Episode 14: His Mind Was Very Strong - Geeta Iyengar
Welcome to Season 2 of "On the Light". I’m very happy to be releasing this special episode of an interview about Guruji given by his daughter, Geeta Iyengar. This interview took place in 2003. Kristin and Lee were in Pune for Guruji’s 85th birthday celebration. Our region was busy preparing for the 2004 convention that would be held here in Saint Paul. Neither Geetaji nor Guruji were able to attend, so Kristin and Lee had the idea to ask Geeta for an interview that could be shown at the convention. She generously accepted. You will only hear Geeta’s voice in this interview. Kristin and Lee wanted it to be that way. I think you’ll find as I did that hearing the questions isn’t necessary to be able to follow along with what she is speaking about.
What you are hearing today is just the audio of the interview. Perhaps at some point we can release the video in some format.
Please enjoy this episode of “On the Light”.
