Ross Heaven, who I met at the UK shamanic practitioners conference
recently, tells me that his new book has just been published:
"The Way of the Lover: Rumi and the Spiritual Art of Love"
http://www.Amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0738711179/sunflowerheal-21
The book celebrates the 800th anniversary of the great mystic and love poet,
Rumi and contains Sufi teachings and techniques for spiritual development
combined with Native American "medicine wheel" teachings on "The Path of The
Heart".

Synopsis of "The Way of the Lover"
----------------------------------
The revered words of Jalaluddin Rumi - the greatest love poet of all
time - have endured for centuries. His moving verses highlight the
Sufi path of love and achieving the state of grace necessary to
become one with the Beloved, the Divine ...God. Drawing on Rumi's
writings, Sufi teachings and shamanic techniques, Ross Heaven invites
us on a life-changing quest for purity of body, mind, emotions and
spirit. This voyage though every stage of the soul is aided by the
Medicine Wheel, a spiritual compass used by shamans. Use this
powerful tool to uncover fear, resist self-defeating impulses,
recover from depression or "soul fatigue", revitalize relationships,
and connect with your divine self.Heaven also offers shamanic and
Sufi practices to help you progress toward balance, clarity, peace
and true love. Ross Heaven is the founder and director of the Four
Gates Foundation, one of Europe's leading organizations that offers
courses and workshops in spiritual wisdom and Freedom Psychology. An
award-winning author, he and his work have been featured in national
newspapers and on radio and television.
