By Ursula Reinhart.
Softcover, 358 pages.
Ursula's memoir is the story of a German girl who was born and raised in the challenging conditions of post-war Germany, yet later found her way to a remote Indian village where she met Meher Baba, considered by his lovers to be the Avatar of this age.
She was part of the European Beat generation, partied with some Jazz greats as well as with English rockers. She hitchhiked across Asia, on what later was known as the "Hippie Trail". She lived in a fountain in Mumbai, endured 120 degree heat in Lahore, was penniless in Calcutta and stayed in Saigon during the Vietnam war.
After meeting Meher Baba, she settled in the US. In San Francisco she became a drug counselor and worked as a Private Investigator. She joined a Sufi order for a while. Later she became a key organizer of mental health providers for the California prison system.
Ursula's story is told succinctly and with humor. It's also a memoir of instinctively making inspired choices at critical times, of telling truth to power, and ultimately of finding Grace.
