Reader comments
The author is the yogi mentioned in the title of the book. This book tells the author's experience of practicing Kriya Yoga and his understanding of yoga thoughts. The book is not as bland as I imagined. The text is humorous and not boring at all. It tells interesting stories that happened to the author. Some of the details of life look very real. It writes about the life experience of an enlightened saint who is rare in the history of literature, as well as his inner emotional world, and his thoughts and perceptions about life and the world. Worth recommending.
At first I thought I was reading an autobiography about a yoga guru practicing yoga. Later, I discovered that the book described many miraculous phenomena, that is, visions after the emergence of human spirituality. At this point, I thought it was just cultural differences that caused Indians to be obsessed with these visions. After all, "My God" starring Aamir Khan was criticizing that kind of atmosphere. Later I discovered that there were many explorations beyond science in this book, and they were all very logical. I had to read them carefully while worshiping them.
Hail to the gurus!
