Living the Practice: Volume 1: The Way of Love (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781610885768)

From an early age, Rohini Ralby was committed to finding the best teachers in every field she pursued. Originally from the Boston area, she completed her undergraduate studies at Washington University in St. Louis and earned a graduate degree at Mills College.While at Mills, she began intensive study of Tai Chi Chuan, and subsequently ran her own school in Cambridge, Massachusetts while also earning a degree in acupuncture and studying Chinese calligraphy and Alexander Technique. In 1974, she met Swami Muktananda Paramahamsa, and remained a close disciple until his mahasamadhi in 1982. During that time, she studied spiritual practice with him one-on-one.

In the four decades since Muktananda, affectionately known as Baba, left his body, she has continued to devotedly live that practice.Since 1990, she has shared it with students all over the world. In 2012, with Bancroft Press, Rohini published Walking Home with Baba: The Heart of Spiritual Practice, a guide to the inner practice she learned from Muktananda and continues to share. Living the Practice: The Way of Love is the first of two books that collect Rohini's shorter writings in both prose and verse as well as some of her paintings, organized thematically so readers can locate, read, revisit, and contemplate her teachings and reflections.
