In the Company of the Wise: Remembering My Teachers, Reflecting the Light [Paperback]

Swami Sivananda Radha (Author)

Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

Radha was born in Germany and eventually emigrated to Canada. After many years of training in India, she established her own ashrams, or centers for spiritual instruction. Thus, her title "Swami" is not to be taken lightly. Here, she provides an expanded, updated version of her previous book Gods Who Walk the Rainbow (Timeless Bks., 1981). The first section details personal encounters with 17 gurus in India, including a piece on her own guru, Sivananda. While some background in Indian religion is helpful, the text is easily comprehensible to the interested layperson. A brief second section gives tips for the spiritual aspirant. Recommended for collections in spiritual development.

This review is from: In the Company of the Wise: Remembering My Teachers, Reflecting the Light (Paperback)

this book is a sequel to Radha: Diary of a Woman's Search.
It is a very enlightening book, I could not put it down! In this book she takes you on her journey to India and talks about all the great mystics she has met and learned from (Dalai Lama, Papa Ram Das, and many others). A very insightful read.
