Against a Peacock Sky

The story of a chapter in the life of a person who is open to her whole environment. Without pre-conceptions to project at the local Nepalese villagers, where she lived during this story, she was welcomed by a community. She was drawn into the heart of their households to stir interesting foods around the fire. The ceremonies are described with clear articulation and a both academic and spiritual understanding. For Monica Connell flew to Nepal an anthropologist and returned years later, a phyilosopher.This book was republished in German in summer, 2001.
