The Three Lives of a Czech Yogi ... and Beyond by Karel Werner
My reluctance to write a book about my life was cunningly overcome by my wife, who started interviewing me onto a camcorder. She enjoyed hearing about my idyllic childhood in Jemnice, south Moravia, but ended up transcribing 46 hours covering the years up to 1968, when I emigrated.
The practising of meditation enabled Karel Werner to live calmly through the German occupation and communist oppression in Czechoslovakia. His Hatha Yoga book, the first in Czech, sold 95,000 copies before the government banned further editions. After emigrating in 1968 he lectured in 'Indian Philosophy and Religion' at Durham University.
