Her journey through ten thousand veils and into the Divine Presence of God took her through many lands and many experiences, from Afghanistan to India to Jerusalem and elsewhere, yet ultimately , it was the inward journey deep into her heart that culminated in awakening experiences and transcendence.

By divine grace and will, she was guided, led, carried and cared for every step of the way, meeting remarkable men and women throughout a fantastic journey into guidance and light.
