It draws on previously published booklets on Shivabalayogi (see History of Books on Shivabalayogi) and General Hanut's own knowledge and conversations with Swamiji.

The Boy Yogi Laghu Guru Upanishad 

Those interested in the more esoteric aspects of meditation inspired by Shivabalayogi may find much of interest in Laghu Guru Upanishad.  A disciple of Shivabalayogi and a veteran of the Indian army, Gurprasad (a pen name) has written extensively about his experiences in meditation and published it in book form under the title Laghu Guru Upanishad.

The book is available through Amazon.com.
