There is no book which can be as Indian as "Living with the Himalayan Masters"  by Swami Rama. I had never heard about Swami Rama and discovered this book quite serendipitously. The journey of Swami Rama right from his birth and the hard lessons he learnt from some of the greatest sages is narrated in this book, Some of which are quite un-believable. It takes a little faith in him, do go through this book as a actual narrative, but if you are in to metaphysical fiction this is a great read.

Groan... It's been awhile since I've read quite such a boring book. I'm eternally grateful that I got it for free on my Nook because I would be very annoyed if I had actually paid for it.

This book is basically the story of Swami Rama's life as he grows up living and studying with spiritual gurus in the Himalayas. It started off pretty interesting. I liked learning about life in the Himalayas and some of the stories were fascinating. Then it just got redundant, boring, and preachy. It seemed like I kept reading the same affirmations over and over and OVER again. Alright... I GET IT! Ugh. I suppose I probably should have been leery in the first place, but it had so much potential to be interesting and just... wasn't. Lesson learned.
