Inspiration Sunday - Inspired Life

In the summer of 2012, Yoga International magazine profiled my teacher, the creator and founder of Svaroopa® yoga. It was the short story of her journey from Rama Berch to Swami Nirmalananda Saraswati. Having been her student since 2000, I was present to experience her amazing gift to teach to teach not just yoga asana, but the philosophy, which became my favorite subject. Her dedication and stamina to keep teaching, writing, and promoting all things yoga was inspiring. She had been teaching yoga for 3 decades by then, had been the founding president of Yoga Alliance, creator of Deepak Chopra's yoga program, and helped to draft the first national standards for yoga teachers. During the 1970s, Rama spent time in India with her guru, Swami Muktananda.
The title of the magazine article is "Not -So-Suddenly Swami." It starts by saying:
"In 2009, Rama Berch traveled to Ganeshpuri, India, and returned to the United States as Swami Nirmalananda Saraswati."
The article by Anna Dubrovsky goes on to describe the transition along with Swami's quotes about her experience.
This is about a woman who has dedicated her life to sharing every aspect of yoga, guiding students to discover their own divinity.
