Breaking Free

OUT OF PRINT

The remarkably honest and often very funny story of a woman’s journey to spiritual freedom.

Srimala was ordained into the Western Buddhist Order in the mid-1970s while pregnant with her second child. The challenges of combining motherhood with a spiritual path are laid bare here, as is the author's struggle to transform her sexual relationship.

In this powerful piece of writing, Srimala presents her experience as a series of snapshots, showing how so-called mundane events can help us to realize the true significance of our lives. Sometimes deceptively gentle, she pulls no punches.

This book will make you smile. It may also make you feel uncomfortable. Yet many women and men will identify with the everyday struggles and joys described here - and learn much from them.
