Leah: A Story of Meditation and Healing

by Stuart Perrin

“Based on a true story, ‘LEAH…’ is one of the most important books written about the depth and transformational power of Rudi’s (Swami Rudrananda’s) meditation practice.” When Dina is told by an oncologist that her thirteen-year old daughter’s tumor was inoperable and chemotherapy wouldn’t work, when she was told that Leah had about three weeks to live, Dina contacts David, a meditation master. This exquisitely written book tells the poignant story of the healing work David undertook to shrink the tumor. It takes the reader on a voyage from a state of medical hopelessness to a surgeon who steps out of an operating room with a smile on his face and tells “It’s a miracle. We got the whole thing. The tumor formed a sac around itself and was shrinking inside her.” As Richard Gere wrote in his forward to the “With an open heart and deep insight, Stuart Perrin explores the true nature of health and disease. In Leah, cancer is a disorder of the spirit whose roots can finally be cut by a fundamental change in one’s spiritual life. An important story of purity, loss and understanding…” And further praise from the actor Alan “An immediate and very easy to understand account of the healing process as it works within the healer. If this book falls into the right hands at the right time, it could save lives.”

This beautiful book will change lives and give hope and healing to those of us suffering from illness and disease as well as isolation, loneliness, and despair. The true nature of spiritual healing is vibrantly portrayed by Stuart Perrin and joyfully shared with the reader. An absolutely magnificent book!

I couldn't put it down. I think my strong response was partly because of surviving cervical cancer, but mostly because I have studied meditation with Stuart and have experienced the efficacy of the inner work he teaches. Forever grateful!
