One Woman's Journey Around Mount Kailash

Produktbeschreibung

RISING MAGNIFICENTLY in the wilderness of Western Tibet, Mount Kailash is one of three sacred mountains in Tibet. Its shape is unmistakable: a symmetrical cone marked with striations and graced with perpetual snows. Four rivers emanate from it, nourishing the entire region. Mount Kailash is the center of the spiritual universe. It is sacred to four religions: Buddhism, Hinduism, Bon, and Jainism. For Hindus, it is the home of Shiva. All of these statements are true of this magnifi cent mountain, but the truest is what my teacher said to me before I left to do prostrations around Mt. Kailash: "The center of the spiritual universe already exists in your human heart. Meet your mirror."

Autorenporträt

Dr. Alysson's Tibetan pilgrimage is inspiring and deserving of praise. Her narrative of her journey to and in Tibet highlights the uniqueness of Tibet's cultural heritage while also emphasizing cross-cultural connections borne out of love and respect. The International Campaign for Tibet welcomes Dr. Alysson's account as a reminder of the strength of the human spirit and the importance of keeping Tibetan traditions alive and evolving in the face of Chinese repression. -- International Campaign for Tibet In reading her journal of the path around Mt. Kailash and her introspections following in the Epilogue and Lessons and Changes, I begin to grasp what it truly means to live and die in the arms of love - naked love - devoid of all the delusions we wrap ourselves in every day. Regardless of one's spiritual intentions or path, this story off ers the reader a mirror for the hard work of learning to receive oneself in love so that we may hold others, all the planet, in love. It is necessary work for this time on the planet. After all, "All there is is love... And the love is endless." --Barbara Meyers, MSW, author of Common Ground, Uncommon Gifts: Growing Peace and Harmony through Stories, Refl ections, and Practices in the Natural World
