Summary

This memoir and biography unfolds the inspiring internal and external spiritual odyssey of Yamuna Devi's devotional life recalled in her memories, talks, journals, and writings, as well as the remembrances of the author and other associates and friends.

It is supplemented with relevant music and live recordings of Yamuna Devi, some of which have never been heard before, which complements the text of the book.

In Part One, Yamuna Devi meets her spiritual preceptor, Srila Prabhupada, at her sister's wedding in 1966 and begins her first tentative steps in Bhakti. In San Francisco she and a group of friends establish a vibrant temple and celebrate Rathayatra. Yamuna is initiated, married, and begins cooking for Srila Prabhupada. She, her husband, and two other couples then travel to London and ignite the fire of Sankirtan in England. She records with George Harrison at Apple Studios and helps establish a temple in London. Her Guru's promise to take her to India is fulfilled in 1970, when she travels with the World Sankirtan Party throughout India.

Despite hardships and obstacles along the path, the seed of Yamuna Devi's Bhakti grows and matures into a life of unalloyed devotion.

Balaram appreciates Yamuna devi

This is one of the most beautifully profound books I have ever read and heard. I highly recommend it to anyone wishing to deepen their love for Krishna and for Krishna’s devotees.

Very Good !

Since the narration is done by the compiler of this lovely book, I am satisfied that there is a deep loving mood for the subject. I would like to add that Dinatarini's voice is not the easiest to the listen to. Therefore I would like to see a different narrator, making it easy for the most listeners. Thanks so much Dinatarini, for compiling these wonderful remembrances. Thanks Audible for making this book available.
