Journey to the Awakened Heart

The memoir chronicles Robert Jacobs' spiritual journey from materialism in 1970s America to enlightenment through extensive travel and study. Moving from Paris to India, he immerses himself in the teachings of a spiritual master, spending nearly two decades in ashrams. The narrative offers a unique perspective on the challenges and transformations of adopting Eastern spirituality in a Western context. Ultimately, Jacobs reflects on integrating these profound lessons into his life as a husband and father, bridging the gap between monastic discipline and everyday challenges.
