Heartwarming and Uplifting

Another inside peek at the building of Ananda, this was a very enjoyable read from a devoted disciple who certainly seems to exemplify all that Swami Kriyananda wanted to share. I found it to be heartwarming and uplifting and i highly recommend it :)

My thanks for this book

I am so enjoying Parvati’s account of her years at Ananda. It feels like a journey I’m personally experiencing as I read the story that is Ananda. Reviewing events I’ve always heard and experiencing Swami’s leadership and direction, guidance and devotion to seeing Master’s vision move forward has been deeply inspiring. Thank you Parvati
