Giving Birth to God: a Woman's Path to Enlightenment F First edition

Giving Birth to God tells of one woman's journey through yoga ashrams and Sufi training to finding a mystical Christian school with Master Teachers. After 12 years of transformational training, Mother Clare was ordained a Priest, and four years later a Master Teacher. Mother Clare was married, raised four children, and was a practicing midwife and psychotherapist while receiving her mystical and esoteric training. Without being celibate, without going to India and joining a foreign religion, Mother Clare received complete spiritual training, including initiations and ordinations, in the midst of leading the full life of an American woman. Wonderfully moving stories give an in-depth rendering of the Inner Christian Path. Some accounts will induce laughter and some tears, while the stories of women giving birth and the transformations the author experienced as a midwife and mother will move hearts and open minds to the great reality of the spiritual world.
