Sinopsis

Gumbril, Theodore Gumbril Junior, B.A.Oxon., sat in his oaken stall on the north side of the School Chapel and wondered, as he listened through the uneasy silence of half a thousand schoolboys to the First Lesson, pondered, as he looked up at the vast window opposite, all blue and jaundiced and bloody with nineteenth-century glass, speculated in his rapid and rambling way about the existence and the nature of God.
Standing in front of the spread brass eagle and fortified in his convictions by the sixth chapter of Deuteronomy (for this first Sunday of term was the Fifth after Easter), the Reverend Pelvey could speak of these things with an enviable certainty. ‘Hear, O Israel,’ he was booming out over the top of the portentous Book: ‘the Lord our God is one Lord.’

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    I was born in 1947 to a mother from Barnsley and a father from Essex. I have three great loves in my life: Barnsley FC, Yorkshire County Cricket Club and my wonderful wife. My wife is my rock; Yorkshire CCC are my summertime passion; the Super Reds break my heart year after year - but I wouldn't swap them for any other team in the world. I have tried to look at the world of business through the gaze of a mixture of reality, humour and, on occasions, sheer disbelief. Every word and every event documented is the absolute truth. If you enjoy reading this book half as much as I enjoyed writing it, then I will have achieved more than I could ever have hoped for.

    Emmanuel Carrère is a renowned writer. After decades of emotional upheaval, he has begun to live successfully―he is healthy; he works; he loves. He practices meditation, striving to observe the world without evaluating it. In this state of heightened awareness, he sets out for a ten-day silent retreat in the French heartland, leaving his phone, his books, and his daily life behind. But he’s also gathering material for his next book, which he thinks will be a pleasant, useful introduction to yoga.
    
    Four days later, there’s a tap on the window: something has happened. Forced to leave the retreat early, he returns to a Paris in crisis. Life is derailed. His city is in turmoil. His work-in-progress falters. His marriage begins to unravel, as does his entanglement with another woman. He wavers between opposites―between self-destruction and self-control, sanity and madness, elation and despair. The story he has told about himself falls away. And still, he continues to live.
    
    This is a book about one man’s desire to get better, and to be better. It is laced with doubt, animated by the dangerous interplay between what is fiction and what is real. Loving, humorous, harrowing and profound, Yoga hurls us towards the outer edges of consciousness, where, finally, we can see things as they really are.

    Terry Randall, a former actor and TV writer, recounts his extraordinary journey through a humorous lens, sharing his repressed memories of paranormal encounters. From childhood ghost stories and alien abductions to the development of telepathic abilities, Randall's narrative challenges conventional reality, offering an amusing yet thought-provoking exploration of a larger, unseen world. His experiences raise profound questions about human potential, spiritual growth, and our place in the universe. 
      
    Primarily set in North-West England, the accounts focus on Randall's childhood and young adulthood. The time period spans from the late 1950s to the early 2000s, providing a backdrop of societal changes and evolving perspectives on paranormal phenomena. The atmosphere moves between the mundane reality of everyday life and inexplicable occurrences, creating a stark contrast that mirrors the dissonance between Randall's experiences and a consensus worldview. 
      
    His journey also explores the psychological impact of trauma around the retrieval of repressed memories. A reflection on the process of spiritual awakening, where paranormal experiences lead to a deeper understanding of the self. It challenges readers to smile whilst considering a broader perspective that invites introspection and self-discovery.
