Thirteen Months in the Himalayas is the account of Om Swami, who left behind a highly successful worldly life to pursue something far more difficult: himself.
He spent thirteen months in the Himalayas, living in intense solitude and undertaking deep spiritual practices, facing the cold, silence, fear, exhaustion, and the restless mind. But this isn’t simply a monk’s travelogue. It is a glimpse into what happens when you strip life down to its bare essentials and are left alone with your own mind.
What makes Om Swami’s story especially intriguing is the contrast: a man who knew ambition, business and material success, yet deliberately chose renunciation and sadhana.
You don’t have to be spiritual to find something in this book.
For me the special take away from this book - The divine experiences of Om Swami when He came face to face with Divine Mother.
I am also reading other books by Om Swami. Is there any fan of Om Swami books?
