Review
"A marvelous job ... an inspirational memoir and a pleasant reminder that there is a spiritual side to our existence."-- Five-star review by Susan Sewell for Readers' FavoriteFive-star review by Susan Sewell for Readers' Favorite Harmony and the Bhagavad-gita, Lessons From A Life-Changing Move To The Wilderness by Visakha is a spiritual anecdote in a narrative form. Being an atheist most of her life, the author discovers jivatma, which translated from Sanskrit means soul. To achieve sacredness, the narrator and her family needed to live in a more pure and natural place. They lived in Los Angeles, California, filled with concrete and chaos. To fulfill their souls' conscious needs, the family moved fifteen hundred miles to the remote location of Sharanagati. There in their beautiful secluded home, they find it easier to connect with jivatma. With bhakti, the service to God and the help of Krishna and the Bhagavad-gita, lessons are internalized in harmony with nature. When the bears ate all but one of the carrots that the author had so diligently cared for, she was able to correlate the premise from yoga, "to abandon all attachment to success or failure." It, therefore, left her free to find the humor in the unforeseen incident and be the recipient of a gift of carrots later on. Her battle with the ants was sorted when those same bears came and cleaned out the ant's nests. Through the many changing seasons, the family finds their desired spiritual harmony. Without the noise and the chaos of the modern world, they see the connection of all things and are content. Harmony and the Bhagavad-gita, Lessons From A Life-Changing Move To The Wilderness by Visakha is a spiritual and devotional narrative. The book is the author's memoirs of her family's move to a secluded countryside. It is integrated with the spiritual lessons that she learns from her experiences. The author relates her experiences to the Bhagavad-gita and other religious teachings included in each of the chapters. The author has done a marvelous job writing this book, and I am grateful that I was able to learn from it. This book is an inspirational memoir and is a pleasant reminder that there is a spiritual side to our existence.

From the Author
I first heard of Bhagavad-gita when I was trekking with my then boyfriend (now husband) John Griesser in the Himalayas way back in the summer of '71. We were at the snow line, 10,000 feet at that time of year, and decided to spend a few restful days in an abandoned cowshed. From deep inside his backpack John pulled out a blue paperback with a line drawing of a regal, four-armed person on the cover.During our stay, I sat for hours surrounded by towering snowy peaks in crystal-clear air, with no other humans around, trying to read this early edition of Bhagavad-gita As It Is, by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. I understood little but I was intrigued. The idea of tolerating dualities and remaining equipoised in their midst enticed me, as did the concept of an eternal spiritual presence within all living beings. And the Gita opened me to the thought that I could improve my character as well as the quality of my life through knowledge.Over the years, as I continued studying the Bhagavad-gita and practicing its precepts, my respect for its wisdom, relevance, and comprehensiveness grew. Gradually the Bhagavad-gita revolutionized my life. Harmony and the Bhagavad-gita explains why.

Harmony and the Bhagavad-gita is a rich, transformational book that invites the reader to see life with new eyes. Visakha's authentic sharing highlights the growth opportunities available in each and every experience and her insights show the potency of spiritual teachings to guide our way and enrich our love for God, self and others. The challenges and joys of relationships, communal- and self-sufficient living--and life ingeneral--are examined through a perspective that allows us to presence our humanity yet challenges us to amplify our spiritual vision, leading to true harmony within and without. Practical and Powerful.
Though I have just started reading this book I am very familiar with it's background and contents. This book gives an insight to a young family's spiritual journey that started around 1971 and inspired them to move from Los Angeles to a Nature's commune in Canada. For those of you you interested in knowing your real self (spiritual self) I would also recommend that you read the Bhagavad Gita referenced in this book. Happy reading.
I loved this little book. From page one to the end I attained peace of mind as I read of the author's search for meaning. From living in the hustle and bustle of urban life in L.A. to her initial struggles, successes and failures in the wilderness of western Canada, the author gives a first-hand account while applying her spiritual master's teachings of simplicity, sustainability and spirituality through Bhagavad-gita as it is.If you always wanted to live the spiritual life but have been putting it off, I highly recommend this book. It will give you hope.
Visakha's Harmony and the Bhagavad-gita is truly inspiring to me to read and re-read. The simplicity and depth of her masterful writing transports me to a magical place on earth, Sharanagati, and to a mystical place within, in search of my own self. The author's honesty and integrity in sharing her insights on the timeless teachings of the Gita set an example for every writer--how to write and uplift others as a service, without pretension and desire for fame. I look forward to her next book.
Very enjoyable read, beautiful setting, well written, uplifting. Loved it.
Really liked it! Visakha is amazing; so intelligent and such great realizations.
At some level we all know that simple spiritual truths has the potential of liberating us from all life's problems, simplifying and enriching our life in the process.Now here is a very nice book, wherein the author Visakha Devi Dasi beautifully interweaves timeless truths from Bhagavad Gita, from many thinkers, philosophers, masters & open heartedly narrates how these eternal wisdom helped her to navigate trying circumstances, events, struggles from her life establishing a beautiful harmony within herself & around her (with her family, community and nature)In this nice absorbing odyssey, from the moment the author steps with her family from her LA Apartment to remote British Colombia community, we will follow her everywhere. Simple yet poignant photos enhance the vivid descriptions of everyday life of the wild. The book is a nice alchemy of a skilled, eloquent writer having in-depth spiritual knowledge & clarity. A nice book for anyone looking to live each day with inner peace, harmony, meaning and balance
I absolutely loved reading this book. It is a transformational text that draws parallels between the author’s life in an idyllic mountain valley, everyday interactions with fellow spiritual and devotional practitioners and the lives of others on a similar path, the challenges and obstacles one might face on such a path, no matter where they are. It offers deep practical realizations and insights into what the spiritual life of a Bhakti yogi means and how each situation can be used as an opportunity to serve the Supreme.I am grateful for Visakha devi’s candor, her humor and her ability to engage the reader in this timeless piece!
