Reseña del editor:
What inspired a housewife from the suburbs of Philadelphia to move to a remote ashram in the mountains of British Columbia? In 1967, Swami Durgananda, then a housewife and mother named Margaret White, met Swami Sivananda Radha for the first time. Over the next several years, the two corresponded through letters, and in 1978, Margaret visited Yasodhara Ashram. There, deep in the mountains of British Columbia, she began to piece together the clues in a lifelong mystery: her calling toward the Divine. Her guru, Swami Sivananda Radha, guided her along – sometimes in the most unexpected ways. The diaries, spanning almost 30 years, illuminate the dedication and commitment required on the spiritual path. Swami Durgananda paints a wonderfully realistic portrait of spiritual life, and offers a rare personal glimpse into the world of one of North America’s most respected yoginis, Swami Sivananda Radha.This is the story of two extraordinary women and the transformative relationship between guru and disciple."In Durga’s Embrace is a moving testimony to Swami Durgananda’s sincerity in serving her teacher. She chronicles her own ups and downs in this revealing diary which can only serve as an inspiration for those seeking to tread the spiritual path." - Tenzin Palmo, Author of Reflections on a Mountain Lake
