Publisher's Summary

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, born of first-hand experiences with higher levels of consciousness is indeed a fascinating story. 

The bonus for those interested in the secrets of yoga, meditation, and sankhyan metaphysics is that Sri "M" is still living and easily reachable. He leads a normal life, married with two children, wears no special robes and conducts himself without pomp or paraphernalia. 

Someone who met him recently said, "I expected a flashy godman and instead I saw a jean clad gentleman with a smile on his face, ready to discuss my problems. In five minutes flat, I said to myself, this is no ordinary man. The peace and tranquility that enters your system is tangible."

Fascinating tale of self discovery

Out of words to describe what the author has lived through his years of self discovery. Cannot have enough of what ignited the author through phases of self discovery. If the reader is blessed with even 1% of the oozing devotion evident in each thought, its time worth invested. Hand folded grace to the gurus and to the author whose account is overwhelmingly inspiring to all who are open to the thought of finding existence of god within themselves.

Impressive

I loved a lot of Sri M's experience in spiritual growth.Lot of unimaginable experiences that he shared in this book. Though basically Iam a skeptic and also a believer on Upanishad teachings.... I understand that the possibilities of his experience and the hidden wonders of Himalayas which is difficult to comprehend for a common city inhabitants like me ... Sri Gurubyo Nama:

Non stop spiritual extravaganza

Besides a Beautiful narration by Gaurav, For a spiritual seeker, who has no guru in life, urge you NOT to save this in wish list, BUY it. You won’t regret. What a life Guru Sri M has been living ! For a serious listener, you may be called upon to visualise or at best experience Himalayas. I got my calling.
All I can say is I will listen to many if not all chapter again.

Narration was mechanical...

Emotionless narration! I would prefer the hard copy to read myself. What the punctuations are for, Mr. Narrator?!
