Petra Liermann – författare

The book describes how to use the maze on the floor of Chartres Cathedral as a template for further development in one''s spiritual life. Every labyrinth is a challenge - just like our lives. The Chartres labyrinth is a real gold mine of resources on the way to ourselves. Not only the walk inside, but every petal in the middle of it stands for a teaching that can already be found in the Our Father. If you walk through the labyrinth with all six petals and reach the middle, which stands for the essence and the source of love, you have completed a perfect spiritual exercise. 

At the age of 30, Petra emigrated to Egypt because she saw her destiny neither in Germany nor in the public service. Years before she had met her soul mate there, whom she disdained. Later on she met her future husband Sayed, with whom she led a mostly very harmonious marriage for six years. The happiness became perfect with the birth of their daughter, until Petra found out that her husband had made a mistake that had grave consequences for their lives: Sayed had to marry his "misstep" and a time of suffering, violence and disappointed hopes began. This culminated not only in Petra''s flight from Egypt to save the life of her daughter.The true story shows the often painful path of self-discovery and love for oneself and life.After Petra divorced her husband, his threats continued. Back in Germany, telephone terror and death threats, also against friends and family members, followed - until today.
