About this Book

“This book combines great spiritual power with fine poetic beauty and withal is written in so interesting a way that you will find it hard to put down.  Other persons have written about Indian sandpainting, but we venture to say that no other author has been more qualified to write such a book or has reached more deeply into this wonderful spiritual meanings, written in the prayers of great souls, that lie hidden behind this art.”
