Résumé : |
Vandana Mataji spends six months of the year in Rishikesh, Himalayas, in prayer, study and dialogue with Hindu masters and sad/ut/cas from India and abroad. With her Guru-behn Ishpriya Mataji, she gives retreats and courses based on yogic spirituality in different parts of the world wherever invited, and spends the rest of the year at Jeevan-Dbara Ashram in Jaiharikhal, Garhwal, (Himalayas) where God-seekers of all denominations are welcomed.
Here she presents us with a study, at once practical and theological, of The Prayer of the Name in the Hindu and Christian traditions. As Swami Chidananda says, it should be of immense benefit to seekers both in the East and in the West. |
