I have read Yogananda through my mom, she got me into yoga from a young age, I love his storytelling as well as the story itself. Have you ever picked up queer vibes from him? Always thought he looked quite feminine. Another book that I think you might like is Tao Te Ching, by Lao-Tsu. It is comprised of 81 short poems and if remember well it is the founding text of Taoism, although it could be seen more as philosophical text than a religious one. It is at the same time very direct and very abstract
Interesting! I find Indian guru-oriented spirituality frequently quite queer. I think in this book there is a guru who has a favourite disciple and they sleep in the same bed.I find the narrator extremely sweet and lovable. I've never read the Tao te Ching, although I had a phase when I was more into texts like that. Maybe I'll try one day. Thanks for the recommendation!
I suspected that this video could be great, so I made sure to run a nice warm bath for myself. Soaking and sipping slowly my chamomile tea, I listened carefully to your gentle voice and took mental notes of your book recommendations. 💜
Fantastic choices and reccomendations! I can bookend your top 10 as I’ve read numbers, 10, 9, and 1… devoured all of Seth tbh. So brilliant. More books to add to my wish list now! Thank you, great video.

Thank you, I've added some of these titles to my library hold list.
Glad you went off-piste 🎉 Such a great review with many interesting recommendations. Thanks!!
@@BellNell-ro9de You’re welcome. It was fun to do:-)
Thank you. What an interesting list and so tantalisingly reviewed. I'll have to try to track down an unedited copy of Yogananda P.
@@annasmith6651 Yes, that is my tip. But maybe they have sorted it all out and gone back to the original text? Let’s hope!
I've read a lot of these kinds of books over the years, but my absolute favorite is Falling Into Grace by Adyashanti
@@danskhansen ooh - thanks!
Thank you
Thank you! This seems to be very useful. I may start where your list did. I'm curious, have you ever read or watched any Dolores Cannon?
@@toadstooltarot I have just discovered Dolores Cannon. Interesting stuff😶
