Sadvi Bhagwati - July 20, 2006
In 2000, I was traveling through Rishikesh and
happened upon this beautiful ashram on the banks of the river
Ganges known as Parmarth Niketan Ashram. As I was waiting in the
reception area to meet Puyja Swami Chidanand Saraswataji, a
great Guru known throughout India for his loving heart and
beautiful nature, I overheard this American voice talking in
fluent Hindi in the office next to where I was sitting. I was
astounded as I heard this American woman converse easily with a
steady flow of Indian Gurus, Yoga teachers, Indian staff and
Indian visitors who filed in and out of her office. Finally,
after about 1 hour, this beautiful young girl draped in a white
sari with a red bindi on her forehead came out of the office and
looked me straight in the eyes and said, "Hi I'm Sadhvi Bhagwati."
