Recently I read: The Journey Home




It is the autobiography of Radhanath Swami, he grows up in Chicago USA, follows the hippie trail across Europe and the Middle East into India. Its a journey that finds him living in the forests with ashen covered, trident carrying babas, living in a cave by the Ganges. It's a wild rollicking tour through the spiritual backwaters of India until he finds himself called out of a crowd by a Guru who becomes his spiritual master - A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami. I heard part two is about to be released soon. For me it was one of those 'I couldn't put it down' books.

I am an iPad reader, trying to kick the physical book habit, but it's hard.
