Dorothy Maclean may call herself an "ordinary mystic" but in fact she has had an extraordinary life with an equally extraordinary impact. This outstanding memoir tells the exciting story of her journey from being part of the British secret service during World War II to co-founding the fabled Findhorn Foundation spiritual community in northern Scotland and subsequently becoming a spiritual teacher much in demand around the world for her down-to-earth insights and wisdom. Her work with the inner forces of nature is of seminal importance in our age of global climate change and environmental challenge, offering hope for our future. Told with honesty and modesty, it is the record of one of the most significant and loving spiritual figures of our time.
