Daughter of Fire

Read Daughter of Fire Storyline:

LITTLE DID IRINA TWEEDIE know that her trip to India in 1959, at the age of fifty-two, would mysteriously lead her to a Sufi master, and set her upon a journey to the "heart of earts," the Sufi path of realization.
Bhai Sahib's first request of her was to keep a complete diary of her spiritual training, everything, all the difficult parts, even all the doubts. He predicted that one day it would become a book and would benefit people around the world.
This diary spans five years, making up an amazing record of spiritual transformation, the agonies, the resistance, the long and frightening bouts with the purifying fires of Kundalini, the perseverance, the movements towards surrender, the longing, and finally the all-consuming love.
From a psychological viewpoint, the diary maps the process of ego dissolution, gradually unveiling the openness and love that reside beneath the surface of personality.
Mrs. Tweedie is the first Western woman to be trained in this ancient yogic lineage. Her story and experience testify that this teaching system can still be powerfully transformative today in our modern world.
IRINA TWEEDIE was born in Russia in 1907 and educated in Vienna and Paris. Following World War II she married an English naval officer, whose eath in 1954 led her on a spiritual quest. With a background in Theosophy, she traveled to India where she met a Sufi Master. She returned to England after his death in 1966.
