Zenvoyage
The first of these books was told out loud over days, on a mountain in the Himalaya, to a small child. They grew up to form a complete storyline empowering children of all ages.
They make one voyage, in order: the major archetypes and the patterns of behaviour laid down early, so a young reader goes on into later life carrying a compass rather than a rule. More than two thousand pages, full colour throughout.
Nothing in them is talked down to. The shadow is not the enemy; the way out is not the way you came in; and a reader is trusted with both.
Shelves in children's fiction and young-adult. Of particular interest to Steiner, Waldorf and Montessori schools, and to school and public libraries building a series that is read in sequence.
Paperback · 5.5 × 8.5 in · full colour throughout · matte laminate · readers 8–15+ · 2,348 pages in all
MYST · MEGHA · MYTH — historical fiction that takes its heroine out of nineteen years in the Sydney CBD and into the Himalaya, carried by the queens who set the record straight before the word feminism existed.
THE SPINE — classical Rāja Yoga and the Yoga Sūtras in plain language. It is carried in rich eloquent visuals of rivers, fences, gardens, animals and weeds. Nothing in it is hard going or dry meta-science — and it is often more humorous than a book on the Sūtras is expected to be.
Matri was born in Palekh, the old Russian village of icon-painters, and raised in Kyrgyzstan from the age of two, on the old Central Asian corridor, and studied the history of civilisations with Central Asia as her field. India received her at twenty‑five — the country that had been lying just over those mountains the whole time. Her grandmother's own collection, some three thousand Russian volumes, travelled with her, and she now writes near the sea, in the Northern Rivers. She teaches Rāja Yoga internationally.
