Healing: My Pilgrimage with Tagore, India's Revered Teacher (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798887750309)

An American clergywoman shares how the poetry and life of India's Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore provide inspiration and hope through numerous grief events common to people from all backgrounds and cultures. Like Tagore, the author suffered the deaths of several close loved ones. Other painful incidents she explores include forgiving herself and others, conflicts in her faith journey, concerns about divisive nationalism, and feeling unworthy and or unrecognized. As she explains, grief doesn't just disappear with time -- it takes intentional choices about one's attitudes, sometimes for years. Healing is a choice as much as it is gift and grace. Tagore's wisdom is as relevant today and throughout the world as it was during his long life from 1861 - 1941.
