Helena Konttinen

Helena Konttinen was a modest, uneducated peasant woman from Uukuniemi who was unable to write.

She lived an extremely poor life with her husband taking care of his closest relatives.

Konttinen, when falling into a trance, was telling people that what she experienced were divine truths and soon gained authority as a channel of heavenly powers.

Sarlin collected her talks and recollections in the book A Prophet of Our Times which had been published in 1916, the same year of Konttinen death.
