Born in 1910 and abandoned to a band of roaming exiled bohemian intellectuals, opium addicts, Victorian harlots and other sordid hanger-ons, YogaDawg began his yoga journey by hearing drunken, debouched debates on the great occult texts of the day. As a result of being immersed in these classics at an early age, along with the decadent literature and boogie-woogie of the time, YogaDawg became fascinated by the methods and practices of these occult people. These writers and musicians, with their out-of-body experiences, claimed to be able to transcend the physical body and draw closer to the absolute. In the mid-1920s, YogaDawg found a copy of the Kama Sutra that one of the flappers left behind one evening, which inspired YogaDawg to become a yogi. Then in the early 1930s, upon hearing about the great Jnana yogi Krishnamurti, YogaDawg set off for India to meet this most enlightened yogi. Unfortunately, at the time, not many Americans knew were India was, so YogaDawg ended up in Indiana as he was told that's where India was located.

Love your site - funny!!! - David Newman (Durga Das)

I had a good graze through your web site and, apart from feeling jealous that I hadn't written some of it, enjoyed it immensely. - Edward Clark
