Diesel, A Bookstore in Malibu is totally stoked to host an afternoon with award-winning journalist and surfer Jaimal Yogis as he discusses and signs his memoir, Saltwater Buddha: A Surfer's Quest to Find Zen on the Sea, on Sunday, August 23rd, at 3 p.m. Fed up with suburban teenage life, Jaimal Yogis ran off to Hawaii with little more than a copy of Hermann Hesse's Siddhartha and enough cash for a surfboard. His journey is a coming-of-age saga that takes him from communes to monasteries and the icy New York shore. Equal parts spiritual memoir and surfer's tale, this is a chronicle of finding meditative focus in the barrel of a wave and eternal truth in the great salty blue. Join us!
