Buddha on the Dance Floor

The story of an Australian woman's remarkable journey to enlightenment and beyond. This is the memoir of an extraordinary, ordinary life. Isira writes about a little girl born into an ordinary family in South Australia, already experiencing higher states of consciousness and feeling confused by her unfamiliar surroundings. "Where did I really come from?" she asks. Experiences of spontaneous meditation and yoga as a toddler gave rise to a life as a mystical adventurer with only one goal: to know the Truth. Isira writes about her challenges and joys - of the childhood pain of being rejected as a misfit; of life as a street kid; of travelling to Tibet and ordination by HH the Dalai Lama; of marriage and motherhood; of 'terminal' illness healed; of discovering her secret Aboriginal heritage. Around these events she weaves the story of her vivid inner journey. Few have travelled the path of true enlightenment. Fewer still have written down the story in such depth and detail for the benefit of fellow travellers. And so Buddha on the Dance Floor offers rare insight and encouragement, revealing what is possible for each of us if we but choose it.
