This biography of Shri Dhyanyogi, the kind of Indian saint who only exists in legend, provides tales of his exploits--at 100 years old he could walk faster than any of his followers--that are intertwined with his spiritual teachings. After 80 years of solitude in rural India, Dhyanyogi came out from seclusion to teach in India and the United States. Tales of the gentle yogi facing down tigers, battling hunger and thirst, and traveling through the treacherous mountains and scorching deserts of India are all told here. In his unending desire to be a resource to followers, Dhyanyogi is known to have said to his followers, "This house is on fire--loot all you can!"--referring to the wisdom he had and how little time he had on earth to impart it.

In the early 1960’s Thea Ishwari Ivie traveled to India to be with realized souls because of a deep longing to know God. Thea has met, trained under, and served many great, realized masters including Swami Ramdas, Ananda Moyi Ma, Swami Muktananda, Dhyanyogi, Sri Karunamayi, Swami Vishwananda, and Mohanji. In Thea Ivie’s autobiography, Transcending Illusion: Theodora’s Journey Through Time, she describes her incredible story of her path to enlightenment and the struggles and triumphs along the way. Thea is extremely candid about her journey and outlines a path for all to follow. “One must want realization above all else,” she says, "and to know their true state of Oneness, which is always there.” Clairvoyant since childhood, Thea Ivie has helped thousands of people through her healing practice, releasing trauma, blockages and more through deep faith and prayer to the individual’s own masters, guides and angels. Thea claims no doer-ship in the healing process, but only acts as a vehicle for God's divine grace, love and mercy.
In the Western world interest in many forms of spiritual practice is widespread and growing. Tantra, the Indian cult of self-knowledge and liberated joy, is one of the best known. At the centre of its philosophy is the principle of awakening the viatl energy (Kundalini) that lies latent in each of us in order to channel it into spirital growth. Envisualized as a coiled serpent, the energy must be aroused through meditation. It then rises up through the energy centre (chakras) to unite with pure consciousness at the crown of the head.
