A Dog Called Buddha

"Forest fires, stray dogs, psychotropic drugs and hatha yoga. This is a compelling journey across landscapes both external and interior. Its like Carlos Castaneda turns Dog Whisperer and stumbles on some Gritty Truths."

Terry Macalister

A story of a journey in an old Land Rover with four rescued dogs through the foothills of the mountains in central Portugal to escape the wildfires raging across the country.

Along the way this little book explores our place here on earth, in nature, and the creatures we share it with. Yoga threads gently through its pages, weaving a pattern so that the Bhagavad Gita, the Yoga Sutras, and the Upanishads are joined in their perennial truths, which become clear in the journey through the fire.
