High in the Himalayas, Leela, a New Yorker, unexpectedly undertakes
a terrifying yet ultimately enlightening spiritual journey into the
deepest secrets of her mind. In Darjeeling, at Maharishi's ashram,
under the sure guidance of the yogi master, she reaches her great
realization. On her return to New York she struggles, and
ultimately succeeds, in sharing the secret teachings of her vision.
The novel uncovers archetypal and highly relevant spiritual
teachings. East meets West in Leela helping her as Maharishi says,
"To understand ancient wisdom in a modern world." Meditation and
yoga offer practical paths to freedom from the often dispiriting
and desperate quality of our contemporary lives. In captivating
prose the novel intertwines Leela's journey with modern philosophy
and primal wisdom telling a story as old as the human heart.
