Bøker av Jaimal Yogis

Fed up with teenage life in the suburbs, Jaimal Yogis ran off to Hawaii with little more than a copy of Hermann Hesse''s Siddhartha and enough cash for a surfboard. His journey is a coming-of-age saga that takes him from communes to monasteries, from the warm Pacific to the icy New York shore. Equal parts spiritual memoir and surfer''s tale, this is a chronicle of finding meditative focus in the barrel of a wave and eternal truth in the great salty blue.

It seems like he''s back to square one. But after an epic wipeout, he has a realization: deep down, under the anger, is love. He loves the ocean, and he wants to help keep it clean. But how? Let''s just say it involves some party waves and a benefit concert by the Coconut Heads--and it''s not just their parents who show up.
