This eBook is in the genre of creative nonfiction. It is based on the autobiography of Hamid Bey which was written by Hamid Bey titled..."My Life Preceding 5,000 burials." So, my eBook is my creative imagination in telling the dramatic story of the life of Master Hamid Bey who could control his heartbeat to 3 beats per minute and could put himself in a trance, "Suspended Animation." This is how he was able to be buried alive and come out breathing just like you and me. Bey also was able to stick pins in his body with no visible marks to be left and he appeared on old "Ed Sullivan Show" to demonstrate his ability to withstand weight when he had Mr. Sullivan stand on his body while he laid on a bed of nails. I am hoping that this eBook will reach millions of listeners so that people will know of the power of the mind as performed by Master Hamid Bey. This also available in audiobook format, please visit www.thecopticcenter.org.

Revised autobiography from the founder of the Coptic Fellowship of America, Hamid Bey who “by many scientists and students [was] considered to be an unusual, or superman,” but who believed his ability to put mind over matter, “unusual as it may be, [was] entirely the result of work and efficient training,” and that any ordinary person in his circumstances might have achieved just as much, “or perhaps more than I.” “[...] never until I met Hamid Bey have I found a man who not only is able to talk wisely, but is able to demonstrate as well as explain. I rejoice exceedingly in this pleasant change in my quest for wisdom. I have been convinced for years of the supremacy of the human mind—that the mind creates and controls the body—but this is the first time in my history when one man can prove this fact until there is no longer any shadow of doubt that this is the truth.” (Harriet Luella McCollum) A fascinating and unmissable read.
