From Bagels to Curry (eBook, ePUB)

Life, Death, Family, and Triumph

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This off beat heartful account takes the reader on a journey of life, death, and freedom through the eyes of a devoted yet independent daughter, showing how an alternative spiritual path can affect families immersed in traditional religion. From his birth in the slums of Chicago to his passing in North Hollywood, Aaron Oscar Zaret (1927-2008)-nicknamed Zeke by his Navy cronies-sings, story-tells, and dances his way through his last days. A subtext woven throughout the book is the author's complicated father-daughter relationship, which for both of them, turned out to be "just what the doctor ordered." From Bagels to Curry (hence from Judaism to yoga) will touch the reader with a singular universal message: that living and dying are chapters of the same divine mystery-love.

Autorenporträt

Lila Devi (lee-lah day-vee) has always had a romance with words and began writing her first novel, songs, and poetry in grade school. She looks for stories waiting to be written or simply enjoyed in the momenta quality modeled by her fatherand views life as a work of fiction with a recurring theme of developing higher consciousness.

With a passable command of the English language, she's now focusing on Italian and prefers to stay mainly in the present tense. Halloween is her favorite holiday when she plays the world's most authentic fake gypsy palm reader, astounding the children who visit her booth with her infallible inaccuracy.

Lila received a Bachelor of Arts degree with honors in English, psychology, and a secondary teaching certificate from the University of Michigan; founded Spirit-in-Nature Essences in 1977, the oldest flower essence company outside England (Spirit-in-Nature.com); authored several books, and has lived at the Ananda communities worldwide. Lila resides within view of the Umbrian sunsets outside Assisi, Italy, and regularly visits California. She loves a good bagel and hasdeveloped a taste for curry.
