Blossoms of Friendship
Vimala Thakar's Blossom of Friendship is an extraordinary roadmap of the mind that will be of interest to anyone who is serious about the practice of meditation. With the precision of a physicist, Thakar reveals the distinct layers of the mind in a refreshingly original, yet accessible, manner. Through these talks, she firmly places herself in the league of iconoclastic spiritual teachers, such as the late Krishnamurti.--Donna Farhi, author of Bringing Yoga to Life and Yoga Mind, Body, and SpiritBlossoms of Friendship captures the timelessness of Vimala Thakar's discourses and presents each one as a savory treat. My favorite is Chapter Five, "The Silence of Meditation," which clearly reminds us of the power, even the necessity, of spiritual practice in today's world.--Judith Lasater, Ph.D., P.T., author of Relax and Renew and Living Your Yoga
