Review Twin authors affect readers on the deepest cerebral levels with their shared existential perspectives in a work that centers on the purpose of human existence, What is Man. By examining matters through the lenses of the tenets of Christianity and Buddhism, this book poses an intellectually unique offering for the mind and soul, whereas the authors heartily delve into the existential issues that plague all humans; Why are we here? Who are we really? What are we? Entirely built from a perspective that looks at human existence as being more deeply entrenched in spirit than the physical. The brothers, provide readers with a lucidly penetrating assessment of the tangible versus the intangible nature of life by evaluating topics like; human relationships, sources of energy in the universe, the power of the unconscious mind, God vs Devil and the intangible yet very real energy of Love. Moreover, this divinely inspired narrative imparts a compelling comparative examination of the philosophical, religious and scientific viewpoints on the elements pertinent to attaining spiritual growth and enlightenment. Easily comprehendible, the text conveys this essential mindset in distinctly literate, and uncomplicated terms. Furthermore, the authors support their postulations with the inclusion of thought-stimulating quotes and passages from the Bible, along with inspiring comments from some of the greatest thinking minds in philosophy, life and the sciences, ergo creating with this book a lasting cognitive impression. I found What is Man, to be an intriguingly edifying read with some great "aha" moments that will definitely make a connection with the spiritually inclined reader. This is a read definitely worth looking into if you are seeking to dive deeply into your spiritual life. - Lisa Brown-Gilbert. Pacific Book ReviewA compelling message that will help readers find answers to the complex questions they have about happiness, real freedom, love, and the purpose of life.

The voice is clear and compassionate and readers will enjoy the relevant and masterful interpretation of some of the words of Jesus. What Is Man: is engaging, inspirational, and downright honest. Ro and Mo give readers a peek at the mystery of the human person and what he or she is called to be. Here is a book that can change your life. - Divine Zape. Readers' FavoriteA spiritual classic that considers one of the rarely asked questions but one that haunts the human mind. The very moment I read this title, I recalled the words of the philosopher, the cynic Diogenes, who sauntered the streets of Athens with a lamp at broad daylight, claiming to be looking for man. But the beauty of this book is that it isn't the work of a cynic because it carries within each line depth and truth and wisdom. A book written by two siblings on one of the crucial questions of life -- meaning or purpose. It is very inspiring and motivational. - Romuald Dzemo Readers' Favorite"The Ego is a consciousness, which is created by the great consciousness to extend itself into a new consciousness of the same."In this engaging text, Sri Lankan twin brothers Rohan (now deceased) and Mohan Perera explicate their philosophy of life and religion. Based on a framework of Christianity, their shared viewpoint also encompasses some Buddhist ideals. The authors believe that since love existed before humanity, it is to this pure love that humans must return through diligent seeking, the development of conscience, and the gradual acquisition of wisdom. The writing style of What Is Man is plain and rational, underscoring the excellent intellectual grounding of both authors. There is occasional humor and some original poetry. The main body of the book is peppered with numerous quotations--from Einstein, Hawking, Gandhi, with the vast majority coming from the New Testament, focused on the life and teachings of Jesus. Throughout, it is notable that the Perera brothers have assembled their ideas carefully, utilizing various interesting methods to share their unconventional but logic-based theories regarding life's meaning and purpose. - Barbara Bamberger Scott. (United States)'s Review of BooksThe authors used a combination of writing styles to give me new insight into Christianity; the two styles of writing merge together with perfect symmetry. I found that the authors' use of lyrical analogies and metaphors to be beautifully chosen to enthrall me with the wonders of Christ. I was beyond pleased to find that others also agree with the fact that the existence of science does not automatically prove the non-existence of Christ. I really enjoyed learning more about Christ from Rohan and Mohan. - Sefina Hawke. Readers' FavoriteWhat Is Man, from Mohan Perera and Rohan Perera, is a rich exploration of the human condition from psychological and faith perspectives.The book begins with a doxology of sorts, offering a classical take on the fall of humanity, the Trinity, and the need for salvation. Writing has a call-and-response quality that is almost poetic. Each stanza begins with a short declaration, and lines alternate between theological aspirations and lived realities.The most insightful parts of the text explore how love can be easily misplaced. The authors examine the connections between love and sex, love and money, and love and self, using "what is man"--or what it means to be human--as a central theological question throughout. The book's focus on contemporary psychology shifts the focus slightly, from humanity to the human mind.What Is Man? is a theological work that puts the emphasis on the mind, in hopes that the heart will follow it to spiritual salvation and redemption.
 - Jeremiah Rood. Foreword Magazine From the Author In this refined volume, What is Man from the World of Ro and Mo, we share with you, the blessings of the visceral Oneness of life, which we experienced being twins. And thus, our comprehension of the meaning of life that sourced from our passionate journey in the search for answers as to why we were born, and the purpose of life.In doing so, we reveal the mystery of the Oneness and Duality of Matter and Energy, Light and Spirit, Conscious and Conscience and, of the Father and Son - the oneness of Love and Life in all things; and bilaterally bring clarity to the teachings of Christ, in the modern empirical world as it unravelled and illuminated us.Life is difficult! In fact, it was difficult at the time of Jesus, so he instructed the people of his time to pray to the Father: "not to lead them into temptation, but deliver from life's most significant stumbling block, our divinely bestowed self-consciousness - ego."The greatest gift of God to humanity is to become infinitely conscious, i.e., 'knowing with' the mind of God and realise the eternal omnipresence of peace and love that is, in fact, the Life Eternal.When we live as one, there is peace and love.
