"Some Swamis are Fat" is an informal approach to truth-seeking. Ava Greene, a yoga instructor, bares her soul in a quest that's both light-hearted and agonizing. Greene's off-beat, late-night rants - that include cosmic questions, lucid realizations, and quirky side-tracking - lead us easily along, wanting more of her courage and insight. You'll lose and find yourself in the fresh, energetic writing. She only hints at a wealth of life experience, but applies a hard-fought wisdom that keeps bringing us back to the present moment, that elusive experience that matters most.
