Inhaltsangabe

Lalitamba was inspired by a pilgrimage through India. In the winter of 2004, we traveled from city to city in an effort to alleviate the suffering that comes from poverty, illness, and plain loss of hope. In India, the Divine Mother is called Lalitamba. She is looked to as the supporter of the universe. Lalitamba is a collectible journal of modern spiritual literature. This vintage first issue offers writings on emotional healing and spiritual growth. It opens with Samantha Holloway's short story "Melinda Miller's Laugh," the tale of a woman who is relieved of a long depression by the silver light of her own laughter. The compilation also includes an excerpt from Kate Niles' debut novel "The Basket Maker." The piece tells of two children who imagine a Navajo reservation out of the dank basement in which they live. Lalitamba is also bold in its realism. Amira Salaam Amro's short story "November, 1989" tells of an estranged couple who rediscover their love for each other as they come to terms with the fact that their youngest son is dying of AIDS. The collection suggests that we make the most of our life and our loves in each moment. Stephen Kopel's poem "Intruder" jokingly compares his "minor hurts and major sorrows" to a house that needs rearranging. Barry Ballard's poem "The Silent Errand of Anything" describes learning how to forgive.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Swamini Sri Lalitambika Devi currently serves as the Director of the Lalitamba Foundation. She is also the founder of Lotus Heart Meditation, a technique that allows negative thinking and challenging emotions to release quickly and easefully. She believes that liberation from suffering can happen in an instant for anyone who turns inward, to experience the space of the heart. She teaches meditation in hospitals, shelters, prisons, and wherever healing is needed. Sri Lalitambika began her meditation practice as a child. As a young adult, she left her career as a journalist to pursue what she believed to be a deeper truth, that of Self-realization. She studied and traveled for a time in India. Upon returning to America, she was inspired to create a literary compilation that would reflect our deepest potential, that of love without limit. This is Lalitamba.
