Lazyyogi’s FAQ
Personal information: 23 years old, male, single, recently graduated from college.
Are you Buddhist or Hindu? What is your religion/spirituality? I try to see the world on its own terms. I enjoy any spiritual system that does this too. I meditate and practice whatever inspires me.
How did you meet your guru? Here is the story. :)
What is your take on mantra meditation? Where do you buy your prayer beads? Information on mantra meditation can be found here. I purchase my prayer beads from Japa Mala Beads.
How do I meditate? Please see my blog page on meditation. Try it! Then feel free to ask me any questions after.
Why do you call yourself a yogi? I like the term because yogi is vague and could be applied in many ways. It has connotations of union and walking the path. However, I don’t claim any official title and if my using yogi bothers you, just ignore it. It doesn’t have much meaning beyond being a word.
What books do you recommend? You will see me endlessly recommend the following:
The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle
Tantra: The Supreme Understanding by Osho
I Am That by Nisargadatta Maharaj
The Bhagavad Gita
The Avadhuta Gita
The Tao Te Ching
