Much Silence
Tom and Dorothy Hopkinson
Paperback, $6

The Hopkinsons, a British couple, met Baba in England. Drawn to Him from the start, they came gradually to accept the reality of His Godhood. In 1974 they wrote what has come to be the most highly recommended ‘beginning Baba’ book. It not only gives an overview of His life, drawing from many sources, (previously published biographies), but also, in a highly readable style, explains His teachings. Such weighty subjects as The Drama of the Ego, Sex, Marriage and Love, and the Soul’s Journey Through Creation are handled easily, using terms a person with absolutely no previous spiritual reading could well relate to. Much Silence is a book for everyone’s bookshelf, to be loaned out (or given away) again and again.
