A Handbook for Drowning by David Shields

In this book, Sri Mrinalini Mata, president of Self-Realization Fellowship / Yogoda Satsanga Society of India, recounts her experiences of traveling with Sri Daya Mata during a trip to India in 1961. Sri Mrinalini Mata's experiences in India were truly remarkable, for she not only came in contact with two of India's most revered twentieth-century saints Sri Anandamoyi Ma and Sri Sitaramdas Omkarnath but she also was night and day in the presence of Daya Mata, who today is widely revered as a saint herself. There are more than 40 color and sepia tone images in this beautifully presented book. Many of the photos were taken by Sri Ananda Mata, sister of Sri Daya Mata, and also by Mrinalini Mata herself. As 2017 marks the centennial of Paramahansa Yogananda's work in India, it is a fitting occasion to bring out this inspiring account for the first time in book form.
