THE MOPINOMICON
An Enlightenment Manual for People Who Hate Enlightenment Manuals
Book One in a series - with more madness on the way.
WARNING: This book is not normal. It's a dropped lasagna made of weapons-grade spiritual intuition - and somehow, it's still the best meal you've ever had.
Forget the monk on the mountaintop. This is what happens when the universe cracks open for a depressed, divorced janitor holding a mop and blasting the Goonies soundtrack - and decides to show him everything anyway.
When Bodie Satva accidentally stumbled through the veil of reality during a routine cleaning shift, he wasn't met with gentle harps and angelic choirs. He was thrown headfirst into a cosmic clusterfuck of surreal astral pubs, chaotic interdimensional road trips, and startling truths - wisdom translated into a language only Bodie could understand. This isn't your grandma's spiritual guidebook - it's a wisdom text for the modern age, written by a guy who hopes to crack your mind open by osmosis alone, even though he's still figuring things out himself.
For readers who want their spiritual awakening served with a side of profanity - think if Douglas Adams wrote a memoir about hitting rock bottom and finding God in a stairwell.
This is the kind of book that shoves Frankenstein and Nietzsche off the shelf and takes their spot before diving back into the depths of obscurity - a deranged self-help manual with the audacity to actually make you laugh.
INSIDE, YOU'LL DISCOVER:
A Raw and Relatable Journey - a story that begins with severe depression and a failed marriage and unfolds into an unexpected, mind-bending spiritual awakening
The Universe as a Cosmic Joke - why life is the ultimate video game played on Nightmare Mode, and enlightenment is realizing you were in on the joke all along
Unconventional Wisdom - profound truths through the lens of absurdity, from astral gnomes to arguments with your own ego in a corporate high-rise
A Guide to Your Own Insanity (and Growth) - the big questions about suffering, interconnectedness, and the afterlife, tackled with zero pretense
A Cast of Cosmic Characters - a ten-foot-tall future version of the author named Kevin, gods and ghosts chilling in an astral bar, and Pogo, the enlightened elephant who steers a pirate ship through the cosmos
Written with a profane, fourth-wall-breaking style, The Mopinomicon is a chaotic, heartwarming, laugh-out-loud exploration of what it means to be human in a universe far weirder - and more wonderful - than you can imagine.
Not for the easily offended. Perfect for everyone else - those who never fit in, those who always felt there was more to life, those who want to know the secrets of the universe, those with a passing interest in janitorial work, and everyone in between.
***** It's like a modern day Fear and Loathing... take a ride, lose your mind, find it again - oh no, it was just spaghetti! 10/10 wonderful read. - Verified Amazon Reviewer
If you're tired of sanitized spiritual advice and ready for a guide that feels like a conversation with a hilarious, enlightened friend...
