According to Barker, who first published the book in the 1960s, Rampa's claim that his body had been taken over by a Tibetan Buddhist monk was in no way disproved. In fact, Barker provides a letter from a Tibetan Buddhist scholar stating that Rampa's writings about the inner workings of Tibetan Buddhism were quite accurate and actually revealed closely guarded secrets of the Himalayan monasteries.

T. Lobsang Rampa was preordained to be a Tibetan priest, a sign from the stars that could not be ignored. When he left his wealthy home to enter the monastery, his heart was filled with trepidation, with only a slight knowledge of the rigorous spiritual training and physical ordeal that awaited him. This is his story, a hauntingly beautiful and deeply inspiring journey of awakening within Chakpori Lamasery, the temple of Tibetan medicine.

Publisher's Summary
This audiobook is not a work of fiction, but was transmitted to the author via mental telepathy from his pet cat. Yes, you read that correctly. This is the first audiobook ever written by a cat, Mrs. Fifi Greywhiskers!
"You've gone off your head, Fifi," said the Lama. "Who will believe that you have written a book?" He smiled down at me and rubbed under my chin, just the way I liked, before he left the room on some business.
I sat and pondered. "Why should I not write a book? True, I am a cat, but I am not an ordinary cat. I am a Siamese cat who has traveled far and seen much. Of course, I am old, and not a little blind, but is that not good reason why I should put on paper the events of my life while I am still able?
Here, then, is my version of "Living with the Lama" and the happiest days of my life - days of sunshine after a lifetime of shadows.

Are you are wondering if you can skip this one?
Yes. The story is ok but not essential if you are reading through the Rampa books in order like I have been. There are some passing reference to esoteric subjects but as a whole it is a story of a cats life from the cats perspective. The audio quality is not great in my opinion either.

I have never written a review before so not sure what to write outher than I loved this. the narrator has a lovely tone to his voice and the story was very interesting. I have in the past had lots of cats and really do feel they communicate with their owners. I will definitely look for outher books read by Michael sharp.

A classic of alienation and horror, The Birds was immortalized by Hitchcock in his celebrated film. The five other chilling stories in this collection echo a sense of dislocation and mock man's dominance over the natural world. The mountain paradise of "Monte Verità" promises immortality, but at a terrible price; a neglected wife haunts her husband in the form of an apple tree; a professional photographer steps out from behind the camera and into his subject's life.
