In her Introduction the author traces her spiritual adventure from
the early days of her teen-age practise of contemplation. The
relaxation sessions with which each day began at Speech Therapy
College began her formal training. A member of the C of E, she had
a spiritual director from the Community of the Resurrection in
Mirfield, and stayed at the enclosed Convent of the Incarnation in
Oxford. After a theology course at College of Ascension Birmingham
she sailed for India in 1964. There she was introduced to to the
Abhishiktananda Society which promoted Hindu-Christian dialogue.
After attending the Inauguration of the Church of North India she
visited Gandh-ji's ashram at Sevagram and Vinoba Bhave's ashram not
far away. In both of these ashrams the day began before dawn with
silent meditation in a dark room lit by a single candle. She was
privileged to attend a question/answer session with Vinoba Bhave
himself. During those years she read the Upanishads and came to
accept the belief in non-duality, advaita, without this in any way
compromising her faith in Christ. In 1977 she married Salman Hashmi
of the Muslim community and they had a son and a daughter. By the
1990's she was studying New Age methods of meditation, and this
Diary is a record of the extraordinary results.
