Re: What are you reading?

To be serious (for a moment)....I'm taking another stroll down memory lane reading Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramahansa Yogananda again.

I really love this book, not just for the obvious Tales From Topographic Oceans link but because it's a beautiful and inspiring read. I always feel better when I've read this.

Thanks Spaz.....you've got me back into the idea of picking up a book again. In fact I've taken a number of books off the shelves and piled them up to tackle in a few days. So far I've chosen:
Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance by Robert M. Pirsig
Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse
Jonathan Livingston Seagull by Richard Bach

I think I might have a headache soon. Too much to think about.

The sign of a true YES and TFTO fan. I have that book somewhere on the shelf too. I purchased and read it after reading Jon's comments in the TFTO vinyl gatefold. It was a paperback edition. I wonder if, after 30+ years, its pages haven't disintegrated.
