Notes | Anandamayi was a simple country girl from a remote village on the easternmost border of India who became a personality of the highest spiritual distinction. Passing through all stages and varieties of Yoga to their final perfection in an extraordinarily short time span, as a young woman she was best known for her spectacular states of trance. Like her predecessor, Shankaracharya, Sri Anandamayi encompaassed all castes, faiths and creeds. For a woman to command such respect is unprecedented in Indian spiritual history. [goodreads.com] |
