Colour printed - 130 illustrations Tales of meetings with Dandi Swami Narayananand Saraswati, the Guru's Will, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi & the Shankaracharyas of Jyotir Math. 'Dandi Swami' is a book celebrating the life of Dandi Swami Narayananand Saraswati and explores the lives of others from his lineage of thinkers. Dandi Swami Narayananand Saraswati was a contempory of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, the man who popularised Transcendental Meditation. Both used to listen to the teachings of the same guru, Shankaracharya Swami Brahmanand Saraswati. When the guru died he left a Will empowering one of his disciples to take his place as Shankaracharya of Jyotir Math, in the Himalayas. Not everyone was happy with the Will, and there have been disputes over succession ever since. It appears that Dandi Swami was offered the post of Shankaracharya but declined, preferring a life of seclusion. 'Dandi Swami' presents many quotations from Dandi Swami's teacher, Swami Shantanand, providing food for thought, and spiritual solace. 'Dandi Swami' includes selected quotations from Swami Brahmanand, a guru who had the ear of the first President of India. 'Dandi Swami' explores spiritual questions through the eyes of those that meet with Dandi Swami. Accounts of visitors such as Rob H van Dijk and Paul Mason offer glimpses into the life and beliefs of this humble hermit. An interview with David Sieveking offers futher insights into the retiring personality of Dandi Swami.

Fue en Madrid, en una tarde de primavera, cuando sienten placer los sentidos y por un rato se puede respirar hondo. Fue en el bulevar de la calle Ibiza, junto a la casa donde naci Pl cido Domingo. Cuatro amigos comiendo un men castellano en un cl sico restaurante del barrio. Uno de ellos soy yo. Un hombre desasosegado y perdido, que empieza a comprender que se ha asomado al abismo de la locura, atado con una spera soga a todos los que quiere, porque llevaba una vida gobernada por el miedo. Roberto es triatleta porque es padre de tres hijos. Como no tiene suficiente, en su tiempo libre se dedica al triatl n. Pedro hace como que trabaja porque le pagan muy poco y se dedica al deporte, al bricolaje y a la lectura. Ra l es un le n de los juzgados y me ha sacado de m s de una. Es l quien nos cuenta que ha sido invitado a una boda en la cual los novios se tirar n en paraca das para acudir al banquete. Me cuesta prestarle atenci n porque me da la impresi n de que un hombre, sentado detr s de Ra l y d ndonos la espalda, nos est escuchando. Gira levemente la cabeza para oir mejor lo que decimos. Traje oscuro, barba ligera y un perfil com n. Nos explica Ra l que a esta boda adem s hay que ir disfrazado. Una de las opciones es disfrazarse de Dandi del Congo. Jam s hab amos escuchado semejante expresi n y le pedimos explicaciones. En ese momento, cuando todos mis amigos miran el tel fono m vil buscando fotos de coloridos sapeurs, el hombre de traje oscuro se levanta de su mesa, se acerca ladeado hacia m y me susurra de paso: "No te librar s tan f cilmente de m ". Empuja la puerta de la sala y desaparece en un suspiro. Todo el mundo sigue a lo suyo, actuando como si nada hubiera ocurrido.El Dandi del Congo es un hombre que decide vestir de forma elegante, cara, llamativa y original en medio de la m s absoluta miseria. Suele llevar bast n y un puro apagado. Viaja a Par s al menos una vez en la vida y muestra una conducta alegre, intachable y caballeresca. Combina vivos colores, corbatas de seda, pa uelos estampados, elegantes sombreros y la gente les llama para animar fiestas y reuniones. Las im genes que vemos en internet me impactan por novedosas, originales y transgresoras. Nuestra comida transcurre con alegr a masculina de amigos que se sacan el jugo al m ximo ya que se ven mucho menos de lo que les gustar a. Vuelvo a casa paseando por el bulevar mientras cae la tarde. Una brisa fresca arranca m sica de las hojas de los rboles. Contin o pensando en los Dandis del Congo. Deciden dejar de ser quienes eran, conquistando una nueva identidad. Deciden obviar la dura realidad de su vida y su entorno y ser otros. Y ese ser otros termina por transformar dicha realidad. Cuando abro el portal de mi casa, el hombre de traje oscuro cae sobre m con brusquedad. Me mira espantado mientras un elegante zapato se despega de su culo grasiento. Se zafa y huye despavorido calle abajo. Frente a m , un hombre negro con traje rojo a rayas y bomb n a juego, corbata y pa uelo rosas de seda y bast n con empu adura de marfil, se enciende un puro y me sonr e. "S que lleva mucho tiempo rond ndote y decid venir a echarte una mano. Ve a un buen sastre, hazte un traje nuevo y s el otro que ya fuiste hace un tiempo. Y transforma tu mundo". Me dio un toque cari oso con la punta de su bast n en el hombro y sali . Le vi marchar con paso elegante y pausado, fumando su puro, calle arriba.Me qued s lo en la penumbra de mi portal, observando el brillo del polvo en el aire, tocado por los rayos del atardecer, sin saber qu decir, hipnotizado, con la mente en blanco. A la ma ana siguiente dej mi trabajo y volv a dedicar mi vida a la lectura y a hacer el rid culo escribiendo. Tambi n dej de escuchar a los que me hablan de pol tica de dinero y ya no tengo miedo al futuro. Veo la vida color de rosa, literal, e intento dar y conseguir alegr a y cari o.

Dandi, 1930 All the world's eyes are on this tiny village by the Arabian Sea, where Mahatma Gandhi will soon break the Salt Law to defy British rule.

Instead, he finds himself wading through mud, battling angry goats and eating burnt food as the youngest of the student volunteers helping prepare Dandi for Bapu's arrival. When a man is found dead and rumors of an angry demon grip the village, Dinu finds himself drawn into the mystery, even as he grapples with dilemmas of his own. But as Dinu and his friends race against time to find the killer, the demon strikes again . . .
