Thousands of books have been written about Hitler, but he still remains a mystery. How could it happen that a man who was unknown to anyone, a lonely front-line soldier with no future, a few years later turned out to be the Leader and Messiah of the German people? How could such a nonentity unleash the most destructive and murderous war in human history? George van Frekem concluded that in Hitler's case there must have been a cause commensurate with the consequences of his actions - he was possessed by a "god", some being who inspired and guided him, brought him to power and ultimately abandoned him when he became not needed. And in this regard, the author reveals the completely unexpected role of the Indian philosopher and yogi Sri Aurobindo in the fight against Hitler on the eve and during the Second World War.
