This book was written to explain my journey. I just wasn't anticipating a soul search to Hyderabad, India. I had to accept the sensitive, intuitive, gentle, yet strong individual that I am. I realized that I'm an "Indigo" This took time for me to acknowledge . . . As much as I craved the attention for love and sought it out, I often thought I was not deserving of it once I found true love. My honest and earnest quest for knowledge, hope, faith, and love took me searching first on Facebook, YouTube, and then Google, my career, and family. This book is my own humble esoteric training done with trust in God. While I was lost and searching, I found it all and more and even true love in the most surprising place-India. And it all started behind my computer and cell phone.
This book is about a humble soul search, and finding one's purpose in life. This book was written to address a discussion about, kundalini, and the human and soul relationships, with men and women. I'm talking about soulmate a relationship, with someone oceans away that feels like a magnet. We just had to meet...! Call it destiny, if you want. It was written with a bit of humor, and from my own experience. No one has a story like this, about meeting a twin flame soulmate.
The book is so simply revealed from childhood to adulthood, and the choices one has to make, like who should pull the pug in divorce, and why. I needed to address my own mistakes, and learn from them. Be honest with what I could not change, and have the courage to change what I needed to.
I found on my journey that I was an Indigo-Crystal, this is a nice way of saying Autistic, Asperger's or ADD. I discovered this in Vedic Astrology, and then Western Astrology. In Vedic Astrology it depends on where your Mars is in your chart. In Western Astrology, it is where your Saturn, Uranus, or Pluto is.
My good friend Theja, who is from India in my book, wanted to know about American culture. So I began to write about my childhood to the present day. He is my Indian guide in this book, whom I believe I met once before when I was a child. There is also a twist of fate, and I wont soil that for you. So, enjoy reading this one, because you won't be able to put it down once you start reading it! It is a truly unique story.
Nancy Jo Van Hook’s Intimate Journey to Self is simply told from the heart of a sensitive soul. While the story’s idiomatic narrative seems direct and simple, the reader soon finds that beneath her still waters lie great complexity, depth and understanding. The life experience, learning and research that have gone into it are distilled into a crystal clear vision of a journey toward knowledge and self-fulfillment. It is worth the time to read and absorb--a very promising first book. --Peter H. Green, Author of Radio: One Woman's Family in War and Pieces
