In the Hindu tradition, when a child is ready to leave home and begin their spiritual journey, a coming-of-age ceremony is performed. During the ritual known as the Upanayana, or The Sacred Thread, the child is given a chord composed of three strands, woven together and secured by a single knot. For the rest of their lives, Brahmans will wear this thread, draping it over their shoulder as a physical representation of their umbilical connection to parents, God, and the world. No matter how far on... In the Hindu tradition, when a child is ready to leave home and begin their spiritual journey, a coming-of-age ceremony is performed.

For the rest of their lives, Brahmans will wear this thread, draping it over their shoulder as a physical representation of their umbilical connection to parents, God, and the world. No matter how far one travels from his or her origins, an undeniable connection remains. Also known as the Second Birth, the Sacred Thread Ceremony is a celebration and an affirmation of the ties that anchor, guide and connect us throughout our lives, dating back to Creation, and extending to Eternity. After three heartbreaking losses, Adrienne Arieff thought her dreams of becoming a parent were all but impossible. She and her husband soon discovered that parenthood possible, but it would require faith, persistence, and a gift from a perfect stranger. Adrienne traveled to the remote rural pocket of India, near the Pakistani border, where the Akansksha clinic is located to meet with Dr. Nayna Patel, an expert in surrogacy. There, she met her surrogate, Vaina, who courageously agreed to carry Adrienne's child. After a course of IVF treatments in India, Adrienne's role was done, but in no way was it over. Unlike other genetic moms, Adrienne could not return home to San Francisco and simply wait. Adrienne couldn't bear to have this pregnancy progress without her, and she wanted to feel a connection both to her growing child and to Vaina, the woman who was offering this remarkable gift. Adrienne decided to stay in Anand, to be Vaina's partner through this pregnancy. This choice brought its own heartaches and revelations, chief among them, how do you develop a relationship when you don't share a language or culture? Somehow, these two mothers with a shared goal, found that within weeks, they could say any and everything with just one look, one squeeze of the hand, one smile. Their story is surprising, touching, and illustrates the power of the human spirit.Taal: Engels;Afmetingen: 24x210x140 mm;Gewicht: 358,00 gram;Verschijningsdatum: maart 2012;ISBN10: 0307716686;ISBN13: 9780307716682; Engelstalig | Hardcover | 2012.
