Vyayama Yoga: The Art of Dynamic Breathing

Swami Shankarananda grew up in Brooklyn, New York, and as a graduate of both Columbia and New York Universities, began a promising career in English Literature at Indiana University. However, in the late sixties, a dramatic turn of events profoundly altered the direction of his life. In 1970, he travelled to India in search of a great teacher and a spiritual path. His search culminated in the meeting of the powerful and charismatic Baba Muktananda, under whom he studied for 12 years until Muktananda's death. Swamiji is author of the Australian best-seller, Happy for No Good Reason, also published in India by Motilal Banarsidass. Other titles by Swamiji include a five-CD lectures series, The oga of Furdjieff, and the audio and video series, Great Beings, including Volume I: The Wisdom of Anandmayi Ma.
