Cartwheels in a Sari
Author: Jayanti Tamm
Publisher: Crown
ISBN: 030745164X
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
In this colorful, eye-opening memoir, Jayanti Tamm offers an unforgettable glimpse into the hidden world of growing up “cult” in mainstream America. Through Jayanti’s fascinating story–the first book to chronicle Sri Chinmoy–she unmasks a leader who convinces thousands of disciples to follow him, scores of nations to dedicate monuments to him, and throngs of celebrities (Sting, Pope John Paul II, Nelson Mandela) to extol him. When the short, bald man in flowing robes prophesizes Jayanti to be the “Chosen One,” her life is forever entwined with the charismatic guru Sri Chinmoy, who declares himself a living god. A god who performs sit-ups and push-ups in front of thousands as holy ritual, protects himself with a platoon of bodyguards, and bans books, TV, and sex. Jayanti’s unusual and increasingly bizarre childhood is spent shuttling between the ashram in Queens, New York, and her family’s outpost as “Connecticut missionaries.” On the path to enlightenment decreed by Guru, Jayanti scrubs animal cages in his illegal basement zoo, cheerleads as he weight lifts an elephant in her front yard, and trails him around the world as he pursues celebrities such as Princess Diana and Mother Teresa. But, when her need for enlightenment is derailed by her need for boys, Jayanti risks losing everything that she has ever known, including the person that she was ordained to be. With tenderness, insight, and humor, Jayanti explores the triumphs and trauma of an insider who longs to be an outsider, her hard-won decision to finally break free, and the unique challenges she confronts as she builds a new life.

Clutch

Publisher: SMW Books
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 287
Book Description
Hot and frenetic, baby, that’s you and me. USA TODAY bestselling author S.M. West pens an emotional and captivating grumpy/sunshine romance that will hook you from the first page. Tiny cut-off jean shorts, scuffed cowboy boots, tousled red hair, and the fire in her hazel gaze. I’m a goner the second I lay eyes on Pansy, and it has nothing to do with being nearly run over by her car. That’s fate, bringing us together. I don’t believe in that stuff but can’t deny it. She’s the sunshine to my broody growl. And more times than I want to admit, we’re at each other’s throats. Or more like, I rant and she calms me down. I can’t get her out of my head and desperately want her in my bed. But she has plans. None of which include a soon-to-be-retired rockstar. It doesn’t matter how long it takes. I’ll wait for her. She’s my home. Little do I know, the universe conspires to keep us apart. Clutch – verb: to grasp and hold tightly; to seize; snatch.
