Mantra Initiation

Description: Mantra Initiation is an inspiring guide for anyone interested in mantra initiation and for those already initiated. Swami Sivananda Radha and Swami Radhananda describe their unique approaches to initiation from their own experiences of being imitated and from initiating others. They emphasize that mantra initiation is one of the most important commitments to be made on the yogic path. The starting point is a sincere desire for liberation and in-depth personal investigation.

Mantra Initiation explores issues such as the guru-disciple relationship, preparing for initiation, and following through on commitment. Included are question and reflections to provide support on the journey into initiation and beyond. -- from back cover
