The Story Of Swami Rama - Holybook

The Story Of Swami Rama
was however no part of any organised missionary
activity, nor did he ever care to seek pecuniary
support for the cause of Vedanta. The value of his
appeal lay not in any resulting funds but in his
own radiant magnetic personality which left its
indelible impress upon one and all.
The lectures that he delivered and the talks that he
gave in America during this period have been
collected and published under the title "In Woods
of God-Realisation‖. They were taken down just as
he talked by a lady steno-typist, Mrs. P. Whitman,
a great admiring disciple of the Swami, and on
account of his sudden death, they were published
just as they were taken down without being
revised. They fill three large royal octavo size
volumes of about 500 pages each.
The following letter, sent to me after his death, by
Mrs. Wellman of Los Angeles, California faithfully
records how highly infectious were not only the
joy, but the ideas of Swami Rama. I met this
devoted lady, Mrs. Wellman, at Dehra Dun, India,
when she was on a visit to this country and we
together made a pilgrimage to the Tehri hills and
toured the Punjab plains.
