Time to WAKE UP!

This story touches my heart, my funnybone, and feeds my soul. His accounts are both entertaining and spritually informative. By just reading this book, I feel like I have studied directly with Swami Rama, and am connected with his teachings. I would like to thank the author for sharing these experiences in such a heart-felt and honest way. I highly recommend this book for everyone, but in particular it would be beneficial for people who are dissatisfied with religion, but aren't necessarily drawn to new-age thought, people who want to deepen their spiritual practice, people who are ready to awaken to a new reality, or folks who are just looking for some answers or meaning in life. Be well.

An Amazingly Great Book

Reading about Dr. O'Brien's experiences with Swami Rama (one of the most influential yoga masters of the 20th century) is spiritually galvanizing. This is one of the best spiritual autobiographies ever! Very interesting, very inspiring, very highly recommended!

Some wonderful tales of the miracles of Swami Rama

Justin Obrien, having been directed by his master, Swami Rama, almost a quarter of a century ago to someday write a book about their times together, finally completes his task.If you know who Swami Rama is, you will surely enjoy this collection of "Swamiji" stories as told by his devout disciple, Justin OBrien. And if you don't know him, this book will introduce you to a guru extraordinair.Swami Rama came from India to America with a mission to bridge the gap between East and West, and in the process accomplished some incredible feats. In this book, you will read of the miracles of a Saint, and the growth of his disciple, Justin, as told in a delightfully entertaining fashion.Don't pass this one up.
