REVIEW OF BOOK READING JUNE 6, 2020 by one of the participants:

I enjoyed the book reading quite a lot.

I had the realization while watching that this book you gave birth to and the life story it contains will probably do more to perpetuate your teaching than any other single lecture you could give or teacher that you have trained for this one, main reason: it inspires!

I remember when I was 18 discovering Autobiography of a Yogi for the first time and devouring it cover to cover. It was an inspiring light that guided me onward. There is great power in reading the story of a person who was born to the world like oneself is born, who grew up having certain parents and in this or that circumstance, like oneself, but who, at some point, experienced a transformation that was indisputably real, powerful and that guided their entire life afterwards in the search and fulfillment of a spiritual connection to life that transcends individual time, place and circumstance.

I feel your book is the most important legacy of everything you could leave to those who follow. Your story becomes mythic in some ways so that it touches deeply on many levels and resonates with anyone who is searching more connection to Spirit in their life. It shows how someone can be simultaneously ordinary and extraordinary. It illustrates quite literally that if one is willing to give all to their passion for Spirit without reservation they may be amply rewarded in their efforts to live in the ineffable mystery of connection to the All.

Each person’s path, in the end, is individual. Their trials and tribulations, their joy of Connection and, sometimes, their pain of its loss, the movement of their life towards fulfillment… each is as individual as a snowflake. But the one thing we all need on our journey is the knowledge that it is possible; that others have done it, that there is a reality waiting to be discovered that transcends what most people take for granted as ordinary life. The one thing people need is inspiration to help them carry on. I feel you have provided this most important ingredient in your book. Your story may be individual, with experiences unique to you, but the message of encouragement and inspiration is both mythic and universal.

Thank you!
