Art Yoga

The author of this astonishing audiobook first became involved in the practice of devotional yoga at fifteen in 1970. Since that time Sripad Jagannatha Das has traveled the world in pursuit of his goal of self-realization through the Vedic tradition. Spending many years in India under the tutelage of many advanced devotees, Das has now reached the venerable age of sixty-nine and his quest to teach is stronger than ever. In this touching-spirited memoir, the yogi recalls his walk on the yogic path and how the deep divinity of bhakti yoga has colored his life.

We are living in a time of constant technological advancement. While improving our lives in many ways, technological progress also makes us accessible and so easily distractible and interruptible throughout the day.

Noted internationally known self-help advocate and teacher of devotional yoga Prana Govinda Das was born in Liverpool, England, in 1968, admittedly a pretty good year for all things bright and beautiful. He says, "From as early as I can remember I had an unquenchable thirst for knowledge, and a desire to understand the true nature of man and this world we live in. I was also always seeking out people who could answer all the questions I had about life, the universe, and everything."

In 1968, the Beatles trekked to a remote, mysterious, and beautiful part of India known as Rishikesh, or the valley of the saints. For literally thousands of years, this remote riverside valley has been a magnet for advanced yogis, mystics, and seekers of truth. In 1968, it was the absolute zenith of all of this and the pop world as well. It was here the Beatles wrote dozens of now iconic songs while meditating at the feet of the lauded spiritual master.
