Awakened : Meetings with Indian Saints
By Michael O'CallaghanAWAKENED is a humorous, travel-filled adventure of a female psychologist's pilgrimage to India and of challenges she faces at an ashram. Like a cosmic movie director a strict guru provides horrifying real life lessons in overcoming the senses. The guru displays stunning telepathic abilities and miraculous powers, while uninvited monkeys, insects and filth force her ultimate surrender as he shatters her unrealistic expectations and world of abstractions. "Michael O'Callaghan has written one of the funniest books I have ever read. But she has done more than that. The story of her travels through India in search of enlightenment is unexpectedly moving and profoundly touching. O'Callaghan, a budding bodhisattva divests herself of possessions and passions in her quest for perfection but stubbornly hangs on to her sense of humor
