Summary

Paramahansa Yogananda's Autobiography of a Yogi was one of the most impactful spiritual books of the 20th century and has travelled around the world, inspiring millions to walk the spiritual path. But what are 21st-century spiritual aspirants, steeped in technology and science, to think of these classic tales of gurus, swamis, and miracles in the Himalayas? Do these tales have relevance today? In Wisdom of a Yogi, best-selling author, entrepreneur, and venture capitalist Rizwan Virk brings out the lessons from Yogananda's classic and reinterprets them for the modern age. In 14 unforgettable lessons, interweaving stories from the autobiography with tales of college professors, students, entrepreneurs, and modern seekers, Virk brings the ancient lessons of karma, yoga, meditation, and siddhas into the modern age of YouTube, video games, mobile phones, and social media. Whether you have never read or listened to the autobiography, or have experienced it multiple times, Wisdom of a Yogi will help enhance your spiritual practice in today's increasingly complex, cluttered, and connected world. Rizwan (“Riz”) Virk is a successful entrepreneur, investor, futurist, bestselling author, video game industry pioneer, and indie film producer. Riz received a B.S. in Computer Science from MIT, and a M.S. in Management from Stanford's GSB. He is currently working on a PhD at ASU's College of Global Futures, researching metaverse and virtual worlds. Riz has produced many indie films (imdb link), including Thrive, Sirius, Knights of Badassdom, starring Peter Dinklage and Summer Glau, The CW's The Outpost, as well as adaptations of the works of Philip K. Dick and Ursula K. Le Guin. ​ Riz’s books include Startup Myths & Models, The Simulation Hypothesis, Zen Entrepreneurship, and Treasure Hunt: Follow Your Inner Clues to Find True Success, and The Simulated Multiverse.

Welcome to the reality revolution. I'm so excited. I have once again, Rizwan Verk.

about simulation in the multiverse theory. For those that didn't see, Rizwan is a successful

0:19.9

entrepreneur, venture capitalist, video game pioneer, bestselling author, and a really good indie film producer.

He is the founder of Play Labs at MIT and Bayview Labs, a Silicon Valley Investment Fund.

he recently wrote another book on the wisdom of the yogi that goes into detail about the
