About this listen
The reception accorded to The Initiate has been at once gratifying, instructive, and curious. No less than three different people have claimed to be its author and confided this intelligence to one of my friends “in the know”, who, with considerable amusement, passed it on to me without, I may add, divulging their names; neither did he inform them of the identity of the real author.

Story
We had been in India about two years, doing regular routine research work, when I met the Master known in these writings as Emil. While walking along a street in the city where we were staying, my attention was attracted to a crowd. I saw the center of interest was one of the street magicians, or fakirs, that are so common in that country. As I stood there I noticed beside me an elderly man who was not of the same caste as those about him. He looked at me and asked if I had been long in India.

In this remarkable novel, Mauriac brings his extraordinary talent for probing the inmost core of the human character to what is arguably the most exciting theme in the world: the battle for the human soul. In all of literature there can be few more appalling studies of a soul devoured by pride and avarice, corroded by hatred.

I loved the story
I learned a-lot from this book; the story was intriguing. However, the narrator could have sounded a bit more energetic and enthusiastic I found his tone and narration to be a bit monotonous. Regardless the wisdom that’s been shared through him is profound and I’m grateful to have came across this piece.

Don’t get this book and wish I had these hours back
First of all, the narrator of this book was painful. It was a slow, stoner-ish drawl that I had to speed up to 1.3x to make it tolerable.
And even though I though of aborting this book multiple times, I forged ahead for some reason. The story wasn’t interesting and was bizarrely lame. It was anything but enlightening or wise. It sounded like it was written by an 80-something man who spoke of the women he met at every moment, and felt it necessary to talk about the looks of each woman he encounters (weird) and if he was attracted to her or not.
3 hours in there were a few interesting perspectives on karma. But that was it.
I don’t know if I was referred this book or how it got it my library but it hilarious to me that the writer says others have tried to take credit for writing it. Why on earth would anyone do that?
