In the Lotus of the Heart: The Essence of Relationships

Do you yearn to become a more loving partner? Are you in a relationship you would like to transform? Are you searching for better way to handle conflict? Vedanta teacher Shubhraji was moved to write In the Lotus of the Heart: The Essence of Relationships because, in her words, "people everywhere talk to me about the same relationship issues. Many feel lonely; often they're cut off from loved ones because of seemingly unresolvable conflicts or communication problems, or they suffer in stale, loveless, or even abusive relationships."

Accessible and practical, In the Lotus of the Heart illuminates how to connect more deeply with our beloveds, parents, children, friends, and co-workers and reveals how relationships help neutralize the effects of past conditioning. Using familiar examples, Shubhraji illuminates how our outer conflicts reflect our inner struggles and why resolving these struggles can propel us toward harmonious relations with others. In the Lotus of the Heart reminds us that we start with ourselves, for that is where we find our wholeness, perfection, and innate capacity to love.
