About the Book

In Love, At Ease: Everyday Spirituality with Pramukh Swami(Penguin India) by Yogi Trivedi.A unique life story of a global cultural ambassador and a spiritual master Pramukh Swami, the guru and Pramukh, or President, of the Bochasanwasi Akshar Purushottam Swaminarayan Sanstha, a major branch of the Swaminarayan Sampradaya that runs the Akshardham temples across the world. A story that captures the journey of birth, growth, career issues, illnesses, familial difficulties, and even embracing death and the next chapter of devotion and service. The journey depicts a journey from the first steps of life to the last few.

Pramukh Swami is the spiritual master behind the grand festival in Gujarat last month, a thousand Hindu mandirs, hundreds of global humanitarian initiatives, and a social reformer. In Love, At Ease is a personal heartfelt collection by Prof. Yogi Trivedi, a scholar of media and religion at Columbia University, a Fulbright Scholar, and a performer of bhakti poetry and song that will take the reader on a journey from the foothills of the Himalayas to Syrian Refugee camps with anecdotes, history lessons, and verses of bhakti love poetry that are relatable to teens and youth looking for answers on human interaction, spiritual progress, and overall development. The proceeds from this book about this noble spiritual master will be used for tribal healthcare and education in Poshina, Gujarat—a community very close to Pramukh Swami’s heart.
