Book Description
Perhaps Paul Kareem Taylor said it best in his piece called On the Road Again: Barbara Hamby's American Odyssey: "Reading Barbara Hamby's poetry is like going on a road trip, one where the woman behind the wheel lets you ride shotgun as she speeds across the open highways of an America where drive-in movie theaters still show Janet Leigh films on Friday nights, hardware stores have not been driven out of business by soulless corporate titans, and where long poetic lines first introduced by Walt Whitman and resurrected by Ginsberg are pregnant with a thousand reasons to marvel at the world we inhabit."

Tantrika
Author: Asra Nomani
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 006186028X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 312
Book Description
A Foreign Correspondent's Search for Her Cultural and Spiritual Identity What began as an assignment from her editor at the Wall Street Journal to investigate "America's hottest new fad," the secrets of sexual ecstasy in Tantra, became a story that would lead reporter Asra Nomani halfway around the world and change forever her life, faith, and self-identity. From a New Age Tantric seminar in Santa Cruz to sitting at the feet of the Dalai Lama in India, from meditation caves in Thailand to crossing the Khyber Pass with Muslim militants and staring down the barrel of an Afghan soldier's AK-47, Nomani's trek unexpectedly climaxes in Pakistan, where she risks great danger in joining the hunt for kidnapped fellow reporter Danny Pearl. She travels the globe in search of this elusive "divine love," but ultimately hers is a journey of self-discovery in which the divine within herself and within all women -- all "tantrikas" -- is revealed.

Revelations of Divine Love
Author: Julian of Norwich
Publisher: Ixia Press
ISBN: 0486836088
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 259
Book Description
The fourteenth-century anchorite known as Julian of Norwich offered fervent prayers for a deeper understanding of Christ's passion. The holy woman's petitions were answered with a series of divine revelations that she called "shewings." Her mystic visions revealed Christ's sufferings with extreme intensity, but they also confirmed God's constant love for humanity and infinite capacity for forgiveness. Julian of Norwich's Revelations of Divine Love have had a lasting influence on Christian thought. Written in immediate, compelling terms, her experiences remain among the most original and accessible expressions of medieval mysticism. This edition contains both the short text, which is mainly an account of the shewings and Julian's initial analysis of their meaning, and the long text, completed some 20 years later and offering daringly speculative interpretations.

Divine Love
Author: Jeanne de la Mothe Guyon
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1532662815
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 213
Book Description
In this book, visual and poetic emblems of God's love, created by Otto van Veen and Jeanne Guyon, symbolically represent spiritual meaning and, as such, offer a gift of revealed strength and purpose to the aware reader. In our age, when love seems almost forgotten, this emblem book uniting Guyon's poetry and D'Othon Vaenius's illustrations give us a faithful look into what might be. What if Divine love becomes part of the human endeavor and joins to human souls? Otto van Veen and Jeanne de la Mothe Guyon internalized this hope and here reveal to us their vision of the love of God bonding and becoming one with the human soul. Translated into English for the first time here, these emblems of divine love become available to postmodern readers.

Divine Love
Author: Camilla Nichols
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1984512285
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 110
Book Description
As humanity moves into the Age of Aquarius and outdated patriarchal systems fall away, individuals are searching for meaning and real human connection in a chaotic, material, nonstop, technology-driven world. For decades, in this consumer- and debt-driven world, the mind/ego has been the dominant motivating force behind peoples actions. The mind/ego keeps one anchored to material possessions and the judgment of others. The majority of cultural, political, and religious systems that divide rather than unite humanity are slowly falling away as their corruption and manipulation of others is exposed and people begin to realize how they have been enslaved in false constructs. People are seeking meaning in their lives beyond material accumulation or the lack thereof. Divine Love: Ascension Through the Divine Heart is a modern road map to the discovery of and connection with ones divine heart versus a life founded on the mind/ego. A divine heart operates from the principle of unconditional love for oneself and all fellow human beings. It embodies All is one, one is all and recognizes that no life is meaningless nor is any person better or superior to another. Living from ones divine heart opens an individual to both giving and receiving unconditional versus conditional love for self and all others. It releases one from attachment, selfishness, fear, and greed to the embodiment of the principle that all are equal, all are worthy of unconditional love, and that each of us is a divine child.

Pages : 106
Book Description
Travel has always been Barbara Hamby's muse, and in Bird Odyssey she hits the road hard, riding a train across Siberia, taking a car trip from Memphis to New Orleans on Highway 61, and following The Odyssey from Troy to Ithaka. The concatenation of images released include Elvis and Tolstoy cruising through the sky in a pink Cadillac, Homer and Robert Johnson discussing their art in the Underworld, and the women in The Odyssey telling their side of the story, because what's a woman to do in this world of men? She has to strike out on her own, ask the right questions, and tell her own story, translating the world into her own bright lie.
