Now Rereading the Best Spiritual Adventure Book I have ever Read!

        
      Andrew wrote the best Spiritual Adventure Travel book I have ever read - about his travels in Tibet (I think?), before the Chinese took over, when he was a very young man. Now considered a classic among readers interested in Tibetan Buddhism and pilgrimages of the spirit of all kinds, A Journey in Ladakh is Andrew Harvey's spiritual travelogue of his arduous journey to one of the most remote parts of the world--the highest, least populated region in India, cut off by snow for six months each year. Buddhists have meditated in the mountains of Ladakh since three centuries before Christ, and it is there that the purest form of Tibetan Buddhism is still practiced today.

We had a conference call to catch up with Andrew's latest thoughts:
On the call, Andrew brilliantly and heartfully shared what he sees as the next step on our evolutionary journey -- as human and planetary beings -- what he calls the awakening and embodying of the Divine Human, the divinity within each of us.

He made it powerfully clear that accessing the sacred consciousness at our core and literally drawing down more divinity into our lives opens us to heal ourselves and our world.

As we enter this new phase of our spiritual growth, we access more love, compassion and potent life energies to propel us into a life of sacred activism.

It is in the blossoming of divine embodiment that Andrew shows us we can most clearly be guided THROUGH our own pain and the chaos in the world, as well as TO our sacred calling and soul-aligned service to the world. 
 
Ron: I was glad to hear Andrew talk about our "addiction to transcendent technology" - going beyond the body and our "world". He spoke of learning from Matriarchal Shamanic Teachings in the non-patriarchal hierarchal traditions. He added Tantra, which he wrote much of in his JOURNEY IN LADAkh of Tibetan Buddhists style of Tantrism.
