A unique collection of interviews with the world's most influential
spiritual teachers. Paula Marvelly has had wonderful conversations with the
leading, as well as the less well-known, spiritual teachers of the world on the
nature of non-duality. They all draw their understanding from the process of
Self Enquiry, a simple and yet direct investigation into the nature of oneself.
The Teachers of One is ultimatly the story of one woman's spiritual journey --- a courageous voyage of self discovery in the search for the ultimate meaning of life.
Review:
"This is a book to read slowly and savor, as each page offers so much to
reflect on -- and even argue with! Impelled by her own spiritual search, Paula
Marvelly interviews the best-known teachers of Advaita and asks the questions
that matter. The resulting conversations are intense and energy-filled.
Marvelly's likeable, questioning personality shines through, a good counterpoint
to the teachers' assurance. She observes them and herself with honesty and
touches of humor. The dialogues are enhanced by Marvelly's striking photographic
portraits of the teachers. I turned to them time and again while reading,
finding they deepened my sense of each teacher's personality. I don't know when
I've read a book that gave me more to think about!"
