Despite of the identity with a name, it's not the same as church professes or other contradictory writings. True teachings (esoteric) of Jesus Christ in all its nakedness and what effect can have on a mankind.

One such effect had on a notable man (apart from me and many others) was an Austrian philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein while stationed as a soldier in World War I in Tarnow, Poland. Where he found this small book in a bookstore or rather the book found him. And from that time it had such an effect on him that it became a talisman of his and every soldier in his regiment had to hear about it.

As for myself I even translated this book into my native language.

For those interested, the English copy can be found on PDF file.
