Karma & Diamonds - Moon Child cover

"Eat Pray Love" meets "The Secret". Living Free From the Stories of Your Life. The sages of India, for thousands of years, have talked about the existence of Atman, the inner Self. In the Karma & Diamonds trilogy, Smita is exceptional in showing, through her life's battles, how the inner Self can guide and enrich your daily life. In Book 1, 'Moon Child', while facing possible death, a young Smita has a mystical experience and discovers her inner Self. Later it will help her through other traumatic situations and ultimately, blossom and thrive. Aged ten, she comes with her parents to the UK. Growing into a vibrant adolescent, she is confronted with the heart-wrenching challenge of balancing traditional Indian culture and modern-day London. Amidst rejection, heartbreak, loneliness and the struggle to start a career, determined to make life work, this young woman battles against all odds to find her place in the world, both physically and spiritually. However, will dramatic revelations in Book 2 about her lives long past finally free her to be happy or destroy her? Will a life-threatening condition in Book 3 bring her quest to a premature end?

"Superbly written, deeply emotional and empowering, this trilogy is a delightful gift and powerful testament of wisdom, self-belief, courage, determination and uncommon grace. Smita's vivid and honest account of her troubled and brave childhood in India, adolescence in London and her remarkable journeys through holy sites and ashrams is breathtaking and engrossing... truly inspiring and healing."
