Mythological Body
Author: Premyogi Vajra
Publisher: Premyogi Vajra
ISBN:
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 118
Book Description
This book, in a form similar to the Mythological Puranas, is a unique novel of spiritual-scientific fiction type. It is based on a spiritual-physical type of mixed imagination. It is based on the physical and spiritual miracles happening in our bodies every moment. This philosophy describes our body completely in accordance with medical science, giving it a touch of spirituality. That is why, according to the general public perception, it makes the dull medical science simple and interesting, and child-friendly. It is capable of satisfying all kinds of spiritual and material curiosities of the readers. It unites the grossness and subtlety of every level present in the universe, that is, it leads to real non-duality. This philosophy is like a novel, and it does not have different chapters. By reading this, readers get complete information about the body according to medical science; that too in an interesting, progressive and spiritual manner. In this book, the events happening in the body have been described in a simple and philosophical manner. This book is adapted from the original book titled Sharirvigyan Darshan ~ Ek adhunik kundalini tantra [ek yogi ki premkatha] written in Hindi. Some readers said that there are many topics together in this book, hence some confusion arises. Many people don't want to read a long book, and many want to focus on a single topic. We did not consider it good to tamper with the original book, because it was written by Premyogi Vajra just after his sudden and momentary Kundalini awakening, due to which it could have some divine inspiration and divine power. That is why we presented only its philosophy of physiology part in a new form for such readers. Although this physiological philosophy is the original, which Premyogi Vajra started writing long before his so-called awakening, he undoubtedly finalized it later by adding to it his spiritual experiences. Similarly, there is also another book named ‘a modern Kundalini Tantra (A Yogi's Love Story)’ in Hindi, and named ‘A new age Kundalini Tantra (autobiography of a Love Yogi) in English’, which is second part of this original book. In this, only the yogic and spiritual aspects of the original book have been mainly considered. It is hoped that this book will meet the expectations of the people.

Community Nutrition for Developing Countries
Author: Norman J. Temple
Publisher: Athabasca University Press and UNISA Press
ISBN: 1927356113
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 509
Book Description
Nutrition textbooks used by universities and colleges in developing countries have very often been written by scholars who live and work in North America or the United Kingdom. And while the research and information they present is sound, the nutrition-related health challenges with which developing countries must grapple differ considerably from those found in highly industrialized Western nations. The primary aim of Community Nutrition for Developing Countries is to provide a book that meets the needs of nutritionists and other health professionals living and working in developing countries. Written by both scholars and practitioners, the volume draws on their wealth of knowledge, experience, and understanding of nutrition in developing countries to provide nutrition professionals with all the information they require. Each chapter addresses a specific nutrition challenge currently faced by developing countries such as food security, food safety, disease prevention, maternal health, and effective nutrition policy. In addition, the volume serves as an invaluable resource for those developing and implementing nutrition education programmes. With an emphasis on nutritional education as a means to prevent disease and effectively manage health disorders, it is the hope of the nearly three dozen contributors to this work that it will enhance the health and well-being of low-income populations throughout the world.
