This book is Sister Gargi's memoir of the time spent in the company of her beloved teacher, Swami Ashokananda, between 1950 and 1970. She uses journal entries to tell the inspiring story of her life-changing relationship with a great teacher. It takes the reader on a powerful journey of self-discovery.
Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life -- think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success, and this is the way great spiritual giants are produced. Others are mere talking machines.
-Swami Vivekananda
