About this audiobook
From Mud to Lotus is a riveting tale of resilience, courage, and transformation that follows the remarkable journey of a young woman through the tumultuous landscapes of war-torn Palestine and Israel, the rebellious '60s in California, and finally, to spiritual awakening in India.
This poignant and inspiring story is a testament to the human spirit's ability to rise from the ashes and bloom anew, even in the most challenging of circumstances. Join Pratibha on this incredible odyssey and discover the power of the human soul to transcend adversity and emerge as a radiant lotus from the murky mud.
