Acerca de esta escucha
A novel that will inspire you to engage in life’s great adventures.
Identify and reveal the road to freedom through introspection and self-discovery.
Searching for Monkumar contains several signposts to life's important lessons. It takes some of us a lifetime to discover, and it’s okay to be reminded by as many signposts as you need.
The principals within this book are universal to the human species, but India is a perfect place to start Searching for Monkumar.
An extraordinary tale by Gordon Lee Chambers, a quest for truth and hope, through friendship, mysticism, music, and spirituality. Discover the path of gratitude and understand the power of synchronicity.
An amazing and engrossing tale of a journey to find that which is forever elusive.
Follow an epic pilgrimage of two lifelong friends, wandering minstrels from West Bengal, as they journey to Varanasi, the Kumbh Mela, and onward toward the source of the River Ganges high up in the Himalayas.
This novel is set in India at the turn of the century, and this was where the original film material that seeded the story was shot. Actually, were it not for the original film footage that set the Indian theme, the book could have been set anywhere in the world.
It could just as easily be two shaman walking through Central America; an Aboriginal tracker in the heart of Australia; two monks escaping from Tibet; two medicine mystics in Africa; Sufi poets in Eurasia; or a couple of Christian mystics traveling through Europe.

Learned notes from the author offer rich cultural context. This volume is a doorway into a captivating world.

What if you could live in a world where the guidance of those who were gone was available, right at your very fingertips? It's possible, if we are open to it. Anyone can reclaim the forgotten guidance of the dead, and anyone can return to the realm of magic and miracles. In Take Back the Magic: Conversations with the Unseen World, author, spiritual teacher, and co-founder of The Way of the Rose Perdita Finn reveals that life is beginningless, love is endless, and those who have passed don’t truly go anywhere when they die.

He grows up the son of a Brahman, and his quest for self discovery takes him through living as an asthetic until he actually meets the Buddha, but decides not to follow him, but rather discover the joys of sex and a wealth through a beautiful courtesan. He lives the life of the Playboy until one day he renounces it all to seek a more spiritual being. In the end Siddhartha does find enlightenment.

In 1923, 17-year-old Esther arrives in Köln "with a hardened heart as her sole luggage.” Thus begins a 22-year journey, woven against the European Holocaust and the Hindu Kali Yuga (the “Age of Darkness” when human civilization degenerates spiritually), in search of a place of sanctuary. Throughout her travails, using cunning and shrewdness, Esther relies on her masterful tailoring skills to help mask her Jewish heritage, navigate war-torn Europe, and emigrate to India. Esther’s traveling companion and the novel’s narrator is Ganesha, the elephant-headed Hindu God....

After finishing his powerful memoir The Return, Hisham Matar, seeking solace and pleasure, traveled to Siena, Italy. Always finding comfort and clarity in great art, Matar immersed himself in eight significant works from the Sienese School of painting, which flourished from the 13th to the 15th centuries. Artists he had admired throughout his life, including Duccio and Ambrogio Lorenzetti, evoke earlier engagements he'd had with works by Caravaggio and Poussin, and the personal experiences that surrounded those moments.

Set in the wake of the Mau Mau rebellion and on the cusp of Kenya's independence from Britain, A Grain of Wheat follows a group of villagers whose lives have been transformed by the 1952-1960 Emergency. At the center of it all is the reticent Mugo, the village's chosen hero and a man haunted by a terrible secret. As we learn of the villagers' tangled histories in a narrative interwoven with myth and peppered with allusions to real-life leaders, including Jomo Kenyatta, a masterly story unfolds in which compromises are forced, friendships are betrayed, and loves are tested.
