So you've read it?
Well the thing is that the guy self-proclaims his book as being 'spiritual' but when I read the first 4 pages at the store, it didn't sound anything like the description you've given.
He starts off by explaining his past frustration in life. After a few suicidal thoughts every now and again, he started thinking 'I just can't live with myself anymore'. Then, in a nutshell, he realised there's more to him i.e. two of him. The 'I' that couldn't live with 'myself'.
From that starting point, I think he goes on to explain how we can control ourselves and be able to experience some sort of higher consciousness where our bodies aren't so in control of our conscious mind. I think the best way to illustrate what that might look like is e.g. an addiction. The mind wants to stop but the body says otherwise.
Like I said, he self-proclaims this as being spiritual, but I see some interesting philosophy instead, namely, Buddhism and Taoism (judging by other pages I flicked to).
