Coles The Reluctant Guru Of Alphabet City at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
The Reluctant Guru of Alphanbet City is at one and the same time a coming-of-age story of an American guru and a guide to the discovery of spiritual life without pretension. Aziza would appear to be the least likely girl to develop into a transformative leader, but her obsessional nature drives her toward spiritual understanding. This novel spans forty-two years of the guru's family, her conception as an outcome of adolescent rebellion and rape, her precocious early development, and her obsessive spiritual interest while still a teen. Through no actions on her own part, she unintentionally becomes a spiritual personage in Greenwich Village, and her personal writings are thrust into prominence. Fighting it every step of the way, her path eventually leads her to accept the mantle of being a guru.
Guru Aziza's writings stand on their own as a means to achieving a religion-free spiritual life while living in a culture that embraces narcissism and irreverence. She instructs us toward experiencing ourselves as an integral part of the universe and avoiding a path that hollows out our selves.
