Preface

For the coming three weeks, I am returning to writing A Flower for God. “Christmas in July” will be the post for a season of celebrating Christmas, Hanukkah, and the Winter Solstice. On December 30, “A Different New Year” will welcome 2016. To new readers and current followers I once more appreciate and gratefully acknowledge you.


In inner peace, Prema


PREFACE
 A Flower for God, in its earliest stages of writing, was born the third week of September 2003, in Meher Baba’s shrine at Meherabad, Arangaon, India. Following an inner voice to leave and begin writing, an obsession began that lasted five months, until the writing stopped as suddenly as it had started. For two-and-a-half years the pages remained untouched. Then, in September 2006, a second message came. It was time to return to writing. 
These chapters are memories of my spiritual awakening and journey to God that began long before I was aware. What had been undefined and unresolved in childhood erupted in my thirties. At forty-seven, my spiritual nature appeared, to leave me at an abyss at fifty-four. Trusting my spiritual teacher, I made a leap of faith toward real love.
