"The Teaching of Yildizhan" addresses the survival of the entire universe, while this book focuses on the survival of individuals. It concerns every person on Earth. When it comes to survival, can you truly put a price on such a book? Imagine paying 1,000,000 $ for a copy of this book at a bookstore. Even then, you wouldn’t be paying its full worth. Because survival is at stake, and it has no price. No matter how much you pay, in the end, this book is essentially a gift to you.
