Summary

Brandon Nagha was born with the gift of hearing "voices," just as some people are born with the gift of being extraordinary artists, scientists, or athletes. Throughout his life, he develops this unusual talent, eventually gaining the ability to hear, see, and communicate with the spiritual world. In that world, an omnipresent sun illuminates beautiful meadows filled with lovely flowers that change color and aroma to please it. But at the same time, his investigations can lead him to dark areas where wicked people, full of hatred, engage in fights for any reason, hurting each other and then moving on with their lives as if nothing happened. Romance, revelations, dreams in code, suspense, and even a touch of terror become part of his life as he searches the other world for answers to solve problems in our physical world. Brandon chooses to define himself as a shaman, not because he's completely convinced of being one, but because it's the definition that comes closest to what he does. Accidentally, he also embraces the role of an investigator, excelling as an undisputed champion due to his unconventional yet effective methods, his perspective, and the reputation he gains through the cases he works on.

PREFACE

Many ask me if Brandon Nagha is actually a pseudonym that I am using to tell my own stories without being affected by successes and failures. The answer is no, I am not a shaman, I am not a spiritualist and as far as I know, I do not have the ability to hear voices from the Spirit World. I am a writer who tells stories about the life of a shaman named Brandon Nagha.

Others, when they read my books also ask me if Brandon Nagha is a real person or an imaginary character. That question is not so easy to answer and I deliberately leave it under a a state of uncertainty. Perhaps there exists or has existed a child who from a young age heard voices, that often those voices got him into trouble, that over the years he found an explanation for his problems thanks to a teacher who guided him, ordered his ideas and transformed him into someone happy and very useful to society.

It depends on the reader, who ultimately finishes "writing the book."

It is in the reader’s freedom to put themselves in the shoes of Brandon Nagha, a child who grows up aware that he is different, that he was born with the gift of hearing “voices” that come to him as ideas and that throughout his life he develops that talent with the aim of building a better world.

In this journey throughout his life that I have to narrate, Brandon Nagha will become more and more aware of how important it is to master his unusual gift, listen to the voice of his conscience, and lead a life where ethics and high principles must be respected with great care to avoid deviating and being used by those voices for a purpose different from that of his dreams.

Brandon Nagha considers himself a completely normal person, he even thinks that any of us should easily hear the voices of the spirit world, but he also knows that he is one of the few people who was born with that ability. Just as other people are born with the gift of being extraordinary singers, painters or athletes, he was born with the possibility of hearing, seeing and speaking with the spiritual world.

That world is quite different from the physical world we all know. There, the most beautiful places can be a short distance from horrible areas where people with dirty hearts spend their lives hating, lying and fighting each other. From beautiful meadows full of beautiful flowers that change color and aroma to please him, he can go to dark areas of the spiritual world where evil people fight each other for any reason, hurt each other and a second later continue their lives as if nothing had happened.

Despite leading a very austere life, Brandon Nagha often earns a lot of money in his work as a researcher. His unconventional but effective methods, his vision and the fame he is achieving through the cases he works on, led him to be called to cooperate with the government’s intelligence offices, where Brandon stands out as an undeniable champion.

Judge for yourselves, dear readers, if my stories are the result of the stories that the shaman told me, or are the fruit of someone’s imagination. Some things that surprised us throughout history, so much so that we classified them as false, over time ended up becoming habitual among all people. Perhaps the fact of relating to the spirit world is the great surprise that the future has prepared for all people, not just some chosen ones.
