Ecstacy of the Atma

About the Book

Is it worth the loss of your soul? The people you killed and the wages they earned, Were you not just like the shot man shot down? Amidst friends, family and girls all around, The wheel of karma never stops spinning, In this game of life, there is no winning, The rich and poor all share the similar fate, So prepare your heart for the unknown date, By removing from your soul all inkling of hate.

About the Author

Mario Thomas Noel (born August 9, 1984) is a Trinidad and Tobago writer. He was raised in a staunch Catholic upbringing by his mother Mary, a professional nurse and father Chrys. He attended San-Fernando Boys’ Government School and later attended Pleasantville Senior and Couva Private Grammar where he obtained his school leaving certificates. At 26, he received the President’s award from President George M. Richards for his participation in the program. His studies into the different ethnicities and religions of his country led him to explore Hinduism, Islam and Buddhism. After a subsequent nervous breakdown, he began working odd jobs at a Resort hotel, greenhouse nursery and multinational warehouse shopping chain store. It is from this, inspiration was given for this first book Ecstasy of the Atma.
