Part 1
This program is the first in a
series of six. Each part will focus on a particular period of Sri
Easwaran’s years as a spiritual teacher. Part 1 tells the story of
the events leading up to and immediately following his arrival in
the U.S. in July, 1959. In addition to comments by Easwaran himself,
you’ll be hearing from his wife, Christine, who now serves as the
Life Trustee of the BMCM. You’ll also hear from two of Easwaran’s
longtime students: Tim Flinders, who became Easwaran’s student in
1966 and interviewed Easwaran many times about his life history; and
Mary Davenport, who joined Easwaran in 1961 and has been a part of
the BMCM history ever since.
The program runs a total of 60 minutes, and each segment is about 6–8 minutes.
Please go to our Guest Book if you would like to share your thoughts or read what others have said.
This program, and all the work of the BMCM, depends on contributions.
