About the Book

When it comes to the world of Addiction, we find some people sabotaging their chance at a new life {recovery} just so they can again experience the drug and it's effect. Whether this action is carried out because of an outside influence, or it is purely an act originated by the person; will become part of the diagnosis once the process to recovery begins. At the moment of relapse, it then becomes a deadly game and if the using does not stop, they may go insane or even die from drug overdose. All people agree, the addict must recover, but there must be a genuine recovery process outlined in order to do that. In addition, we cannot become someone who has closed his or her eyes to the world and call ourselves recovered. The recovery world itself calls for an adjustment to be made in the person's overall life; their standards and principles must change if need be. Life is a gift, and we are placed within it to experience a demonstration. This demonstration will begin to show us secrets about ourselves and especially if he/she is of Black decent and have a connection with the slave holocaust here in America. Why? Because of who and what you are and where you came from, and what you carry with you into the process of recovery. The process of recovery {the spirituality} has many variances and can easily cause confusion if you do not become equipped with a guide. All of the research on recovery has been done including the History that surrounds Black people of America. In this outlined text; you will see, there is more to you and your recovery than what meets the eye; and your heritage connects to deep spiritual roots, which make it virtually impossible to live without consciousness on a higher level. Welcome to the world of: No Dope. A Book Of Enlightenment And Pathway To Love


About the Author

Mr. Colbert Lee Cobene has written many articles on the subject of recovery for many years, and has always found the time to stay current with his personal inventories as well.

 

His interest, dedication, and evolvement of the book No Dope came by way of a class he took at college; after experiencing a heated debate between student and teacher surrounding the point that there was no difference in the approach to recovery regardless of race or religion, and that culture has no bearing on a person’s awareness and search for GOD.

             The conversation left him somewhat exhausted and tired of the people who claimed to have all of the answers because of their educational status. A graduate himself but he did not agree with the idea that education alone qualified a person to teach others on the subject of recovery, and culture.

Years passed before a revelation occurred, pointing him in the right direction.

With many years of research, which began in 1994, the first draft of what turned out to be a masterpiece of work became what is now known as the book No Dope.

             The deep desire of the Author is for all people to become exposed to the truth when we deal with recovery, and to reach their own conclusions to the question that started this search for truth: should a person’s culture and their awareness of spirituality play a role in their search for GOD, recovery, and a better life. Are the teachers of the steps sensitive enough about diverse cultures and their struggles?
