About this listen

Fed up with teenage life in the suburbs, Jaimal Yogis ran off to Hawaii with little more than a copy of Hermann Hesse's Siddhartha and enough cash for a surfboard. His journey is a coming-of-age saga that takes him from communes to monasteries, from the warm Pacific to the icy New York shore.

Equal parts spiritual memoir and surfer's tale, this is a chronicle of finding meditative focus in the barrel of a wave and eternal truth in the great, salty blue.

I know a bit about Buddhism and nothing about surfing but it doesn’t matter how much you know this is a charming memoir with a great story really well told. The narrator has just the right tone, a really good performance.

A charming, thoughtful, inspiring memoir.
