Inspired by the poetry of Rumi and Hafiz, Harkin's mystical poems invite the reader to connect with their own spiritual essence. "Chelan Harkin's latest compilation of mystic poetry extracts pearls from the depths of despair, with the fearless fortitude of a world-class free diver. As a seasoned sherpa, she leads readers by the hand and heart through the valley of ego death with occasional paroxysms of 'hooting and hollering.'" -Nipun Mehta, Founder of ServiceSpace
"Wild Grace is Chelan Harkin's most moving collection of poetry yet… These poems are deeply nourishing. It's impossible to read them without feeling something long dormant stir inside you." -Eric Weiner New York Times Best-selling author of The Geography of Bliss
"There's a Vedic saying: 'Thy gifts, my Lord, I surrender to Thee.' Chelan has indeed received a Divine gift. I don't think ordinary human intelligence could express such depth in words.." -Rick Archer, host of podcast Buddha at the Gas Pump: Conversations with "Ordinary" Spiritually Awakening People
In Wild Grace, Chelan Harkin uses ecstatic poetry to redefine our relationship with the divine. She targets a tipping point happening in the souls of many that shifts a conceptual relationship with God into a genuine, direct, and satisfying experience. These are visions of the present, speaking into the future. They are openings of the heart and awe-filled possibilities for a life of honesty and joy.
