Education
for Life
Preparing
Children to Meet the Challenges
By
J. Donald Walters
J.
Donald Walters
Author of Education
for Life, J. Donald Walters has a single life-long
purpose of inspiring people to higher and better ways of
living. His more than 100 books offer wise and practical
guidance in every aspect of life: education, leadership,
marriage, the arts, human relationships, meditation &
yoga, and the relationship of the individual to the higher
self, God. The 400 musical pieces he has composed offer
a way to approach life that is uplifting, inspiring and
spiritually beneficial-a welcome alternative to the ego-centeredness
of "popular culture."
In 1948, at the age of 22, he became a disciple of the great
master of yoga, Paramhansa
Yogananda, author of Autobiography
of a Yogi. Six months after living with him, Yogananda
put Mr. Walters in charge of the monks in his organization.
In 1968, sixteen years after Yogananda's death, Mr. Walters
founded Ananda
Village, a thriving spiritual community dedicated
to "plain living and high thinking." Today, there
are six Ananda communities located in the U.S. and Europe,
and countless thousands of individuals worldwide who have
benefited from his work. He currently lives in the Ananda
India community in Delhi, where he devotes
his life to writing, teaching, and inspiring others towards
a life of higher consciousness.
