There are tens of thousands of books printed on leadership, but the science of leadership is known by a very rare few. Everyone is a leader in some sense of the term, because everyone exerts an influence that others will have to deal with. Beyond the speculation of those who think they know, and those who are experimenting to discover what makes leadership work, B.T swami encapsulates the leadership teachings from ancient vedic texts. Readers will gain a deeper appreciation of the importance and power of leadership as it applies to themselves and their endeavours.
Black Lotus: The Spiritual Journey of an Urban Mystic explores the life and mission of B.T. Swami, an African-American seeker who became one of the most influential spiritual leaders of the twentieth century. His inspiring story is enriched by personal interviews with family, friends, college professors, mentors, students, and other fellow travellers on the spiritual path. These interviews make their appearance in the book as inset quotes, allowing his associates to speak for themselves. As a result, Black Lotus offers an intimate look at the Swami’s life and times, which blossom on these pages for the first time in written form. As the beauty and sublime perfection of a lotus rises in supreme majesty above its stem, which is buried deeply in clouded waters, so Black Lotus is a tribute to one who rose above all boundaries and limitations, and inspired others to do the same.
