Synopsis

From time to time, the "haves" of society shape and manipulate the type of information the "have-nots" absorb and become.

The "haves" tamper with information so to control the type of thoughts and actions the "have-nots" might conjure. If the "have-nots" were free to think freely, they might challenge the status quo. If the current state of affairs is modified, "the haves" might lose their status as "the haves" and the power they're accustom to.

The accumulation of each instance has birthed an illusion and every person is subject to the misinformation. To make matters worse, most people are born with a trusting mindset and do not expect the deception. Nor are they prepared for it.

The mystery is worldwide and evident throughout written history. The manner in which the world is presented isn't complete and fabrications are scattered throughout the chronology.

This is an interactive version. After each article space is provided for you to share your thoughts, ideas, etc. inspired by the writings within.

About the Author

"The pen is mightier than the sword", and this has been rightly asserted by Mike Bhangu.  He's proven to be a warrior in the literal world, who readily challenges the status quo and questions the rigid norms of society.  Born in Canada, this author accidentally built an intuitive and instinctive relationship with philosophy, spiritual science, political science, economics, and ancient history, to reveal the true nature of reality.

Mike confesses that writing has been his fascination since childhood, and expressing his thoughts gives him peace.  His love for writing is obvious and he takes on various roles in his books--a social reformer, a philosopher,and an explorer of religions.  The unique and exquisite talent of this author makes him a real hero among his followers.

Bhangu does not adhere to just one sphere or section of living, each of his books is different from the other, and his works are a testimony to Mike's ability to grasp the bigger picture and explicitly explore its many layers.  Several of the books written by Mike:

A Beautiful Destruction
I am Mouse
Confessions
Sikhie Secrets
War and Religion
Angel vs. Demon
Distracted and Defeated
War 101
Jesus vs. Jesus

The Rebellious Slave
Rediscovering the Truth

Bhangu's astonishing and unique ability to narrate things as they truly are, and his capacity to travel "outside the box", has given him wide acceptance among his readers.  Take a read through his books and judge for yourself.
