About the Author:

For thirty years, Roy Dimond worked with at

risk families and presented workshops at universities

and colleges. Roy draws inspiration for his novels

from a combination of this experience and his varied

explorations of such locales as Cuzco, Kyoto, Santorini

and Tsumago. Five years of research and travel

reinforced with fifty years of meditation culminated in

The Singing Bowl  and it’s powerful message.

Dimond lives with his wife in Garden Bay, a small fishing village on the

Sunshine Coast of British Columbia, Canada. When not traveling, Roy can

be found in his log home overlooking the beautiful Pacific Ocean, writing

his next novel.

A Tibetan monk embarks on a journey of a lifetime, filled with harrowing

dangers and strange mysteries. Under attack from Chinese Communists, a

monk traveling the wilds of Tibet is given a daunting task — to find a lost book

and bring an ancient way of life back from the brink. That’s the spellbinding

journey revealed in Roy Dimond’s new, action-packed adventure tale.

Given an ancient artifact from his monastery, the sacred Singing Bowl, the

young monk heads out on a spiritual odyssey. As the universe provides clues to

his final destination at every turn, he soon discovers that nothing is coincidence.

In his quest to reunite a broken circle to keep his centuries-old civilization

alive, through both tragedy and triumph, he realizes the greatest truth of all:

the interconnectedness of all things and people, both seen and unseen.

 Join the intrepid monk as he:

• Finds the love of his life in exotic Katmandu

• Links up in Egypt with the Old Woman of Alexandria

• Meets the strange Mexican Carlos at the wondrous Machu Picchu.

• Encounters a wise student of Mahatma Gandhi called the “Librarian”

• Learns the precious secrets of the Navajo Indians

• Meets Albert Einstein’s boyhood friend

Discover these and many more incredible adventures in The Singing Bowl ,

a riveting new book in which the traveling monk — and all of us — learn that

the true meaning of any quest is wrapped within the experience itself.

Reviews:

“This epic story is an ultimate must-read in your life

backpack! After reading The Singing Bowl , I marveled at

the myriad of characters that take you over the precipice of

life’s ultimate questions. This journey through consciousness

and intention is timeless. This story harnesses the intentions

of the world and ourselves, that magically takes you . . .

home. The Singing Bowl  will always have a special place in

mine. Absolutely brilliant indeed!”

— J. Leitch, Seattle, Wash.

“When I picked up this book, I didn’t know what to

expect, but it captured my interest from the first pages.

The Singing Bowl   brought me on a journey across the

world, and introduced me to cultures, ideas and characters

that I wanted to know more about. I was interested in the

main character’s journey, and wanted to keep reading just

to find out what he would experience. The writer is very

clever and knowledgeable, and has written a beautiful and

compelling story.”

— G. Sinnett, Atlanta, Ga.
