Produktbeschreibung
Black Hole with a Heart of Gold is a metaphor that operates on several levels: Burma is a country that has been hermetically sealed to the outside world for many decades, as if it were a black hole on the map. But despite the many years of political and economic turmoil, the Burmese people seem to have found the antidote to the suffering caused by fear, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem, in other words, the Black Hole of the human condition. Black Hole with a Heart of Gold will take you on a magic carpet through the mystical, enigmatic, and vibrant land of Myanmar, and you will encounter along the way magnificent pagodas, lakes, river, legends, the largest book in the world, and caves filled with golden Buddhas. You will meet a spirit medium called a Nat Kadaw, and also will discover one of the major players in the world's heroin traffic; and how a general used a widespread belief in astrology to deceive his citizens and bankrupt the entire nation overnight; and all of these wonders will be revealed to you through a series of delightful personalities who radiate their Hearts of Gold.

Autorenporträt
Two people with different cultural backgrounds and ethnicities met at a European and Balkan music and dance ensemble named Koroyar, and their lives became intertwined, combining their gifts to continue exploring life as an avenue of creative expression. Robert Collins has a bachelor of arts in anthropology and has been an educator in the Los Angeles area for thirty years. He studied writing with Joan Oppenheimer in San Diego, with Cork Millner privately, and also in the Santa Barbara Writers Conferences. Elizabeth Herrera-Sabido was an educator for twenty-six years and a teacher of international dance for the Los Angeles Unified School District. She has also studied Traditional Chinese Medicine and is a Reiki master teacher. Attracted by the unknown, the forces of the universe, and the human psyche, during their lives they have studied several different philosophies. Elizabeth has been involved with various religions, Asian studies, and Gnosticism with Samael Aun Weor; and Robert has explored spiritual healing practices in Mexico and studied with Carlos Castaneda's Cleargreen and Tensegrity. Elizabeth and Robert start their day at four-thirty in the morning. They enjoy playing volleyball and tennis, and in the afternoons play music, alternating between seven different instruments each. Their philosophy of personal evolution has led them to explore over 110 countries between the two of them such as Japan, Nepal, Egypt, Bosnia-Herzegovina, the Philippines, Turkey, Russia, etc.
