I loved it. Read it. Benjamin Lorr can write and he can write about yoga and yogi's. His insights into the process of power and teachers and people surrendering power to teachers is the best description ever since Stephen Cope's YOGA AND THE QUEST FOR THE TRUE SELF.
He also nails the thrill of yoga obsession and all the pitfalls. The world he writes about is the Bikram world but everyone who does yoga can relate.
The descriptions of the teacher training will leave you questioning every time you've let yourself be humiliated and even marginally abused. Hazing is illegal for a reason.
He asks the question does yoga heal? Through all the misguidance and crap the answer is still yes.
Namaste,
Dean
