Abstract: "Fed up with his suburban life, Jaimal Yogis ran off to Hawaii with little more than a copy of Herman Hesse's Siddhartha and enough cash for a surfboard. His journey is a coming-of-age saga that takes him from communes to monasteries, from the warm Pacific to the icy New York shore. Saltwater Buddha is a rousing chronicle of finding meditative focus in the barrel of a wave and eternal truth in the great salty blue."--Back cover.
