No copies located by OCLCSister Avabamia nee Mary Elizabeth Stevenson was a disciple of Swami Abhedananda who was one one of Sri Ramakrishnaâ€™s early followers. She became a devotee after hearing Swami Vivekenanda speak in San Francisco around the turn of the century. Sister Avabamia was the leading light for the Vendantic Movement in Australia and New Zealand. In 1910 the Fitzroy City News described her thusly - â€œThe gifted lecturer delivered two lectures every Sunday in the Masonic Hall and during the week held two meetings. Her work carried conviction of its absolute truthfulness and her words of wisdom must have been the result of laborious thought. Though a student for 25 years Sister Avabamia with native modesty says her knowledge is only â€œlike a spoonful of water in the ocean.â€ She has a fine personality; robed in her renunciation dress she shows a force of character and a brilliant ability to combat the problems of lifeâ€¦ In the fall of 1911 Sister Avabamia went to Ceylon and India and established some new Vedanta Centers which the Swamis at Belur Math did not recognize. Inspired by Vivekenandaâ€™s educational ideas she established two schools in Ceylon which were eventually taken over by the Ramakrishna Mission. In 1912 she left India and broke away from the Ramakrishna Order. News of her activities for the years 1905-12 appear in the monthly journal she initiated The Star of the East later named the Vedanta Universal Messenger published first in Sydney and then in Melbourne Australiaâ€ Stavig; Western Admirers of Ramakrishna and His Disciples.Vivekananda was one of the main representatives of Neo-Vedanta a modern interpretation of selected aspects of Hinduism in line with western esoteric traditions especially Transcendentalism New Thought and Theosophy. His reinterpretation was and is very successful creating a new understanding and appreciation of Hinduism within and outside India and was the principal reason for the enthusiastic reception of yoga transcendental meditation and other forms of Indian spiritual self-improvement in the West.
