Great Swan—Meetings with Ramakrishnaby Lex Hixon Already acclaimed as a timeless classic, Great Swan introduces to contemporary readers the blissfully unconventional Bengali sage Sri Ramakrishna (1836—1886), who helped lay the foundations for Eastern mystical teachings to come to the West. Hixon’s luminous writing intimately re-creates a series of encounters with this divinely intoxicated master, enabling readers to experience firsthand his power, playfullnes, and spiritual intensity. Blissfully devoted to the Divine Mother, Ramakrishna practiced all religions and taught that all paths spring from the same divine source. These “meetings” are keys to understanding the re-emergence in our time of the divine feminine and the unity of all sacred paths. The late (1995) Lex Hixon held joint citizenship in several sacred worlds—Advaita Vedanta, Islamic Sufism, Vajrayana Buddhism, Eastern Orthodox Christianity, and Soto Zen. He earned a PhD in World Religions from Columbia University and wrote seven books, including Coming Home and Living Buddha Zen. Se också: Coming Home Living Buddha Zen Beställ här |
