Sri M.
The author Sri â€˜Mâ€™ is an extraordinary individual. His uniqueness lies not only in the fact that at the young age of 19 and a half, he travelled to snow clad Himalayas from Kerala, and there he met and lived for several years with a â€˜real-timeâ€™ yogi, Babaji, but also that he should undertake such an unusual and adventurous exploration, given his non-Hindu birth and antecedents.,The metamorphosis of Mumtaz Ali Khan into Sri â€˜Mâ€™, a yogi with profound knowledge of the Upanishads and deep personal insights, born of first hand experiences with higher levels of consciousness is indeed a fascinating story.,The bonus for those interested in the secrets of yoga, meditation and sankhyan metaphysics is that Sri â€˜Mâ€™ is still living and easily reachable. He leads a normal life, married with two children, wears no special robes and conducts himself without pomp or paraphernalia.,Someone who met him recently said, â€œI expected a flashy godman and instead I saw a jean clad gentleman with a smile of his face, ready to discuss my problems. In five minutes flat, I said to myself, this is no ordinary man. The peace and tranquility that enters your system is tangibleâ€.
