 She is considered an "ambassador for peace" by international leaders of opinion. Her conferences and seminars are increasingly sought after throughout the world. Isha imposes no political opinions, dogmas or intellectual concepts, yet she is viewed as a modern day visionary, receiving invitations to speak in international forums, high security prisons, with senators, ex guerilla soldiers, bishops and jet setters. What is it about her message that reaches beyond all differences, moving so many irrespective of their nationality, age or creed?
Isha talks about consciousness. She says that it is our essence, who we truly are. She says that consciousness is love: a love that is unconditional, different from all the kinds of "love" we are accustomed to, and that this love is within ourselves.
"There is nothing more fulfilling than unconditional love of self, and when we experience it, we can extend that love to every aspect of creation. When we love ourselves unconditionally, all fear disappears, and we experience union with everything. This isn't a subtle experience; it's absolute. It is the greatest thing that can happen to any human."
Upon meeting Isha in person, it becomes evident as to why she touches people so profoundly. The impact of her presence is beyond words, the depth of her gaze, the low warmth of her voice, reaching out and touching your heart. She breaks with all the paradigms of what a spiritual leader is supposed to be like, yet a simplicity, a familiarity that combine with her elegance and poise captivate the observer.
Born in Australia, where she lived a wide spectrum of human experiences that shook her structures from the very beginning, Isha was motivated to push the boundaries of life to the limit. After learning of her adoption at a very early age, she found solace in the company of animals. Her great love for horses would eventually lead her to a fulfilling career as a racehorse breaker and trainer. After great personal losses, she developed another facet, as a singer-songwriter of soft rock. But her inner journey was motivated by something greater than external success: by the yearning to break free from the fears that still held her prisoner.
