Woman Without a Country: Finding Sacred Space (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781524612979)

The reader takes a death-defying journey with a woman whose life is torn apart by two wars, assassinations, and loss of home, family, country, and identity. She is welcomed to safety in another land, but at a high price--years of torturous sexual abuse and suicidal depression, and loss of faith in God and in her adopted home. Just as she gives up, a miraculous cure intervenes--she recovers her identity, the truth of her origins. Transformed, she lives as an enlightened being, but without a home.
This unprecedented pilgrimage--a search for healing and identity--recounted in this book can be considered a search for truth. Why? Because knowing one's True Self is the ultimate healer. The Buddha stated this principle as dhamma, a law of nature. Living in truth is living with full awareness of the miracle of life--all life. This is it.
Mira's journey out of the madness of destruction and serious mental illness demonstrates how creativity, Yoga, meditation devoted to self-inquiry lead to self-knowledge, strengthen intuition, bring one to eternal essence or universal intelligence. Specifically, combined with breathwork, intentional meditation can provide self-healing, manifestation, pain elimination, and guide to self-realization.
