The life of Sri Swami Rama is one of the great spiritual journeys of our time. Here is a celebration in words and pictures of a remarkable life lived selflessly in service to humankind - the most comprehensive portrait of the master available.

From his early years of study with the yogis of the high Himalayas to his mission in the West, where he founded the Himalayan International Institute, we follow Swami Rama on his path as spiritual leader and teacher, scientist and humanitarian. Written with love and insight by Pandit Rajmani Tigunait, Ph.D., a beloved disciple of Swami Rama, and beautifully designed, the book contains hundreds of photographs from personal collections from around the world, many never before published, plus a rich collection of the masters own words.

This inspiring book is an invaluable contribution to the body of spiritual literature and a living legacy of the sage who touched the hearts of millions with his compassion, patience, and wisdom.
