Meet the Guru D as your host, author Janis Harper, reads from Chapter 9 in her visionary novel, Jonas and the Mountain: A Metaphysical Love Story.

Jonas is in the meditation hall, gathered in satsang with the others on retreat at Mt. Arunachala, in South India. Jonas hasn’t met his non-dualist guru D personally yet, and even though he wants nothing more than to begin the student-teacher relationship with him, he struggles with his fears about doing so. In this episode, we see what happens when Jonas meets D for the first time.
