Gordon Long, a long-time devotee from Toronto, lovingly chronicles his knowledge and experiences of Yogacharya Oliver Black. Yogacharya Oliver, a Detroit businessman and millionaire turned yoga teacher, was a direct disciple of Paramahansa Yogananda, author of the spiritual classic Autobiography of a Yogi. Along with his own personal views about and interactions with Black, the author records those of a number of others who knew and were taught by Yogacharya Oliver: Evelyn Betty Howard, Steve Sandner, Ian Wylie, Irmgard Kurtz, and Peggy Braden. He relates Yogacharya's inspiring experiences with architect Frank Lloyd Wright, the yogis Rishi Grehwhal and Hamid Bey, and numerous poignant interactions with guru Yogananda. For the first time in print, the reader can absorb Yogacharya's wisdom and insights about such timely topics as Song of the Morning Ranch, the retreat he founded in 1970 in northern Michigan; devotion; karmic law; the astral world; and Kriya yoga practice. In addition, Long records Yogacharya Oliver's informal responses to questions about his inventions and his life as a businessman.This book gives the reader deep insight into the expanded consciousness that Yogacharya Oliver personified and shared with those who knew him.
