Book Description
In “a brilliant antidote to all the…false narratives about pot” (American Thinker), an award-winning author and former New York Times reporter reveals the link between teenage marijuana use and mental illness, and a hidden epidemic of violence caused by the drug—facts the media have ignored as the United States rushes to legalize cannabis. Recreational marijuana is now legal in nine states. Advocates argue cannabis can help everyone from veterans to cancer sufferers. But legalization has been built on myths—that marijuana arrests fill prisons; that most doctors want to use cannabis as medicine; that it can somehow stem the opiate epidemic; that it is beneficial for mental health. In this meticulously reported book, Alex Berenson, a former New York Times reporter, explodes those myths, explaining that almost no one is in prison for marijuana; a tiny fraction of doctors write most authorizations for medical marijuana, mostly for people who have already used; and marijuana use is linked to opiate and cocaine use. Most of all, THC—the chemical in marijuana responsible for the drug’s high—can cause psychotic episodes. “Alex Berenson has a reporter’s tenacity, a novelist’s imagination, and an outsider’s knack for asking intemperate questions” (Malcolm Gladwell, The New Yorker), as he ranges from the London institute that is home to the scientists who helped prove the cannabis-psychosis link to the Colorado prison where a man now serves a thirty-year sentence after eating a THC-laced candy bar and killing his wife. He sticks to the facts, and they are devastating. With the US already gripped by one drug epidemic, Tell Your Children is a “well-written treatise” (Publishers Weekly) that “takes a sledgehammer to the promised benefits of marijuana legalization, and cannabis enthusiasts are not going to like it one bit” (Mother Jones).

Book Description
The 'Reality Explained' Trilogy is the culmination of a thirty-year direct investigation into the fundamental nature of Reality. The study of Reality is a response to one's deep-seated need to understand the mysterious, yet ordered world that we find ourselves inextricably woven into. The study of Reality is not limited to the study of the outward world, but it is also the study of the very space or capacity that the entire world exists in. The study of Reality exists to resolve the paradoxical relationship between Mind and matter, God and individuality, Heaven and earth, or generally speaking, the Absolute and the relative. Book Two: "Being, While Knowing You Are Not," is focused on the day-to-day details of what it is like to live in the world while knowing that you are not of it. This book also serves as a cautionary tale for all of the pain, emotional trauma, and otherwise dark feelings that may surface after surrendering yourself to Mystery. Whereas the first book is focused on my pursuit of the truth of our existence, the second book is focused on how this pursuit affected my daily life and my worldly affairs. Collectively, this Trilogy tells the entire story of our existence, as far as I have been shown. However, this is not by any stretch of the imagination, the end of Mystery. Instead, it is merely the beginning. The beginning of what? That's the question that your life is the answer to.

Book Description
The "Reality Explained" Trilogy is the culmination of a thirty-year direct investigation into the fundamental nature of Reality. The study of Reality is a response to one's deep-seated need to understand the mysterious, yet ordered world that we find ourselves inextricably woven into. An exhaustive examination of Reality is not limited to the study of the outward world, but it is also the study of the very space or capacity that the entire world exists in. The study of Reality exists to resolve the paradoxical relationship between 'Mind and matter' or 'God and individuality', or more generally speaking, the 'Absolute and the relative.' Book Three: "Triunistic Model of Reality," is a thorough and exhaustive examination of the actual architecture or design of Reality. This book represents the fruit of my search for Truth. It is also a full extrapolation of the specific Vision that provided the insight that was necessary for my experience of Enlightenment. This last book of the Trilogy is the least personal book as it instead relies on my intuitive life. It is the life that no one sees, yet it encompasses almost all of my experience. Collectively, this Trilogy tells the entire story of our existence, as far as I have been shown. However, this is not by any stretch of the imagination, the end of Mystery. Instead, it is merely the beginning. The beginning of what? That's the question that your life is the answer to.

Book Description
If life is but a dream, to what do we awake? The central premise of Dreamstate: A Conspiracy Theory, is the admittedly ridiculous but incontrovertibly true assertion that the universe does not exist. This is something you can understand conceptually, like watching a documentary about Antarctica, or experientially, like moving to Antarctica. There’s also a related phenomenon where you fall asleep watching the documentary and wake up in the frozen wasteland. That’s gotta be weird, but the truth is that you’re asleep in a barren wasteland dreaming that you’re not, so that’s where waking up gets you.

Book Description
Master storyteller Alice Hoffman brings us the conclusion of the Practical Magic series in a spellbinding and enchanting final Owens novel brimming with lyric beauty and vivid characters. The Owens family has been cursed in matters of love for over three-hundred years but all of that is about to change. The novel begins in a library, the best place for a story to be conjured, when beloved aunt Jet Owens hears the deathwatch beetle and knows she has only seven days to live. Jet is not the only one in danger—the curse is already at work. A frantic attempt to save a young man’s life spurs three generations of the Owens women, and one long-lost brother, to use their unusual gifts to break the curse as they travel from Paris to London to the English countryside where their ancestor Maria Owens first practiced the Unnamed Art. The younger generation discovers secrets that have been hidden from them in matters of both magic and love by Sally, their fiercely protective mother. As Kylie Owens uncovers the truth about who she is and what her own dark powers are, her aunt Franny comes to understand that she is ready to sacrifice everything for her family, and Sally Owens realizes that she is willing to give up everything for love. The Book of Magic is a breathtaking conclusion that celebrates mothers and daughters, sisters and brothers, and anyone who has ever been in love.

Book Description
Liberation Unleashed introduces you to the process of unraveling the false sense of a separate self at the center of your existence. With insightful metaphors, personal stories, and guided dialogues, this book points directly to our lack of separation and helps you move toward a new, more open reality of selfless bliss. Using the seven clear and focused steps presented, you’ll find liberation in realizing there is no individuated “I” and marvel at the true nature of things. Author Ilona Ciunaite’s search for the truth began when she first “experienced silence of the thinking mind, a sweet sense of being, contentment, peace,” and “feeling at home.” Driven by a desire to reach that state of oneness once more, her path led her through spiritual writings to the process of deconstruction and non-dual self-inquiry and finally to a peaceful emptiness of not knowing, but of simply being. It’s from that place that Ciunaite cocreated the popular Liberation Unleashed forum—a global Internet-based community helping people see through the illusion of a separate self—and it’s just that sense of unknowing peace she wishes to impart with this book. Liberation Unleashed is a lively, fresh, and moving account of the author’s own searching, liberation, and transformation, woven together with the stories of fellow seekers and a clear exposition of the simple, focused tools you can use to go through the “gateless gate.” With its conversational tone, provocative questions, and the presentation of the seven steps—“Clearing the path—meeting the fear,” “Strip away ALL expectations,” “Get in touch with the real,” “‘I’ is a thought,” “There is no separate self,” “How does it feel to see this?” and “Falling”—this book serves as an introductory how-to guide, demonstrating how to use the process of self-inquiry to get free from the falseness of the separate self and realize a blissful oneness. So many of us go through life feeling isolated, searching for ourselves, or seeking a more authentic reality through religion, spirituality, or other, more unconventional means of expanding consciousness. Now, with this book and its guiding principles, you’ll learn how to look deeply into the nature of self and existence; combat the anxieties, fears, mental blocks, and reservations that can arise in self-inquiry; and see the simple beauty of the everyday moment.
