2007 reissue for John Fahey's 1973 Takoma release, his only non-Christian religious recording. Released for the first time with its original sleeve, the packaging also includes facsimiles of the "Yogaville West" leaflet that accompanied the first pressings. The album consists of three long tracks recorded in tribute to Swami Satchidananda. Fahey later said 'Probably the primary reason I got involved with them was that I fell in love with Swami Satchidananda's secretary Shanti Norris. So I was doing benefits for them, hoping to score points with her, and along the way I learned a lot of hatha yoga.' Takoma.
