Born in British India to an itinerant Sanskrit scholar, Rama defied social boundaries to recite the sacred legends. Eventually, she appeared before a panel of experts in British Calcutta, earned the title Pandita, and became a public lecturer until she married. As a widow, Rama returned to her profession before traveling to England for further education at Cheltenham. While there, Rama accepted Christian baptism. Rama continued on to America where she raised funds for her still-existing ashram near Pune, India.
Rama’s Labyrinth is the true inspirational story of one woman’s quest for self-discovery and spiritual growth.

Rama's Labyrinth: A Biographical Novel (Women of Determination and Courage)
Sound waves bounced in the enclosed space. Rama could hardly think. Her heart pounded. And then she saw him. Lord Krishna playing his flute, just as he had when he was a young man. The image’s staring eyes seemed less interested in his worshippers than music. His cheeks with their circular designs were full of air. Rama couldn’t take her eyes away. Sounds receded. It seemed as if she and Lord Krishna were alone. This must be what happened with the cow herders’ wives she thought before she lost consciousness.
