About the book :
Hollywood to the Himalayas is an enlightening memoir of a reluctant spiritual seeker who finds her true self and lifelong calling when she travels to India.
Agreeing to travel—because she loved the food—Sadhvi never imagined she would meet her guru and, as a result, find a way home to herself.
Now one of the preeminent female spiritual teachers in the world, Sadhvi recounts her journey with wit, honesty, and clarity and, along the way, offers teachings to help us all step onto our own path of awakening and discover the truth of who we really are—expansive love, perfection, and an embodiment of the Divine.
