Urban Mystic Book

 Hi Ken.  I recently finished reading your book. What a fantastic read. I still have it on the bedside as I’m considering giving it another go straight away!

Like all good books I became immersed in the story and in this case I felt like I was becoming awakened with you. What a lovely sensation. 

Your writing and story also encouraged me to have a good think about some issues close to home, resulting in a rather large  Ah ha moment for me.

Things are already getting better on that front. So many thanks for a good read and the nudge in a better direction.  Kind Regards, Rowan

Jim and I were talking recently on the telephone and he said, “Reading your book is just like a meditation, like meditating. It’s very easy and enjoyable to read. I find I can relate directly to a lot of what is written; and frequently pause in order to digest the old experiences my reading stimulates me to remember.” Thanks Jim. I love the feedback.

Have you ever asked yourself how a seemingly ordinary man becomes extraordinary, and what the difference between the two is? Urban Mystic is a book that takes the reader on an extraordinary journey through this process. Ken Mellor’s description of his quest for enlightenment is so compelling, it will entice you to keep reading, absorbing and digesting all that you can, until the very last word.

This is one of my all time favourite books. Rarely does an author provide such personal insight into their awakening journey. I loved the variety, raw honesty and genuine sense of adventure. A wonderful real life story with fantastic teachings.

Buy this book, you will not be disappointed. A truly great read !

This book has it all – unputdownable – I read it in about 10 days, which is highly irregular for me. This guy is the totally ‘real deal’ – he provides personal accounts of stuff that NO ONE writes about in the first person – especially not in such a chatty and candid way. Meditative journeys, energy states, being sure and unsure on life’s mystical path – it’s all there – including the meaning of life (no kidding). In short the book has been an enriching and loving experience – I am all the better for it!

For anyone on the spiritual path this is a must read. The author, psychotherapist and Meditation Master Ken Mellor pulls no punches when describing the ups and downs of his spiritual journey. With candor, humor and integrity he takes us on a fascinating read. And like other books, where the authors have truly realized what it is they are writing about, it had a profound impact on me. Easy to read, it has a depth and clarity that is palpable and contains many spiritual practices that people could easily put into their daily life. Once I started I could not put the book down.

Fantastic news , many congratulations , so well deserved.

I got my copy from Amazon some months ago – am reading it in small chunks as I’m not a fast reader; very much  enjoying sharing your journey as the paragraphs unfold; this is supporting and encouraging me through the unknowns of my own journey, particularly when doubt & uncertainty regarding my own abilities & capacity threaten to stifle my growth. Thank you.

This is great news and so deserved. I found the book inspiring for my awakening, easy to read and gripping in parts.

Congratulations! AND I’m not surprised!

I thought it was a great read. I was “touched, moved, and inspired” by it. Thank you for the labour of writing it.

I’ve talked to friends about it, and in fact sent my coy to my friend in Thailand who I met at one of your meditation classes in Manchester UK, about 15+ years ago!

He also thought it was great.

Congratulations! I took the book with me on a recent visit to Australia but never opened it until the journey home. I read the whole book from cover to cover during (what could have been a very arduous) 56 hour journey from Australia to UK. I arrived home feeling relaxed and experienced no jet lag whatsoever!

I attribute this to the inspiration I felt reading Urban mystic!

Thank you for sharing so much of your journey.
