About the Book
I have attempted to provide a visual chronicle Harun’s life, beginning with his ancestors in Colorado, and culminating with the birth of his grandson, Ranon Magnus Miller, the son of Salamah and Seth Miller. Creating this book has been an unexpected journey, and much richer than I could ever have imagined. I am once again infused with the gifts and lessons from my 22 years with Harun as his wife.
I hope others enjoy seeing the life of one wickedly smart, quiet, devoted and humorous man from childhood, through his first marriage, fatherhood, his second marriage and the building of a hand-made home in his beloved mother mountains of Colorado. It has also been a great gift to have collaborated with Susannah Ortego Magnuson to bring Harun’s story up to date and to create this tribute. In addition, many of the Crestone photos were taken by our youngest daughter, Rachimah.

About the Creator
I was gifted with a "Brownie" camera on my 10th birthday. I’ve been capturing life as I've lived it ever since. As an art history/photography student in the 60's, I began to record the cultural shift swirling around me in CA which created a desire to live life from the inside out. I began to search for a direct experience with the power of God/Creator/Source without any intermediary, and found Subud. After a year of doing the spiritual exercise I accepted an invitation to be the cook for a fledgling Subud intentional community on the banks of the Shenandoah River in Virginia. I arrived with The Joy of Cooking and an army cookbook, naïve, willing to work/play hard, hoping to find my husband and live each day as an act of worship. What I gained was beyond my imagining as I stepped off the train and headed into an experience of community, fueled by a devotion to surrender to God, honoring all religious paths, participating in births and deaths and adjusting to real seasons, without boots!
