Brother Sun: Guided by Grace: Memoirs of a Western Yogi

• Embark on a journey unlike any other-a journey of self-discovery, spiritual growth, and the search for true freedom. Born in the Netherlands, Pieter Elsen, also known as Brother Sun, begins his story with a childhood steeped in curiosity and wonder, guided by enlightened parents who planted the seeds of a life filled with purpose.
• From vivid memories of past lives in his early teens to encounters with IndianSwamis who introduced him to the profound philosophy of Vedanta, each step brought him closer to his spiritual awakening. At just 23, Pieter took a leap of faith, leaving behind a promising career in industrial design to join an ashram in France, where he studied under the revered Swami Ritajananda. His path eventually led him to India, where he lived as a monk for over a decade, immersing himself in the wisdom of ancient traditions. Join him as he shares captivating stories of mystics, miracles, and the profound mysteries that shaped his spiritual path.
• When Pieter met his eternal soulmate, Jenna-his "Sister Moon"-he began a new chapter, integrating the lessons of his monastic life with the joys and challenges of the modern world. Together, they founded the Path of Light Center in Virginia, creating a sanctuary for spiritual seekers and offering transformative retreats in past-life and life-between-lives regression.

In this deeply personal memoir, Pieter shares the extraordinary twists and turns of his journey: his early years of spiritual exploration, the rigorous discipline of monastic life, the challenges of leaving it behind, and the joy of building a life of purpose and love. With humility, insight, and a touch of humor, Pieter reveals how each phase of life-whether sweet or challenging-adds a layer to the rich, multi-faceted "cake" of our existence.

This book is more than a memoir; it's an invitation. An invitation to reflect on your own layers, embrace the beauty of life's complexity, and find the deeper freedom that lies within. Whether you're a seasoned spiritual seeker or just beginning your own path, Brother Sun: Guided by Grace offers inspiration, wisdom, and a roadmap to discovering the light within yourself.
