1.2. Dramatic rebirth

From my biography:
After one week without sleep, I was ready for a psychiatric clinic. Psychotic attacks robbed me increasingly of control over my feelings. Shortly before being admitted to the hospital, I had an experience that left a deep impact on me. Looking for peace and quiet in my personal prayer corner, my head was spinning ever faster between a symbolic snake and a symbolic cross. The speed increased until I fell to the ground, completely stiff. At this moment, I heard the “Big Bang” and immediately afterward the crying of a newborn baby. In hindsight, this was the moment of my spiritual rebirth.
