A Life-Changing Spiritual Adventure Memoir by the author of Spirituality For Dummies and Secrets of Spiritual Happiness.
The purpose of this memoir is to awaken readers to new ways of looking at their own lives as they join author Sharon Kumuda Janis on a metaphysical cruise through her interesting and educational life, with stories that reveal the humor and pathos of a quest for eternal truth in our modern-day world.
Sharon's eclectic journey includes taking a three-month course in hypnosis with her psychology teacher parents at age seven, explorations of consciousness while studying neuroscience at the University of Michigan, ten years living a monastic style life in the Siddha Yoga ashram of Baba Muktananda and Gurumayi Chidvilasananda, then a transition from the ashram to Hollywood, where the author jumps into an award-winning television and film career, editing and producing some of the most popular shows of the 1990s, and helping to start or uplift the career of many famous, nonfamous, and infamous people, before retreating to a peaceful life of creative solitude and service, writing books including Spirituality For Dummies, and creating the well-stocked Night Lotus website of free multimedia spiritual resources.
A beautiful and poignant spiritual odyssey that is equally provocative and touching, informative and enlightening, humorous and heartbreaking. - Joseph Chilton Pearce
In a larger sense, this memoir is a dialogue between Indian spirituality and Western psychology. The question that Janis answers is: "Can a westerner come to know Indian spirituality and flourish in its depths, even when it is alien to western ways of knowing?'" She answers with a resounding "yes." - Publishers Weekly
It's a good story, and for those of us who are interested in what exactly goes on in those ashrams, it's hard to put down... Few writers so far have told the tale of what it is like to live and study, heart and soul, with the likes of Muktananda. - RALPH: Review of the Arts, Literature, Philosophy and the Humanities
Inspired by deep guidance and inner listening, this book aims to bring readers to "a sense of wonder and respect for their own journey" and a greater regard for others on their paths. - NAPRA ReVIEW
It is a book that is very difficult to put down-the kind that keeps you up at night beyond your bedtime. - 21st Century Books
