"A Fascinating Account of Timeless Friendship " “A Divine Friendship Beyond Time” is a fascinating and instructive account of both a unique spiritual friendship and the inspiring developments that gave birth to the magnificent Atlanta SRF Temple. I always love hearing stories about Yoganandaji, and I was deeply moved by the faith, graces, cooperation, hard work, and creativity that made the Temple 2000 dream a living reality.
I highly recommend this superb book, especially for those who enjoy touching stories about direct personal interactions with Paramahansa Yogananda, and for those in small SRF meditation groups who will be inspired by the rapid growth of the Atlanta SRF... More > meditation group from seven members to a large thriving community supporting a newly constructed and beautiful temple, all in less than a decade.
Beyond the captivating account of the sweet and timeless friendship between Mary Lou Edwards and Paramahansa Yogananda, the stories in this quick-reading, slim volume precipitated within me a great deal of extremely valuable introspection that I will keep to myself. Suffice it to say, the process was powerful and transformative!
