Satyadasa, Author of The Sound of One Hand, will be talking with Maitrisara on themes from his book, the first memoir published by Windhorse in many years.
Here’s what some order members have said about the book:
‘Satyadasa lays himself bare, revealing struggles, personal and spiritual that will be familiar to many of us, whilst also providing a truthful and inspiring account of a spiritual community as it matures.’ Subhuti
‘I really loved The Sound of One Hand. Satyadasa’s writing is both profound and moving as well as hilariously funny in places. I know this is an extraordinarily difficult balance to strike as a writer, and he does it with great success and skill. Whilst the tale is about the specifics of his life – being born with one hand and his engagement with Buddhism – it is also a beautifully written account of the archetypal human quest for meaning. I recommend it wholeheartedly.’ – Vidyamala
Come along to hear more. Copies of the book will be available to buy on the night.
