Only love : living the spiritual life in a changing world

"Thave had the privilege of meeting several times with Sri Daya Mata... Anyone who has been in her presence cannot fail to be affected by the aura of spiritual peace and serenity that she radiates. Sri Daya Mataji was moved at a very young age to follow the teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda; obviously, the divine spark of illumination emanating from [him] had touched her even in youth. She became one of the first followers of Sri Yoganandaji during his lifetime, and...his worthy spiritual successor in carrying his message not only in this country and my own [India], but across the world.

"This message of peace and inner tranquillity, and of an integrated human personality, is most relevant to our times. We live in an age of turmoil.... We need, more than ever before, human beings who are integrated individuals... The message of Sri Daya Mataji is therefore one of great importance and relevance in this age of doubt and skepticism. Her talks published in this book stand out as a beacon of hope and faith. They are a proclamation, not only of the oneness of the human race, but also of the oneness of man with God."
