This book is a treasure of inspiring stories and spiritual wisdom, clearly explained in terms of very practical guidance for daily life issues. This book offers amazing examples of Namadeva Acharya's journey of awakening to spiritual potencies that most would call extraordinary. His explanations describe ways in which the events he witnessed can be understood, and experienced, to be accessible to us, and within the range of human potential... as taught by the advanced yogis, the mystics, the revered sages from various religions. What I found most meaningful in this book, when I first read it in 2005, was that Namadeva was providing an extensive first-hand witness account of many profoundly powerful Yogic powers and experiences, which were taking place close-to-home, in our current era, mostly in North America (plus India). Namadeva tells of events and experiences of the caliber of Yogananda's Autobiography of a Yogi, that are often happening in our modern times and close to home, not just in some ancient ashram, or only in some far-away land. The inspiring example here is of a man, born and raised in the culture of Twentieth Century USA, offering first-hand accounts of advanced yogic powers and spiritual experiences. And he presents them in such a way as to make them understandable and accessible to our vision of what is possible for each of us.</p>
