Linda Noble commented on About the Film 2015-11-11 15:16:32 -0800Watched on Netflix. Loved it! I read Autobiography of a Yogi as a teenager—before there was a SRF any where near where I lived. That book, and Herman Hesse’s Siddhartha continue to have a profound influence on my life. The movie is a great introduction to material.
