Story
On the surface, this is a biography of an accomplished seeker who mastered the practices of yoga and brought a system for understanding the mysteries of body, mind, and spirit to students in the West. But, like the life of Swami Rama, this audiobook offers more than a sequence of astonishing events. As you read the stories of authentic guru-disciple relationships Swami Rama had both with his master and with his own students, you will see how the spiritual wisdom is transmitted through generations. This book also serves as a guide to advanced practices of yoga and tantra not commonly understood in modern times.

Story
He appears out of nowhere in a sleepy little neighbourhood in suburban Kerala. He calls himself Shunya, the zero. Who is he? A lunatic? A dark magician? A fraud? Or an avadhuta, an enlightened soul? Saami, as they call him, settles into a small cottage in the backyard of the local toddy shop. Here he spins parables, blesses, curses, drinks endless glasses of black tea and lives in total freedom. On rare occasions, he plays soul-stirring melodies on his old bamboo-reed flute. Then, just as mysteriously as he arrived, Shunya vanishes, setting the path for a new avadhuta, a new era.

The author Sri "M" is an extraordinary individual. His uniqueness lies not only in the fact that at the young age of 19 and a half, he travelled to snow-clad Himalayas from Kerala, and there he met and lived for several years with a "real-time" yogi, Babaji, but also that he should undertake such an unusual and adventurous exploration, given his non-Hindu birth and antecedents. The metamorphosis of Mumtaz Ali Khan into Sri "M", a yogi with profound knowledge of the Upanishads and deep personal insights, is born of first-hand experiences with higher levels of consciousness....

Publisher's Summary
Wisdom and Humour from a Monk’s Bowl
A man was sitting with his friends in a local inn. After a couple of drinks, he asked his friends, “Do you love me?”
“Of course, we do,” they replied.
“So do you know what I need?”
No one answered.
“If you don’t know what I need then how can you say you love me?”
To love and to be loved is the most basic human need. No wonder we are attracted to people who give us attention, care about us and love us. Yet, love also remains the greatest challenge in most relationships. Why?
A Fistful of Love is a collection of insightful, thought-provoking nuggets of wisdom appreciated by millions around the world. This book is full of humour and narratives most beautifully woven into learnings of life that will make you stop and think.
A must-listen.
Om Swami is a mystic living in the Himalayan foothills. He has a bachelor’s degree in business and an MBA from Sydney, Australia. Prior to renunciation, he founded and ran a multimillion-dollar software company successfully. He is the author of the best seller If Truth Be Told: A Monk’s Memoir and a soon to be released book on Kundalini.

one of the best books I heard here
Loving God is easy, he neither criticizes nor compliments, he does not hug you or stave you off, you have accepted him the way he is, he is the product of your belief.
Loving God is still a devine act for a human being, Loving all is a godly act of a devine being.
