FULL DESCRIPTION
 

In Finding No One, writer and entrepreneur Martin Aurum shares an honest account of what it looks like to wake up from what most consider reality. In 2008, he is expecting twin sons, but only one is born alive. It sets in motion a stumbling 17-year journey to heal and know himself. As he descends deeper into consciousness, he witnesses the astonishing immaterial nature of reality and uncovers a shadowy childhood.

Reluctantly, Martin accepts that beyond worldviews, cultures, and traditions, a tailor-made experiential path awaits him. This direct path, neither religious nor dogmatic, leads him still deeper into the mystery of being. To continue, he must keep doing the grueling yet rewarding self-work it requires. Along the way, he documents his use of dynamic practices and self-inquiry to heal and grow beyond loss, abuse, generational trauma, and addiction. This makes the book relevant for men and women seeking ways to work with suffering and find meaning in life's biggest challenges. 

As Martin tries to recover repressed memories, the transcendental mystery deepens. Through the existential quest for his core self, doors open to a vastly expanded reality. As his materialist worldview definitively shatters, he is assisted from both sides of the veil by a love he thought impossible. He learns how everything has purpose, but his life was never just about him. 

Finding No One is no textbook or work of fiction, but a blunt and vivid journal of raw lived experience, reporting from the frontiers of existence. To finally know everything, Martin must first lose all that he is not: Only death before dying can unlock the resonant truth he seeks. The book shows how it's possible to live your story to the end; to see what wonders lie beyond.
