Elizabeth Susan Dolman tells her life story to the book’s
narrator, recalling that from a very young age she was acutely aware [...]
that “reality was not always clearly definable.” As she grew up and
discovered yoga, she met the spiritual teacher who would become her guru and
whom she would follow from the United States to England. Elizabeth—who
changed her name to Indu, in the yogic tradition—found […] [herself] on a
trajectory to a beautiful but painful love affair with a man named George.
That relationship raised fraught questions about sexual fidelity but also allowed the author
to explore her capacity for introspection and forgiveness. The author [...]
includes a wealth of teachings on how to relate to others and how to
approach the mysteries of the self and the universe. Overall, Dillsaver
compiles a thorough introduction to yogic wisdom and provides a taste of
what a contemporary practitioner might expect on his or her own spiritual
journey. […] The novel’s observations may encourage readers to adopt a
similar sensitivity to overlooked aspects of daily life.
The Standing Stone is a moving exploration of the human psyche's yearning for spiritual understanding. In engaging style, the author authenticates the message that our prosaic existence will be indubitably enlivened and enriched by attuning to a higher dimension. Armand Assante, Actor
Words cannot truly express the state of Ultimate Oneness. Similarly they are humbled when trying to describe the profound and transforming relationship between Guru and disciple. In her book, The Standing Stone, Ms. Dillsaver was able to capture this magical transmission with grace and simplicity which is deeply inspiring.
