Description

On Wings of the Swan The present book, ‘On the Wings of the Swan’, introduces the reader to the amazing power of meditations in bringing about healing, empowerment, and spiritual growth. On the wings of the swan, the proverbial Indian bird of wisdom and discernment, we are lead to the eternal mountains of God. It is from these heights of God we begin our journey as a river of life flowing into the depths of the eternal oceans of God. In our life journey we encounter many obstacles, light and shadows, to be faced with the deepest awareness. From the awareness of these obstacles a way is found through meditations to go beyond the light and shadows to the pure realm of enlightenment. It is here that we are engulfed in the ocean of love and compassion for all beings. The meditations set forth in this book are meant to take us to the other shore of reality where one attains peace and joy to be shared with all creation.
