Don't know that book, but I did read a book by M.M.Yogi in the late 60's... while listening to the White Album by the Beatles. For that reason, I'll always associate M.M.Y with the piece by George Harrison....
"We were talking...
about the space between us all....
....."
I remember having great difficulty concentrating on it back then...
but I was young. Maybe now it would be different.
