Constructed around a series of late night conversations around a camp fire between Cheryl Simone and Sadhguru Vasudev on an Island in the middle of a Western North Carolina lake near her mountain home, Midnights with the Mystic is the most thorough exposition of the teachings of India's most sought after mystic. Sadhguru challenges us to embrace the possibility that to each of us is available a higher realm of reality, a peak of consciousness; an entrée into the realm of freedom and bliss. Concrete and down-to-earth, Midnights with the Mystic both provides readers with an introduction to profound spiritual teaching and a personal glimpse of a charismatic guru.

About the Author
Cheryl Simone, an Atlanta real estate developer, was the typical baby boomer in search of an authentic spiritual experience. Professionally successful, yet spiritually arid, she discovered a way into what she was looking for in the teachings of Sadhguru.

Format:Paperback
This is a book that you read effortlessly, despite the fact that it addresses some of life's most difficult questions. I was taken by the fact that Richard from Texas (the character that so many of us love from Eat, Pray, Love) wrote the forward and that Richard is a devotee of the mystic, Sadghuru Jaggi Vasudev, who is a co-author. I also found that I could easily identify with the other author Cheryl Simone, her trials and personal struggles, and her search for someone to help her make sense of this life. How fortunate she was to have the attention of her guru for a whole week - I had a chance to meet him at the Washington, D.C. launch of the book last week that I had learned about on the Isha Foundation website. I urge anyone who is a seeker to avail yourself of the opportunity to sit with him and listen to his practical wisdom.

Midnights with the Mystic: A Little Guide to Freedom and Bliss
What a wonderful recounting of her encounters with a truly remarkable man. So many spiritual teachers are so lofty and out of this world that they lose me. Her teacher is so insightful and yet he is also grounded and practical at the same time. This is a book that I feel sure that I will read many times. And thank you to Cheryl for sharing so much of your own journey. It makes the book even richer to hear of your spiritual quest along with the wisdom and insights of your teacher.

Way more than awe-inspiring
They say a book can inspire, but don't look for anything more. But what if it can transform a skeptic's very outlook and perspective on life. That's what it did to me! Read more
