The Dance of Reality(2013)
'Having broken away from my illusory self, I was desperately seeking a path and a meaning to life.'

He was born in 1929 Tocopilla, a coastal town on edge of the Chilean desert, where he discovered the fundamentals of reality, as he underwent an unhappy and alienated childhood as part of an uprooted family.
