Buddha on the Dance Floor

The story of an Australian woman's remarkable journey to enlightenment and beyond. Few have travelled the path of true enlightenment. Fewer still have written down the story in such depth and detail for the benefit of fellow travellers. And so Isira's story offers rare insight and encouragement, revealing what is possible for each of us, if we choose it.

This is the memoir of an extraordinary life.

Isira was born awake. Unusually, she was not just awake to the world around her; she was also awake to her true nature - the eternal Self of pure love and awareness. As a result her life has been, and is, extraordinary. Through deep mystical encounters and worldly traumas and challenges, Isira has been able to meet each situation in unexpected ways - revealing an example of liberated being.

Isira writes about her challenges and joys: of the childhood pain of being rejected as a misfit; of life as a street kid; of being raped and almost murdered as a teenager; of travelling to Tibet and ordination by HH the Dalai Lama; of marriage and motherhood; of 'terminal' illness healed; of discovering her secret Aboriginal heritage.. Throughout all of this she embodied unconditional love and compassion, revealing a powerful love that transformed and miraculously healed many situations.

Around these life events she weaves the story of her vivid inner journey - of dreams and visions; of karmic threads of other lifetimes and planes of consciousness; of insights and wisdom gained; and, with immeasurable gratitude and humility, of profound personal spiritual experiences - 'awake in the ocean of bliss'. 

People say "meeting Isira changed my life." From a place of unconditional love, compassion and pure awareness Isira acts as a catalyst for our own awakening. Her passion is in sharing from her direct experience how you can awaken to your own wisdom and love, and make a difference in the world. It is hard to convey in words what Isira is and what she does. In essence, she is an awakened living master - she is what people call 'enlightened'. Over the last 30 years she has written countless articles, authored 3 books, been a key speaker at various forums, held regular public events and been the guiding inspiration for many people in their journey of awakening.
