She Describes Mystics As Wanderers Traveling From Town To Town Along The Dusty Roads From Safed To Jerusalem Or Along The Winding Valleys Of The Carpathian Mountains, Embodying Their Wisdom And Teaching By The Way They Live. Besserman's Collection Of Stories, Teachings And Sayings Focuses On Such Topics As Nature, Creation, Daily Life, Good And Evil, Female Divinity, Meditation And Ecstasy.
