Book Description
The answer elusive like sparks from the fire, The question of what goals to aspire. What lies in the depths of your heart Is what sets the great men apart— The noble quest to raise the bar, To guide humankind to a brighter star. Ian Stott leans on rhymes and his heart to speak to people from all walks of life while reminding us that there is inspiration to be found within the peace of daily observation and creative expression. In a second volume of poetry that includes photographs, Stott shares verse that evolves from the emotional release of his debut poetry collection, Souvenirs of the Soul. Within diverse poems, Stott lyrically explores the game of life, the magic of giving, broken glass on a beach, the depths of despair, the angel of deception, skating on ice blocks, breadcrumbs and beaches, and kindred spirits. Connections: Cosmic and Otherwise, Volume II is a collection of poems that offers more powerful messages that paint a vivid picture of life, its lessons, and its gifts.

Book Description
This treatise will reveal subtle secrets regarding subtle-elements, which pertain to breathing system (Praanaayaama), human speech (Mantras) and the external environment (Vaastu-Science). The subtle-elements comprise subtle phenomena and the related spiritual, cosmic, semi-cosmic and semi-gross objects, processes and systems. Therefore, this spiritual knowledge will ensure healthy ecology; high spiritual elevation and high quality of life on the earth (i.e. sound health, prosperity and happiness). It may also commence a spiritual movement globally, which will effectively prevent global warming. The Indian cosmic philosophy, which pertains to internal and external environments, is termed as Darshana-Shaastra. This term reveals a secret regarding the Rishis of the Vedic era that they used to envision subtle phenomena through their cosmic powers. Subsequently, they developed applicable rules regarding Praanaayaama, Sanskrit grammar, Mantras and Vaastu-Science. However, the spiritual-knowledge regarding the subtle elements was lost along with them. The author has ‘rediscovered the lost divine-knowledge’ through his cosmic powers and the clarifications from his spiritual guides. They are astral beings now, because they were renowned Rishis of the Vedic era. One of them assumed ‘human-form’ to bless him with cosmic powers. This book is based on the extrasensory perceptions of the author. Volume-II: Cosmic and sub-cosmic dances of Vibhootis, the pairs of opposites, which procreate subtle and atomic particles; fundamental principles regarding subtle elements and external cosmic energy system; cosmic image of Vaastu-Purusha and flow-patterns of subtle energies in dwellings, the basis of Vaastu-Science; illustrative layouts of dwellings, including group-housing, commercial and industrial complexes; etc.

Book Description
National Bestseller "Beautifully written and delightfully strange...as earthy as it is sublime...in the truest sense, an eye-opener." --Daily News From Annie Dillard, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Pilgrim at Tinker Creek and one of the most compelling writers of our time, comes For the Time Being, her most profound narrative to date. With her keen eye, penchant for paradox, and yearning for truth, Dillard renews our ability to discover wonder in life's smallest--and often darkest--corners. Why do we exist? Where did we come from? How can one person matter? Dillard searches for answers in a powerful array of images: pictures of bird-headed dwarfs in the standard reference of human birth defects; ten thousand terra-cotta figures fashioned for a Chinese emperor in place of the human court that might have followed him into death; the paleontologist and theologian Teilhard de Chardin crossing the Gobi Desert; the dizzying variety of clouds. Vivid, eloquent, haunting, For the Time Being evokes no less than the terrifying grandeur of all that remains tantalizingly and troublingly beyond our understanding. "Stimulating, humbling, original--. [Dillard] illuminate[s] the human perspective of the world, past, present and future, and the individual's relatively inconsequential but ever so unique place in it."--Rocky Mountain News
