This is a workbook essentially -the meditations reveal instrumental understanding, the power to receive and act upon intuitional knowledge. Ideally you should be taught these modes of meditation by a qualified BodyMind Power Meditation teacher, but should you view this book unaware of a teacher, and want to get started -then you can. Follow the guidance given in the book, the practise is inherently safe, but should you begin to experience mental and emotional changes disturbing your sense of well-being, stop the practise and consult a practitioner who is knowledgeable of psychic expression, and/or a reputable counselling person. BodyMind Power Meditation is not a religious practise - neither does it encourage you to be religious, you can be an Atheist, Agnostic, or profess to be Humanist. You can be a psychic practitioner, a complementary or alternative therapist or none of these, perhaps a hard-nosed business person! This practise can benefit all, whatever your way of life.

In this novel the author draws back the curtains on a deeply felt and ongoing tradition. Through the eyes of the main character, Geeta, she goes behind the scenes into a way of life that has long been shrouded in mystery. When Geeta, an educated, outgoing young woman from Bombay, marries into a staunchly traditional family, she suddenly finds herself forced to live in purdah in her husband's ancient home, the haveli. Unable to escape from the conservative customs that now define her life, she struggles to hold on to the modern values she has grown to cherish. Can she discover new meaning and dignity in what at first seems to her a strange and stultifying existence?
