More than a memoir, this manifesto for authentic non-dual relationship is in essence a contemplation on Love after love. It traces the ambivalent conditioning associated with being raised as a girl in a conventional 1980s Irish- and Italian-Catholic family, the trauma of childhood sexual abuse, her high-achieving disposition at school, the emotional roller coaster of a budding young adult sexuality, a deeply unsatisfactory first marriage, a serendipitous encounter with her spiritual teacher and soon-to-be husband, and her eventual final liberation into Love." --Áine Keenan, Author of The Secret: A Contemplation on the Nature of Identity, Reality and Mystery"Do not lose yourself in this relationship!" rang in her ears as the last words Penelope Love heard from her therapist. A young divorcée, she wanted nothing more than to stop her racing mind, but would not give up the search for true love. She quickly found herself saying "I do" again, only this time to her spiritual teacher. Renouncing antidepressants, corporate life, and a judgmental family within six months, the moonstruck bride went on a pilgrimage to India where it finally hit her: she had left her world behind for the highest form of Love. Such riveting change came with intense lessons about marriage, sexuality, and self-control. What she learned about the discipline of Tantra provoked her to challenge religious and cultural dogmas surrounding authentic love, sex, and metaphysics. This tapestry of prose and poetry invites you on a journey of awakening through the hybrid path of Tantra and Self-inquiry, the investigation "Who am I?" Penelope's intimate essays emerge from her catacombs of conscious exploration to understand the essential purpose of relationship and unravel the mystery of how two become one in the radiant wisdom of the Heart.
