    About this ebook

    I am currently an inmate in a Federal Prison serving my 12th year of a 45-year sentence! If I can find peace and happiness in this type of environment... How is it that people in the ‘free’ world can’t? What is it that I know or what woke me up? I’ve been asked these questions thousands of times and now, following a conversation I had with an inmate, who’s asked these and more, I’m ready to share my thoughts on what I’ve learned with YOU!

    Eddie K. Wright

    First time author Eddie K. Wright is a fitness trainer, Yoga instructor, spiritual motivational speaker and an inmate at a federal prison. His personal transformation upon realizing the Universal laws and love of life, supports his conviction in his "Gangster to Guru" book series. The premier release "VOICE FOR THE SILENT FATHERS" details the struggle and inner conflict with being the parent of a homosexual child in the day, and a known connected gangster at night. Overcoming his "No son of mine" mentality, by realizing the true meaning of unconditional love wasn't easy, but his deep insight, heartfelt honesty, and 'laugh to keep from crying' attitude, makes for a humorous read for anyone touched by this issue which means it's for everyone!

      It’s only right to dedicate this to my dear friend George Sepulveda a.k.a Paradise!

      INTRODUCTION

      We've all heard various stories of spiritual sages who go off into the desert, upon a mountain top, into the wilderness or deep inside a cave for an extended period of time to gain a clear understanding of God or this thing called life. Christian monks considered it a privilege to be locked in a small, damp, dusty room, no bigger than a prison cell, where they are brought meals and all they do is contemplate on the words of the bible.

      The Buddha sat in meditation at the edge of a stream for days until he finally reached his state of Nirvana, claiming to finally awake. Near-death experiences have been said to awaken the inner realization of the true spiritual essence within.

      That's not how it happened for me. My spiritual wake-up call took place in a world of chaos and turmoil, in the school of hard knocks, where I had to finally address all my negative characteristics and traits that supported my gangster mentality in order for me to completely experience a spiritual transformation.

      United States Penitentiary Canaan was my wilderness, and journey to the mountaintop. I wish it was only forty days and forty nights in the desert. That sounds like a cake walk compared to the forty-five-year sentence I was dealing with.

      My discovery of the Universal laws resulted in an intimate relationship with the One Supreme, all-inclusive source of life...GOD. The fact that it took place in an environment that appears to be hell on earth, only adds to its credibility since I was able to find peace and happiness within myself.

      I'm not delusional, or afraid to face my reality, I've been accused of that since the first
