Movie: Awake: The Life of Yogananda more hagiography than biopic
“This earth is nothing but movies to me,” said Paramahansa Yogananda in his best-selling Autobiography of a Yogi, calling life itself “nothing but shadows and light”. Film is a natural medium, then, to convey the famous teacher’s life. But Awake: The Life of Yogananda is a mixed blessing: an intriguing overview for those who know very little or a lot about the man and his message; frustratingly incomplete for everyone in between.

Locally called ganja, the herb was a luxury for royalty to relax while it was a lifeline for fakirs to fight hunger and pain. The Theosophist Vol.IV dated March 1883 records comments of H.P.Blavatsky on a Hindu ascetic, who arrived to live in Surat, "He does not receive alms but only accepts drugs like ganja and sooka. He does not require any food. Hundreds of thousands of pointed nails were fixed on the wooden shoes he wears and bench he sleeps on."

Allamah Tabatabai represents that central and intellectually dominating class of Shi’ite ulama who have combined interest in jurisprudence and Quranic commentary with philosophy, theosophy, and Sufism and who represent a more universal interpretation of the Shi’ite point of view. Within the class of the traditional ulama, ’Allamah Tabatabai possesses the distinction of being a master of both the esoteric sciences and at the same time he is an outstanding hakim or traditional Islamic philosopher (or more exactly, “theosopher”).
