Women in Love with the Divine

“What a feast of feminine spirit! In this luminous collection of conversations and reflections, Erica Bassani distills the essence of women’s wisdom across spiritual traditions and feeds us all—women, men, soul-seekers of all genders and every faith. I love that Erica’s quest to find these hidden masters began with a transformative crisis and led to whole-making. This is the way of the sacred feminine, from mystery to embodiment, through beauty into truth.”
—Mirabai Starr, author of Wild Mercy and Ordinary Mysticism

“Like so many spiritual seekers, Erica Bassani wondered where all the female teachers were. Speaking with deeply practiced tantrikas, yoginis, rabbis, scholars, and mystics around the world, she has created a compendium that will be useful for anyone seeking to hear the feminine principle elucidated with clarity and intimacy.”
—Susan Piver, author of The Wisdom of a Broken Heart and Inexplicable Joy: On the Heart Sutra

“Women in Love with the Divine is a treasure for our time, a living testament to the power of the sacred feminine. With grace and vulnerability, Erica Bassani invites us to join her on a transformative pilgrimage into the heart of the goddess. Guided by the wisdom of deeply practiced humans who have devoted their lives to the path, this powerful collection of voices inspires the birth of our own unique sense of love, embodiment, and divinity within.”
—Willa Blythe Baker, author of The Wakeful Body and guiding teacher of Natural Dharma Fellowship

Erica Bassani is a writer based in Italy. A graduate of the Academy of Storytelling in Turin, she spent a year living in a Theravadan Buddhist monastery at the age of 23. Since then, she has turned to female spiritual teachers from diverse traditions to help her navigate her inner journey. She created the Women Awakening Project—an initiative that highlights the wisdom of female spiritual role models and explores spiritual practice through the lens of women’s experiences—to share their wisdom and create a bridge between generations of seekers. Bassani is author of Donne che Esplorano il Divino, coauthor (with Massimo Bonomelli) of Va Bene Così, and the Italian translator of The Four Noble Truths of Love by Susan Piver.
