This audiobook is digitally created from a human voice, but is not an actual human narrating this book. Considering the high costs associated with hiring human narrators, Sadguru Publishing is presented with the choice of having to decide whether to offer an audiobook with a digital narrator, or not having the book available in audiobook format at all. We have gone through the narration and listened to the book and feel that the quality of narration is definitely good enough to provide to those who are interested in having the audiobook knowing that it is digitally narrated. The voice sounds very natural and except for a few words it sounds like it is being spoken by a human narrator. Another benefit, aside from the high cost, of using a digital narrator is that it allows for the ability to quickly and easily make corrections if any are found. It has been listened two twice and should be error free at this point, but if there are any mistakes, they can be quickly corrected. After listening to several digital voices narrating the book in English we decided to use a voice of a middle-aged man from India. The Indian accent was able to pronounce many of the Indian words correctly that the voices with the more European, Australian, or American accents were not able to pronounce.
We know that some of the natural subtleties of the human voice cannot be replicated, but we hope that you enjoy and gain spiritual benefit from listening to this audiobook.

Apie autorių
Shri Siddharameshwar Maharaj was the disciple of Shri Bhauseheb Maharaj who mainly taught the path of Meditation as a means to realization. During his spiritual practice, Siddharameshwar Maharaj spent much of his time practicing meditation and reflecting on the teachings of great Saints such as Shri Samartha Ramdas, a renowned Maharashtran Saint of the 17th century (author of Dasbodh and Manache Shlok), as well as the teachings of Adi Shankaracharya, Valmiki and Vasisthta, and other great Saints such as Kabir, Tukaram, Eknath, (author of Eknathi Bhagwat), and others. After the passing away of his master Shri Bhausaheb Maharaj in the year 1914, Siddharameshwar Maharaj continued meditating on the teachings of his Master. In 1918, he renounced the world and joined four of his brother disciples to popularize his Master's teachings. In the year 1920 when he was on the tour of popularizing his Master's teachings, he got the idea that one could go beyond the path of many years of long meditation as a means for realization and that meditation is an initial stage to attain Final Reality. His brother disciples disagreed with Shri Siddharameshwar Maharaj, saying that their master, Shri Bhausaheb Maharaj has not told them this. He agreed with them, but stated, "Okay! Can one not go beyond that?" He left his co-disciples and returned to his home in Bijapur. While in Bijapur he meditated for nine months continuously without a break. Since his Master had taught him only meditation, he had no other means to find out the way to attain the Final Reality without long arduous meditation. He said, "I will attain the Final Reality even at the cost of my life." By the grace of his Master Shri Bhausaheb Maharaj he attained the realization of Final Reality. From that time on he taught "The Bird's Way" instead of the path of meditation. Now we are blessed with Shri Siddharameshwar Maharaj's precious teaching on the Bird's Way.
!! Jai Sadguru Parabrahman !!
