Spirit @ Rest is a beautiful memoir about a journey of spiritual discovery. 
This book is about a search for meaning, truth, and happiness. Leela was born into a traditional Christian family and educated as a lawyer. She seemingly had it all. In her thirties, she underwent an existential crisis when she realised that although she enjoyed outward success, there was an inner emptiness that nothing could fill.
 
Disillusioned with the church and with her career, Leela renounced the secular world and embarked on a spiritual journey of discovery, accompanied by her husband, Maurice, who accurately predicted, “Things will never be the same again.” 
 
Her quest led them to many exotic destinations in India, Asia, Europe, and Central America as she explored different religions in her pursuit of truth and enlightenment. Her journey was like following a golden string that took her on mysterious and adventurous roads and led her to a destination she could not have predicted.
