Based on a true story, SUPRIYA is the beloved parable of a mothers determination to help her son get out of prison. Although she took vows as a yogic nun during her first year at the ashram, thoughts of her youngest sons incarceration continue to disturb her mind. After studying for three years with her Master, Supriyas inner voice guides her to leave the spiritual community in California and move to Northern Canada to be near her son.
Despite warnings from family and friends who say its impossible to help violent offenders, Supriya is determined to obey the voice that speaks through her heart. When she kneels before her silent guru to inform him of her departure, he writes on his chalkboard, It is your duty. Teach your son everything Ive taught you.
This motivating saga brings laughter and tears as one compassionate mother teaches her son to live a peaceful life. Filled with wisdom, vulnerability, and humor, this extraordinary story speaks to the spiritual warrior that abides in us all.
