A series of books aimed at offering the reader a glimpse inside the places where people go to spend extended periods of time -- sometimes entire lifetimes -- focused on prayer, meditation, or study. Each volume conveys a detailed and accurate view of daily life "inside the walls" in clear, jargon-free language, and also serves as an introduction to the heart of a great spiritual tradition. Ashram is the general term for a study center, retreat house, or monastic community in Hinduism, the millennia-old religious tradition of India. Ashrams of various kinds are now found throughout North America, and are popular venues for spiritual retreats, workshops, and classes. Lighting the Lamp of Wisdom takes you into a typical week of
retreat inside an ashram to demystify the ashram experience and
show you what to expect from your own visit. You will experience
all the elements of a typical day and week, including: ...and much more. You'll also meet some of the people who visit ashrams to hear their reasons for going, as well as the spiritual benefits they derive from the experience. Also included are a helpful glossary, a list of books for further reading, and a directory to ashrams in North America and elsewhere that will enable you to locate one near you and set up your own visit.
