BOOK | Summoned by the Earth

Summoned by the Earth  The most pressing question in these uncertain times may well be, How can we bring healing and protection to the Earth?  It was this very question that Cynthia Jurs carried with her in 1990 as she climbed a path high in the Jimalayas, to meet an "old wise man in a cave" - a venerated lama from Nepal. In response to her question, the old lama gave her a formidable assignment based on an ancient practice from Tibet:  she must procure earth treasure vases made of clay and potent medicines, fill them with prayers and symbolic offerings, and bury them around the world where healing is called for.

Thus begins the journey of a lifetime - sometimes harrowing, but always shining with beauty at the threshold between urgency and the timelessness of the sacred. In Summoned by the Earth we accompany this passionate and creative Buddhist teacher, as she attempts to fulfill the daunting task.

" It is a brilliant book that gives us a road map to true wholeness and recovery" Lama Tsultrim Allione
