The Journey Within: Extraordinary Conversations with Uncommon People presents Professor Kim Hughes' candid interviews with a broad range of individuals at various points on their own spiritual journey through meditation. Dr. Hughes, herself a devotee of meditation and spiritual pursuit, asks the kinds of insightful questions that get to the heart of what we all want to know about meditation as practiced in the ashrams of India and throughout the world: What does it feel like? What has it done for you? What can it do for me? The author has chosen interviewees who can speak clearly and reflectively about their own truths as discovered on "the journey within." This is a book for anyone interested in meditation and spiritual pursuit, whether as a novice or a long-time practitioner.
