 | The Descent into Darkness Aug 4, 2009 |
Maya, brilliant, and successful in her academic pursuits became enmeshed in a search for enlightenment that led her to the very edge of darkness. A casual meeting with Cha Ma, a Hindu guru, changed the direction of her life. "Chasing the Avatar" is a fictionalized account of Jovan Jones personal descent into an ominous evil.
Maya put her doctoral program on hold, gave up her Boston apartment, deserted her faith, and left her family behind to seek truth and to study Hinduism. Her pursuit led her to South India to the ashram of Cha Ma. Here she hoped to find truth and to move to the level of enlightenment.
Jones uses detailed descriptions of angelic beings embattled in spiritual warfare to powerfully illustrate the impact of prayer in changing the outcome of the battle from satanic destruction to spiritual victory.
The glossary included at the end of the book helps the reader understand recurring vocabulary unique to the setting of this novel and to followers of Hinduism.
Jovan Jones writes with intensity. Her work is informative, disturbing, and spiritually sensitive. I am look forward to the sequel.

| A good novel about how God can deliver us and set us free from all difficulties of life. This women was deep in another religion and God let the truth set her free. | | |  | MUST READ! Jun 19, 2009 |
I Just read "Chasing the Avatar" by Jovan Jones This book just came out. Don't let the Christian stuff bother you. It is nessisary for her true story. I have my own story. You have yours. I have lived in Amritapuri, India and traveled with Ammachi. This book is A MUST READ for anyone who has been a devotee or thinking about becoming one. "Chasing the Avatar" will be shocking for those seeking enlightenment with the help of an Avatar. This is the book YOUR GURU WILL NOT WANT YOU TO READ Nor will the greedy elements of guru empires. Though she has changed the names in the story. those who have been to an ashram in India will understand with profound recognition those who haven't will be saved alot of suffering. This is an important book to read if you have a guru or not.
