Story
Letters to a Starseed asks the biggest questions that mystics and philosophers through the ages have been asking: What is the soul, where did it originate, and why have we chosen to come here at this time? As a planet, we are waking up to the fact that the ancient prophecies and warnings from the elders and wise ones are no longer predictions, but our waking reality. They are not just coming or even near...we are living them right now. What we do now matters to the future of this planet. And we all have a role to play. Do you remember why you have come?

Story
At the end of 2017, feeling burnt out and broken, Emma decided to go on a year-long quest for inner peace - from the comfort of her own home. She tried all sorts of spiritual practices in a bid to derive more meaning from life. The result was a year that changed everything. A year that turned frantic chaos into life in the slow lane. A year of magic and moonlight and pink sky sunrises. A year fragranced with incense and burning herbs (that sometimes smelled suspiciously illegal).

Navsari, India. Penniless and trapped in a loveless marriage, Nirmala spends her days anxiously caring for her sick young son, Varun. Looming over Nirmala’s impoverished home is an imposing mansion built by her grandfather, and from its balcony her cruel aunt scorns them, refusing to help in any way. But when a mysterious letter addressed to her long-dead father arrives from Zimbabwe, it opens a door to a past Nirmala never knew existed and a future she never imagined possible.

Publisher's Summary
A powerful memoir of overcoming adversity that will inspire you to find strength from within and shape your own destiny.
Bharti Dhir faced many challenges in her childhood that could have broken her. As a baby, she was abandoned at a roadside in the Ugandan heat and miraculously found by a passerby. By divine guidance, Bharti's adoptive mother was led to her hospital cot and welcomed Bharti into their Punjabi Sikh family. Despite experiencing sexism and racism as an Asian-African girl and developing an incurable skin condition, Bharti found hope through the fear and prejudice.
Then, in 1972 when Idi Amin expelled Asians from Uganda, Bharti's family were forced to flee to the UK. She remembers the horrific moment when her adoptive mother was ordered, at gunpoint, to abandon Bharti because of the color of her skin. With incredible courage, she refused, risking their lives to protect Bharti as her own.
Throughout her struggles, Bharti retained faith in a divine power within all of us that gives us strength, protects us, and loves us unconditionally. Years later, now a social worker specializing in child protection, Bharti lives in the UK with an adopted daughter of her own and has found her true purpose and sense of self-worth.

LOVE this book!
I can not even describe what a beautiful story this is. The author shares unimaginable life experiences through human feelings we can all relate to. Honestly, I almost didn’t give this book a chance simply because it didn’t have many reviews at the time I purchased. I’m grateful to have learned my lesson though and to have had the opportunity to hear the truly incredible outlook the author has because of the life she has lived. Bharti will inspire and touch anyone who reads this. The narrator’s voice is lovely too. Very well read and I felt like she drew my into the story with the expression & honesty in her voice.

Spellbinding. Really well written and performed.
The story of a family in Uganda it is so spellbinding. You get such a picture of how it was to live there in the 50s and 60s. It’s told in such a vivid details and presents an emotional feeling of how it was to live there before and after eating them in. Part of goes through how one of the young daughters needed medical help and all the different ways they tried to get help, through witch doctors and regular doctors and priest and shamans. It’s fascinating.
