About Deborah Morin
A practitioner of yoga, Deborah Morin developed a close relationship with Swami Sundaranand, known as the "clicking sawmi," on a spiritual pilgrimage to India in 2003. People throughout India revere the yogi, mountaineer and photographer for his high level of spiritual and environmental awareness and for his efforts to spread that awareness to others.
