Animal Sutras
Animal Spirit Stories
by Stephen Levine
Monkfish Book Publishing Company
If you enjoy spiritual teachings in the form of stories and poems, if you find yourself drawn to the many nature forms around you, and especially if you’re an animal-lover, Animal Sutras will find a warm place in your heart.
Most of us know Stephen Levine and his wife Ondrea as spiritual teachers who worked with death and dying. They lived in the mountains of New Mexico where Ondrea still lives, a place rooted in nature where many animals of all types roam and live. Stephen passed away in 2016 and left this spiritual memoir to be shared after his death.
At the age of 70, he began collecting animal spirit stories from throughout his life. We experience green snakes, spiders, horses, coyotes, chickens and other animals as Stephen shares what he learned from each.
This is a precious book whether or not you’re familiar with Stephen and his work. Animal Sutras will reach even more deeply into your heart if you are already familiar with his work. The book gives insights into his personality and life that don’t always show up in his other writings and works. Animal Sutras will find a place in the homes of animal lovers and spiritual seekers alike and his stories will be treasured and shared for years to come.
