This book illustrates the formation
of my spiritual (religious) ideas
developed mainly in the context of
the Christian faith. My ideas have
been formed slowly and rely on
church attendance, Bible reading
(mainly the New Testament), books
of review and radio and television
programs, of which there were many
in my formative period. My ideas
also rely on my own life experience
such as 33 years of mental illness
and hospitalisations As I probed the
doctrines and beliefs, I gradually
came to dismiss or modify them to
form a logical and truthful faith.
The most critical aspect of my search
for the truth came by way of the sales
tax case (described in more detail in
the book), which triggered my first
manic episode back in 1984. From
that time on, I learned to follow
the leading of God through my
manic episodes from 1984 to 2017.
Each episode, though unusual and
very manic, taught me to follow
Gods will until I truly became a
servant of God in my daily life. I
am a much more caring and sharing
person now than I was before my
first episode. I have learned that God
is the spirit of goodness, and I try to
let Gods Holy Spirit (inner voice) of
love, truth, kindness etc. invade my
spiritual and daily life.
