The Guru; The Stripper

Sex and Spirituality are usually separated in people's minds. Ananda Natraj sees things from the perspective of a Tantra Temple Dancer. She worked in upscale topless clubs on the east coast between 1986 and 2000. In the midst of that she was also stridently practicing yoga and meditation, much of that time (between 1988 and 1997) while she lived in Kripalu Yoga Ashram. This memoir describes the seamless spirit in the two realms; the sleeze in 'spiritual' community and the grace in a sleazy world. An exploration of divine manifestation filled with quirky wisdom in lyrical prose.
