TASTING THE STARS is an extraordinary and timeous collection of poems arising from a devotional place, lived and from within the visionary tradition and philosophy of non-dual Tantra.

Tina Gon alves' poetry glistens with emphatic and elemental inner and outer relationships drawing the reader into its meditative world through a precise and sensuous modulation of sound and space. Technically assured and balanced, her poems are suggestive, necessary and restorative. Treasure each word slowly and be calmed by them.

- David Caddy, Editor of International Literary Journal, Tears in the Fence

These poems are portals to guide you deep inside and beyond.

- Scott Murden, The Human Experience Coach

So beautiful. So vulnerable. So moving. Such a gorgeous journey. The internal, deliberate, and almost still movement seemed to float across from a sensuous, sensitive love to a love that finds its own two feet, and eventually embraces its own cosmic singularity.

- Anuraag Dhoundeyal, Composer & Classical Indian Vocalist

Each poem conjures a pause, a moment of reflection and beauty. I especially love that they serve as meditations in their own right - and engage and invite the reader to be still, to reflect and to breathe.

- Louise Anne Buchler, Director & Playwright
