review 1: In Jaimal Yogis I have found a kindred spirit - a thoughtful, philosophically/spiritually orientated, curious, young man who enjoys life and surfing. I'm in a place right now where I am trying to grow in my understanding of my relationship to God and the use of meditation in my spiritual quest and this book is largely about meditation! I found a lot in the pages of this book that have helped my practice and helped me articulate my own thoughts.
review 2: I put this on my short-list of books to read before TEDx Monterey next month. Jaimal Yogis clearly knows the art of writing; his prose is fluid and succinct. But - to be honest - his story comes off as a little bit shallow and formulaic. And I definitely didn't get the sense of zen or calm enlightenment that I ... moreexpected. I had planned to give this to my child to read before the talks, but I changed my mind. I think Jaimal's book romanticizing that lost-adolescent-coming-of-age stage a little too much. less
