Sri Sri Daya Mata is the foremost living disciple of Paramahansa Yogananda. A true ''Mother of Compassion,'' as her name signifies, she has inspired thosen of faiths and from all walks of life with the wisdom and great love of God conveyed through her talks, writngs, and recordings. Referring to her first volume of spirital counsel, Only Love, the former Ambassador of India to the United States, N. A. Palkhivala, wrote: Sri Daya Mata personifier love and compassion and the other timeless values of Indian culture....Her speeches are not dry academic dissertations on abstact theological principles, but intensely personal hymns teatifying to her ecstatic vision of the Creator.
