A woman's emancipation from her oppressive culture and fear of men; a physician's overcoming of his inability to cope with death and learning to love. An inspiring tale of two souls' journey halfway around the world toward spiritual enlightenment. "...Few novels manage to both tell a rousing, dramatic story and convey a deeply spiritual outlook on life. The Ashram is one of these few. The Ashram shows how holiness can be lived in the real, human world, yet it never condescends, preaches or stints on the frailties of its thoroughly human heroes and three- dimensional saints.

A woman's emancipation from her oppressive culture and fear of men; a physician's overcoming of his inability to cope with death and learning to love. An inspiring tale of two souls' journey halfway around the world toward spiritual enlightenment. "...Few novels manage to both tell a rousing, dramatic story and convey a deeply spiritual outlook on life. The Ashram is one of these few. The Ashram shows how holiness can be lived in the real, human world, yet it never condescends, preaches or stints on the frailties of its thoroughly human heroes and three- dimensional saints. Dr. Kingsley's spiritual growth is an organic part of his fight to save the woman he loves-a fight that includes plot twists and adventures to fill a summer blockbuster. In short, The Ashram will both enthrall readers and leave them feeling richer for the reading. -David King, Co-Author: Self-Editing For Fiction Writers, Contributing Editor, Writer's Digest "...This author bests James Redfield as a creator of action/ adventure. The Ashram is a rare combination-it explores the ancient and enduring questions, at the same time involving the reader in an exciting page-turner. The Ashram immerses the reader in the sensory bath that is India; as an American doctor, Jonathan Kingsley, searches for solace after the death of his wife. Jonathan finds more than he consciously sought: more about life's only certainty, death; and more about life's joy and its deeper meaning. Sattar Memon's forte is that he shares the secrets of this ancient civilization so that readers come to the same realizations Jonathan discovers in his quest. -Robert Gover, Editor, Writer's Digest School, Author of: One Hundred Dollar Misunderstanding, Here Goes Kitten, The JC Kitten Trilogy, And The Voodoo Contra, and many other books.
