Sri Sri Sri Shivabalayogi Maharaj: Life & Spiritual Ministration
Collected and written by General (ret.) Hanut Singh, Spiritual Ministration was originally published by the Bangalore Trust on the occasion of Shivabalayogi’s 46th birthday on January 24, 1981.
It draws on previously published booklets on Shivabalayogi (see History of Books on Shivabalayogi) and General Hanut's own knowledge and conversations with Swamiji.
Spiritual Ministration was republished in 1992 (Bangalore) and in 2008 (Dehradun). Unfortunately, this book is not generally available in the West. You can read the entire Sri Sri Sri Shivabalayogi Maharaj Life & Spiritual Ministration online, and download a printer-friendly PDF of Spiritual Ministrations.
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.
