About the Book
Stumbling Into InfinityStumbling Into Infinity is part of a long tradition of spiritual memoirs that began with St. Augustine’s Confessions, 1,600 years ago. It joins such books as Paramhansa Yogananda’s Autobiography of a Yogi and Carlos Castaneda’s Teachings of Don Juan, in opening readers to new experiences and ways of seeing the world by letting them live the experience with the author. And, in Michael Fischman’s case, the experiences were not all rosy. Stumbling Into Infinity is a personal story that begins with the son of a Holocaust survivor, in an Orthodox Jewish household. As an adult, Michael gives up a successful career as a Madison Avenue advertising executive, and , through a mysterious turn of events, ends up in the unlikely position of friend and helper to a great humanitarian and spiritual leader. Michael re-lives inner traumas, failed attractions, a fight at an Indian ashram, glimpses of wisdom, and a blossoming of love and devotion.

“MY FATHER used to tell me a story about two rabbis who had a large following in their village. During an especially long, cold, winter, one of the rabbis purchased a coat, the other lit a fire. The first warmed himself, while the second provided warmth for anyone who wanted to come near. My spiritual teacher and mentor, Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, is a fire lighter. He brings warmth to the soul and light to darkness. He is wise, charming, mischievous, and kind. For the last twenty years, I have dedicated my life to sharing and growing on a spiritual path that has brought fulfillment and happiness to millions of people around the world.” – Michael Fischman
