Why read it?
1 author picked Daughter of Fire as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I love biographies of the lives of individuals who go through spiritual transformations.
Daughter of Fire is one of those books. It’s about a British woman who goes to India and meets a Sufi Master. He asks her to keep a diary, which she does for five years. The account of the guru/disciple relationship is deep, touching, and intriguing.
It keeps you turning the pages through the 800+ pages of a soulful experience.
From Weam's list on spiritual ancient teachings.
