About the Book

Her father died when she was eight, but Patsy never stopped searching for a father-figure. She wanted to be enlightened, to know the truth of life and death by becoming involved in a yoga group. Instead, she was seduced by her guru (a father figure) and told she was responsible for her alcoholic husband (her "child").


While in India she was enlightened about the predatory nature of her guru and tried to stop him from abusing other young susceptible women.


Back home she worked with others to have the guru deported to stop further abuse in that community. She journeyed through recovery from her husband's alcoholism & her own codependency with her husband to eventually achieve a happy and successful marriage.



About the Author :
Patsy Buell grew up in Minnesota and graduated with MA and MS degrees from the University of Minnesota and St. Cloud State University. She met her husband Robert Stierna as an undergraduate at the U of M. She always wanted to be a writer, but didn't achieve her dream until she retired from teaching special education for 36 years. Researching, writing and editing her first book Visions from Two Continents took 10 years. This her second book has been five years in the making. Mary graduated from Moorhead State College in May 1966, in Fine Arts and . was a disciplined teacher, poet and visual artist in many media, including Sumi-e ink brush drawings and woodcut prints. Mary was a fearless explorer. In 1974 she attended Kumbha Mela at Rishikesh in North India with a group of students of Swami Rama. Her religious perspective was pantheistic. She rode an Elephant to live out a fantasy from Kipling's Jungle Book and she quoted the wisdom of Kaa, the python, that anger was the egg of fear. She believed that strong emotion was the enemy of simple civility and self-restraint. She returned from India with ulcerative colitis, which kept her from working the next year. In 1975-1976, both Mary and her husband Peter Wilson taught English at the Terada private school in Fukuoka, on the island of Kyushu, Japan. From 1977 to 1990 Mary taught art and English in Minneapolis schools. Mary died in September 1992, at age 46, in Minneapolis, of ovarian cancer. Her ashes are scattered in the woods at Camp, and on her grandmother's grave in Greenwood Cemetery in Park Rapids

Review :

This is a powerful memoir of a complicated life. It is also a tribute to the resilience of marriage. To say that love endures all things is not enough. This story shows this with clear understandable examples.
