A Reading list for youngsters first spiritual visit to India

1 Way of the white clouds................ Lama Govinda

2 A search in secret India.............. Paul Brunton [first published in 1934, but a worthwhile read]

3 The spiritual tourist ................ Mick Brown a journalists view

4 Third-class ticket ............ Heather Wood a delightful view of village life and trains


Mods I tried to post it in the beginners forum, but was denied access. I think it would be better there than here in books

I'd add Siddhartha by Herman Hesse. Then again, I'd add anything by Herman Hesse

Thanks!!
Was always looking for some information on books like that! Would check them out at Famous Book Store, Janpath.

These are books about travels and spiritual experience in India right? Something like a biography during ones stay in India?

@ SA, really well no you might not find any of these books in Delhi, but please take the titles to the book store. Or check on line

There was one book store off CP who took my list, phoned out and , voila within 15 mins books delivered.

Books which might give an insight which I found illuminating
