Yogis of India: Timeless Stories of Their Lives and Wisdom - Tapa blanda

Yogis of India consists of a set of biographies of great Indian spiritual masters. The author explores various facets of the lives of the saints, covering lives of key disciples and touching the leela, or the play of the realised master that nurtures the devotee and develops the disciple. Each chapter begins with a unique episode in the life of the saint, and goes on to trace the life of the saint from birth to Mahasamadhi.

Sivarupa, a senior MNC executive, hails from a deeply spiritual and literary family that has produced reputed authors and yogis. A chance encounter with a householder yogi introduced him to various esoteric sciences relating to yoga and tantra. He received spiritual initiation and the name Sivarupa from his guru, Paramhansa Niranjanananda Saraswati, the Paramacharya of the Satyananda Yoga tradition. His fascination with the biographies of saints grew deeper over the years to finally become an all consuming passion.
