I had actually read this wonderful book a few months after I had finished reading Living with the Himalayan Masters by SWAMI RAMA. I had always wanted to know more about the Master, because in his work he had tried his best to avoid himself. The book at times appeared sketchy because the Swami was not prepared to dwell upon a particular topic or incident at length. Time was never static for him. It ever flowed. But Justin has done wonders. He is not only devoted to the Swami to the core, more than that he is ever a learner. With eyes wide open to the world. His descriptions, as you will find in the pages of this great book in flawless english, with an aroma of the Himalayas, blessed by the Swami and his Masters, will simply enthrall you. The spirituality is explained in the simplest words, coupled with the loss and trauma brought in to the practitioner when practicing spirituality .
This had happened to the great Swami. Justin, his wife and a few others who were bent upon to discover the other side of this mundane existence. There is always more to life.Always. And one is not supposed to break free instantly to find a path to the spirituality and divinity.The paths differ, but Justin has been an example in treading a rare path. The book is full of insights, intelligent, preaching of the Master, again pure fun, practical lessons and some extremely rare incidents in the life of Swami Rama. The book is a saga of Swami’s determination.
A determination to fight against his own ill health and the whole world to bring in good things for the man. For the Gen Nxt Swami and the book of Justin may sound like pure fiction, but not long back, this was the reality.
