Produktbeschreibung
From Bagels to CurryA Jewish Yogi's Account of the Passing of a Parent From religion to spirituality: What are they, nuts? "I'm dying and she's buying me towels?" Cancer-schmancer, who does God think He is, anyway! In this offbeat heartful account, Aaron Oscar Zaret (192 7-2008) sings, story-tells, and dances his way through life. A subtext woven throughout the book is the author's complicated father-daughter relationship which for them both, turned out to be "just what the doctor ordered." Their conflicts gave her the strength to journey from Judaism to a yogic community called Ananda-and to care for him in his last days. From Bagels to Curry will touch the reader with a singular message: that both living and dying are chapters of the same divine mystery-love.
Autorenporträt
Lila Devi has always had a romance with words and began writing her first novel, songs, and poetry in grade school. She looks for stories wait-ing to be written or simply en-joyed in the moment-a quality modeled by her father-and views life as a work of fiction with a recurring theme of developing higher consciousness. With a passable command of the English language, she's now focus-ing on Italian and prefers to stay mainly in the present tense. Halloween is her favorite holiday when she plays "the world's most authentic fake gypsy palm reader," astounding the children who visit her booth with her infallible inaccuracy.Lila received a Bachelor of Arts degree with honors in English, psychology, and a secondary teaching certificate from the University of Michigan; founded Spirit-in-Nature Essences in 1977, the oldest flower essence company outside England (Spirit-in-Nature.com); authored several books, and has lived at the Ananda communities worldwide forever. Lila resides within view of the Umbrian sunsets outside Assisi, Italy, and regularly visits California. She loves a good bagel and has developed a taste for curry.
