Sage Warrior: Wake to Oneness, Practice Pleasure, Choose Courage, Become Victory Audiobook

Quotes

• Valarie Kaur has never been afraid of wrestling with the biggest questions facing humanity—and in this wise and vivid book, she faces unflinchingly our biggest question of all: how do we live within a changing and collapsing world? How do can our minds and bodies and hearts endure an apocalypse? Drawing upon ancient wisdom while also looking deep within herself (and toward the infinite) Kaur pulls courage from the flames of reality, and calls us all toward sovereignty, sacredness, and love. This is the book we need, and Kaur is a sacred wayfinder.
