Book excerpt: What do you do when you are a twenty-five-year-old Yale graduate making half-a-million dollars a year as a hotshot investment banker on Wall Street? You bust your ass and become a millionaire by thirty, of course.Not if you are Samrat Ratan, born in the USA to immigrant Indian parents; you quit and enrol in business school in India instead.Samrat's rollercoaster journey begins at the Indian Institute of Management (IIM) in Bangalore, where he spends his time getting high on marijuana while his grades - and self-confidence - plummet. Soon, Samrat's quest for identity turns increasingly bizarre as it takes him places he hadn't planned on visiting - prison, for example - and makes him do things he hadn't banked on doing: 'meditating' stoned with a sexy Danish hippie in the Himalayas, hanging out with a cannibal on the banks of the Ganga, and peddling soap to the formidable Raja Bhaiya in Benares. Does Samrat - Yale valedictorian, investment banker, convict, pothead - survive his fall from grace?

Download or read book The Yoga of Max's Discontent written by Karan Bajaj. This book was released on 2016-05-03. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A beautifully rendered epic journey . . . . The novel works on many levels and excels at them all.” —New York Journal of Books In this captivating and surprising novel of spiritual discovery—a No. 1 bestseller in India—a young American travels to India and finds himself tested physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Max Pzoras is the poster child for the American Dream. The child of Greek immigrants who grew up in a dangerous New York housing project, he triumphed over his upbringing and became a successful Wall Street analyst. Yet on the frigid December night he’s involved in a violent street scuffle, Max begins to confront questions about suffering and mortality that have dogged him since his mother’s death. His search takes him to the farthest reaches of India, where he encounters a mysterious night market, almost freezes to death on a hike up the Himalayas, and finds himself in an ashram in a drought-stricken village in South India. As Max seeks answers to questions that have bedeviled him—can yogis walk on water and live for 200 years without aging? Can a flesh-and-blood man ever achieve nirvana?—he struggles to overcome his skepticism and the pull of family tugging him home. In an ultimate bid for answers, he embarks on a dangerous solitary meditation in a freezing Himalayan cave, where his physical and spiritual endurance is put to its most extreme test. By turns a gripping adventure story and a journey of tremendous inner transformation, The Yoga of Max's Discontent is a contemporary take on man's classic quest for transcendence.

Book excerpt: They ride at dawn to ensure early morning commuters are late for work, pay in change at the grocery store to hold up the line, and attempt to cross busy intersections to scare the daylights out of people. Who are these horrible monsters? They are the vampires of Silverdale, a progressive town where Lycans, Vampires, Witches, and Ghouls have managed to live in harmony. Agnes is a member of the vampire cult, The Streetwalkers, which received its name when streets were invented. Due to the term “streetwalker” changing in meaning over time, Agnes advocates for a name change. When The Tall Order of Keep Off the Grass rejects her proposal, Agnes takes to the streets in protest, but her efforts are upended by the discovery of a murdered witch. Worried that the crime may fracture the peace that has been brokered between the factions, Agnes sets off with her trusty side-kick Edna, a werewolf, and a cat, to solve the mystery and protect their beloved LVWG community.
