Maha Brown is the author of The Esoteric Path of Marriage, which she wrote with her husband, David Pan Brown. Having experienced a divine vision in the American desert, Maha quit her job in London for a pilgrimage to India. Following some months of meditation, she had an encounter with the formless aspect of the Divine Mother as her heart leapt into spacious communion with that Eternal Presence, sparking the beginning of an intense, devotional awakening. It was in India where Maha met David in the ashram of Mata Amritanandamayi Devi, which translates as Mother of Immortal Bliss, known to the World as Amma, 'the hugging saint'. Maha often finds herself surrendering to divine raptures, accompanied with blissful tears. Also known as Lakshmi, she is a compassionate healer. Through holding the space of Unconditional Love she has reconnected many to their Spirit and has even helped relieve the suffering of people afflicted with back problems, depression, chronic fatigue etc. Many have reported having divine visions in these sessions.
