Karlik Encounters with Elemental Beings by Ursula Burkhard

Elemental beings such as gnomes and fairies exist in many folk and  spiritual traditions, and Rudolf Steiner also discussed their  significance to our world. Some people are able to engage and even  communicate with elementals.
Ursula Burkhard was one such person.  Blind from birth, she experienced gnomes and other elementals from early  childhood. As she grew older, when her parents tried to dissuade her,  Ursula was puzzled: Why should she believe in the "real" things she was  unable to see and ignore what she knew to be true?
In this  accessible book, she describes her remarkable experiences and in  particular her relationship with a special gnome, Karlik. The book was a  bestseller in Germany in the 1980s, bringing the world of the  elementals into the mainstream.ISBN:       9781782504443
