Author and poet Barbara Schmitz offers a heartful, funny, and
deeply moving "spiritual autobiography" that brings the reader
along on each stage of her fervent inner quest for mystical
experience. Beginning with a Catholic girlhood in Nebraska, she
graduates to an unlikely apprenticeship with Allen Ginsberg at the
Naropa Institute; a dedicated transcendental meditation practice;
and finally to thirty years of joys and struggles with a Sufi
teacher (Shahabuddin Less) with whom she travels to Bali, Turkey,
India, Kashmir, and the Holy Land. Incisive as lightning-the
meaning of her Sufi name, Vajra-her questions and yearning are our
own, and she doesn't let God, her teacher, or herself off the hook.
