There are excerpts from the book in some of the recent magazines published by CSA (Davis' own publications sent out every few weeks). He speaks about receiving the benedictions of Yogananda's spiritual grace in the first few weeks of going to Mount Washington when he turned 18 and chose Yogananda as his guru.

Davis himself says so very weird things. ONe of the weirdest things he says is that you have to have a physical guru. This is weird because a self-realised person is one with God and therefore omnipresent in the universe. Why then, do you need to have a physical guru? Makes no sense.

Davis has also had more than 4 wives. That seems like a typical western thing - but more so in light of the fact that Davis is supposed to be a saint!!! Saranam has also said that Davis has not demonstrated the breathless state of samadhi.
