306/365 Overcoming Shyness and Growing into The Challenging Role of Director of Sunrise School in London - An Interview with Avadhutika Ananda Manika Acarya from India.

Didi Ananda Manika was in London from 2005 -the present day, when I was doing a PhD there. She is a very loving, humble and wise person with a very intimate relationship with Baba. We are inspired by her courage, caring nature and devotion in so many ways. In this podcast Didi shares her experiences as a child growing up in a Margii family during the Emergency when Baba was in jail. She also shares how she went for training to become a yogic nun at a very young age. The way she overcame so many challenges such as shyness, is deeply moving. I end with the song Tumi Kathay that we recorded together in London with the RAWA group around 2008.
