Truth Seeker is the long-awaited follow-up to the spiritual travel adventure, The Adventures of Bindi Girl: Diving Deep Into the Heart of India (2012). PRAISE FOR TRUTH SEEKER "Erin Reese's excellent new book is a deep dive into the heart, dedication, and courage required while on the spiritual awakening journey. This book isn't merely about truth seeking; it's about truth finding. The book is far more than a journey into the spiritual cornucopia of India; it's an inspirational nudge into the deepest depths of your own heart. Do you have the courage? The dedication? I highly recommend this book to both glistening spiritual newbies and jaded old-timers. After reading I was left in a beautiful, resonant, heartfelt state. This alone is worth the price of admission." -J. Stewart Dixon, author of Spirituality for Badasses: How to Find Inner Peace and Happiness Without Losing Your Cool "So often overlooked on today's spiritual path is the mystical bond with a guru to support the journey to self-realization. Ramesh Balsekar was a laser beam of integrity and a fountain of peace. This book shows the transformative blessing of meeting such a master on one who is passionate and sincere. One that has the power to surrender." - Prajnaparamita, spiritual master, author of Wings of Freedom "If you read a lot of "spiritual" books, as I do, you can be filled to the brim with theory. Truth Seeker is what happens in one woman's life when the theories become fact in the day-to-day. There's romance - human-to-human and human-to-India - and courage and humor and an incredible degree of acceptance of life as it comes and where it is. And that might be the essence of those spiritual books, after all."-Victoria Moran, author of The Good Karma Diet, cofounder of The Compassion Consortium "With razor-sharp wit and breathtaking pace, Truth Seeker immerses readers in the India few travelers see-the authentic India in all its beauty and abomination. Equal parts love story, spiritual quest, and travelogue, Truth Seeker, ultimately, is an homage to India itself and the extraordinary teacher Erin Reese found-and lost-there. This book is exactly what many of us need right now-spiritual sustenance, a glimpse of the majestic potential of humans, and a good, hard laugh." -Lynn Braz, author of Flying Free: Life Lessons Learned on the Flying Trapeze "Erin Reese's Truth Seeker is a true gem! It relates both her journey through the land of India and her spiritual search culminating in spiritual awakening. As I read this beautifully written account, I could feel the heat, hear the sounds, and smell the scents of her Mother India. I could feel her emotions as she struggled along the way. I felt her devotion for her beloved guru. Her description of spiritual awakening is honest, clear, and genuine. To paraphrase Christ's words about his disciple Nathanael, "Here is a woman in whom there is no guile." -Marshall Davis, author of Experiencing God Directly: The Way of Christian Nonduality

In 1912 he helped establish the first Latter-day Saint seminary at Granite High School. As Church commissioner of education, he helped establish the institutes of religion, with a mission to allow college students to reconcile the secular truths learned in university settings with the truths of the gospel. He created the Religion Department at Brigham Young University and encouraged young scholars to produce professional studies of the Latter-day Saint religion. In 1933 Merrill was called as an Apostle, where he continued his work to modernize the Church. In the final years of his life, Merrill continued to work to show that science and religion could be reconciled.
