Romola Butalia Book

Romola Butalia’s book, In the Presence of the Masters is an account of meetings with Himalayan masters. It traverses the spiritual path and practices that have been transmitted through untold ages. A spiritual journey, a narration of circumstance and events that took the writer  ‘home’ on an uncharted path.

Through a search for meaning in life, seeking to fulfil the purpose of one’s life, reputed journalist, Romola Butalia finds herself on a spiritual search through coincidental meetings with many saints and sages.

Questioning the quest itself, focused on the words of wisdom received, the author is inevitably led to the myths and legends about many great masters, and tries to unravel the mysteries that present themselves through life itself. The answers lie in the very questions themselves. The future unfolds according to the past and the journey of life continues.
