limitations operate in this rarified world? Or can he?

Zusammenfassung
"Stumbling Into Infinity" is the intimate and sometimes startling account of Fischman's spiritual journey and the encounter that changed his life forever. The author reflects on the chain of events that led him to his role as friend to a renowned humanitarian and spiritual leader.
