  The long-awaited reissue of Alice Coltrane’s original spiritual teachings and reflections, which provide powerful insight into her transcendent music, cherished by millions across the globe.  
  ALICE COLTRANE (1937–2007) was a composer, master of various musical instruments, improviser, spiritual leader, and wife of John Coltrane. Throughout her adult life, she worked within and combined a broad range of musical genres, including gospel, R&B, bebop, free jazz, Indian devotional song, and Western art music. She recorded more than twenty full-length albums for Impulse and Warner Bros. Her music speaks to her experiences as a child playing for church congregations in Detroit; the transcendent and mind-bending avant-garde improvisations she performed with her husband John Coltrane; and her religious pilgrimages to India.  
  When Monument Eternal was originally published in 1977, Alice Coltrane was living in Southern California and had recently become a swami, building and nurturing an alternative spiritual community. In these pages, she says that the book is “based upon the soul’s realizations in Absolute Consciousness and its spiritual relationships with the Supreme One.” Monument Eternal offers deep insight into Coltrane’s tremendous musical output and shines a light on her transformation from Alice McLeod, Detroit church organist and bebopper, to sage thought leader Swami Turiyasangitananda. It also reflects the extraordinary fluidity of American religious customs in the mid- and late-twentieth century.  
  Akashic’s long-awaited reissue of Monument Eternal includes a new foreword by Ashley Kahn.

  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY KEVIN COSTNER 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  "Dances with Wolves" is an epic Western film directed by and starring Kevin Costner. Set during the American Civil War, it follows Lieutenant John Dunbar, who, after a heroic act on the battlefield, is sent to a remote military outpost in the western frontier. There, he encounters the Lakota Sioux tribe and begins to form an unexpected bond with them. The film explores themes of cultural conflict, survival, and the impact of colonialism. Through Dunbar's evolving relationships with the Sioux and his growing respect for their way of life, the story delves into issues of identity, honor, and unity. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “Because of the film's overwhelming success and its respectful portrayal of Native Americans, the Sioux Nation honored Kevin Costner by adopting him as an honorary member.” 
    
  “In a memorable scene where the buffalo charges at Smiles a Lot, it is actually charging toward a pile of Oreo cookies, which were the buffalo's favorite treat.” 
    
  “Kevin Costner performed all of his own horseback riding, including riding bareback and shooting his gun without holding the reins, during the buffalo hunt.” 
    
  “Kevin Costner's daughter, Annie Costner, portrayed a young Stands With a Fist in the flashback dream sequence. In one scene, she runs from the Pawnee party that killed her family, looking back over each shoulder. She struggled to distinguish between her right and left sides, as she was only six years old at the time.”
