Thirteen Months In The Himalayas

Chronicles of a Monk's Sadhana

‘If you won’t get Her vision, who will?’ 

With these words from Bhairavi Ma echoing in his heart, a young monk who had renounced a multimillion-dollar business empire retreated into the Himalayas. For thirteen months, he engaged in intense meditation, seeking the finest reward there is: self-realization.

But what truly unfolded in those serene yet desolate mountains? Faced with biting cold, prowling wild animals, crippling hunger, and overwhelming isolation, Om Swami tested the limits of his mind and body. Struggling to sit in sadhana for hours, he oscillated between moments of transcendent joy and crushing despair. What spiritual practices did he adopt? How did he keep the ‘spark’ of sadhana alive? Were the rituals enough to reach the Divine, or did doubt and fear creep in, even for one so wise?

Thirteen Months in the Himalayas offers a rare and mesmerizing glimpse into Om Swami’s extraordinary journey of self-realization. A sequel to the bestselling If Truth Be Told, it takes you deeper into the heart of a monk’s spiritual practice and his unwavering quest for the Divine.
