<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Originally published in 2006 by Himalayan Institute Press under title: Lost masters: sages of ancient Greece.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Ashrams in Europe twenty-five hundred years ago? Greek philosophers studying in India? Meditation classes in ancient Rome? It sounds unbelievable, but it's historically true. Alexander the Great had an Indian guru. Pythagoras, Empedocles, and Plotinus all encouraged their students to meditate. Apollonius, the most famous Western sage of the first century c.e., visited both India and Egypt--and claimed that Egyptian wisdom was rooted in India. <p/>In <i>Lost Masters</i>, award-winning author Linda Johnsen, digging deep into classical sources, uncovers evidence of astonishing similarities between some of the ancient Western world's greatest thinkers and India's yogis, including a belief in karma and reincarnation. Today ancient Greek philosophers are remembered as the founders of Western science and civilization. We've forgotten that for over a thousand years they were revered as sages, masters of spiritual wisdom. <i>Lost Masters</i> is an exploration of our long-lost Western spiritual heritage and the surprising insights it can offer us today.<br><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"As you read this book, you will not only embark on a journey back in time to the very origin of our civilization but you will also find yourself on a journey without distance into the timeless dimension of who you are."<br>-- <b>from the foreword by Eckhart Tolle, author of <i>The Power of Now</i> and <i>A New Earth</i></b><i><br></i><br>"It is a tragedy, and deeply absurd, that we in the West have lost touch with the wisdom of the extraordinary mystics who gave rise to our own civilization. This book is a lively and valuable introduction to that wisdom, and helps open the door again to those mystics and their transformative teachings, which we have been denied access to for so long."<br>-- <b>Peter Kingsley, author of <i>Reality</i> and <i>In the Dark Places of Wisdom</i></b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Linda Johnsen</b> has a master's degree in Eastern studies and has done postgraduate work in the history of religions. She is the author of eight books on spirituality, including <i>Daughters of the Goddess: The Women Saints of India </i>and<i> The Complete Idiot's Guide to Hinduism.</i> <p/><b>Eckhart Tolle</b> is the author of <i>The Power of Now</i> and <i>A New Earth</i>.<br>
