The first time I came to the ashram, 1996, I was drawn to these teachings like a bee to a flower. It was your complete dedication to your guru along with an unshakable commitment to the teachings that I admired. I never really got to know you but there were so many times when you would just give me a motion of your hands, a look and a few words of encouragement that would open a door deep within and I could grasp an understanding of something in a new way. I remember one time I had questions about a teacher or guru and you took me to the garden in Many Mansions and showed me how the smaller younger trees were supported by the older more mature trees. You said we are all sisters on the path and we help each other. You were so humble and easy to talk to. I am filled with deep gratitude for this place and for your dedication in making the teachings available and the ashram thriving. Thank you Swami Radhananda for all I have received. Om Tat Sat
