Triptik: A Journey in the Land of the Gurus and Yonder (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781728393698)

In the frenzied 1970s, a young Brazilian from Rio de Janeiro in search of self-knowledge embarks on a cargo ship heading East. His goal: to graduate from The Yoga Institute, the world's oldest organized training center of this millenarian science. Reconstituted from a travel diary, a photo album, "and impressions engraved in mind and heart," his story also covers the picturesque, at times almost fateful events that marked the author's overland passage from India to Europe and the period spent there. "During all these years, I've tired of hearing from people close to me, and even from strangers with whom I've shared my adventures, that I should write it all down in a book. Until one wag (I don't really remember who), suggested that I had adventures enough in stock for three books. I sort of satisfied his suggestion and produced a book in three parts, a triptych: 'Aboard a star', 'In the home of Patanjali' and 'Overland'." TRIPTIK is an inspiring journey by Luiz Fernando Brandão, who with a light touch and good humor shares his search for spiritual experience through a narrative that is valuable for those interested in Yoga, professionals from the corporate world -in which he was immersed for over three decades- and all who wish to enjoy the best of themselves and of life. This revised edition features a special foreword by Professor Orlando Cani, who introduced the method of bio gymnastic which brings his name and is also an instructor certified by The Yoga Institute.
