New Lives: 50 Westerners Search for Themselves in Sacred India

Malcolm Tillis

A engrossing study of 50 Westerners living ascetic lives in India.. many have been there for decades and have renounced all ties to the Western world.

Among the individuals we meet are…

• Vijayananda, a devotee of the great saint Anandamayi Ma
• Ani Tenzin Palmo (Diana Perry), who lived and meditated in a cave over 12,000 feet in the mountains
• Swami Jnanananda, who spent years wandering and meditating in the Himalayas in the company of saints and yogis
• Lucia Osborne, wife of author Arthur Osborne, a close follower of the great sage Ramana Maharshi
• Father Bede Griffith, a Benedictine monk who has formulated a synthesis of Christianity and Hinduism

Many of the seekers have left successful material lives behind in exchange for the inner wealth of the spirit.

The book is in interview format and is a must for any one interested in the many diverse paths of the spiritual journey.
