Her curiosity aroused, she decided to build a mountain shrine path on her land near Pecos, New Mexico. The research on various eastern religions to synthesize into shrines made her realize she had barely scratched the surface. This led to enrolling in the Eastern Studies graduate program at St John's College in Santa Fe, New Mexico.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e In 2006, the author was invited to give a lecture at St. John's College for the St. John's College Library \u0026amp; Fine Arts Guild's Speaking Volumes Lecture Series. She was the featured alumni speaker. This book grew out of that lecture. The author discusses the process of writing and how St. John's College influenced the writing of her first book, \u003cem\u003eDivine Rainbow: Nature as Spiritual Teacher\u003c\/em\u003e. She also discusses the story of her spiritual journey as explored in that book, with its underlying philosophy that the separation of humans and nature is a contemporary delusion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Sunstone Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/23\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781632938022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 40\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.14lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.11d","brand":"M.
