Book Description
A travelogue of Bhutan and its neighbors in the Himalayas that introduces readers to a world that has emerged from the middle ages only to find itself peering into the abyss of modernity. "For anyone with a serious interest in Buddhism, it's essential reading" (Washington Post Book World). For more than a thousand years Tibet, Sikkim, Ladakh, and Bhutan were the santuaries of Tantric Buddhism. But in the last half of this century, geopolitics has scoured the landscape of the Himalayas, and only the reclusive kingdom of Bhutan remains true to Tantric Buddhism.

Book Description
This delightful and enchanting story, told with heart and humor, is about a friendship and a journey that inspires a human to step up and transform his life – and about an angel earning his wings back. While Ben learns and applies the ten simple principles the angel is reviewing, he soon learns to create freedom for himself and others. He rediscovers life’s larger meaning, his true purpose, and the path to real happiness. Ben’s life has become meaningless. His job is at risk, his wife left him and he feels like he has no purpose and nothing to look forward to. He’s just making it through every strenuous day. But then he meets an angel - a fallen angel. The angel lost his wings and now needs to review ten lessons to be invited back into heaven. Ben decides to help his new friend with his tasks. Together they embark on a journey that would change their worlds forever! “Ms Lang provides a how-to guide for Creating Heaven on Earth by incorporating her Ten Principles into an easy-to read novella. Ben’s story portrays our own flaws that cause our suffering and self-defeating behaviors. Ben’s angel, Daniel, provides him (and the reader) effective cognitive and behavioral strategies all with a strong spiritual underpinning. Closer to Heaven is worth years of therapy.” Thomas Flanagan, M.D., board certified Psychiatrist, Associate Clinical Professor of Psychiatry

Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
She has nothing... Rain Minear has fantasized about finding herself in Joe Moffat's arms for years. It's just her luck that the night it finally happens, he's carrying her into the emergency room. It's Joe who steps up to help her when a tragedy brings her life crashing down. He gives her a place to stay, helps her get back on her feet, and even tries to save her Christmas, though he's never cared for the holiday. But he's far too ethical to sleep with a member of his staff, holding her at arms length despite the long-simmering attraction between them. He has everything... Haunted by ghosts of the past, Joe Moffat moved to Scarlet Springs to repay a debt. He's struggled for years to keep his hands off Rain. She's the general manager of his brewpub, and he is not that kind of boss. But, oh, she turns him on. More than that, she has the biggest heart of any woman he's ever known. He'd do anything to see her smile again, even put up a Christmas tree and listen to carols. The most important Christmas of their lives... When a Rocky Mountain blizzard leaves them snowbound and alone together for days, they can no longer ignore their feelings for one another. As their passion turns to something deeper, it becomes clear to them both that this will be a Christmas that changes their lives forever.

Since earliest times, humanity has pondered the incomprehensible mysteries of the universe, life...and the afterlife. In The Stairway to Heaven, the second book of Zecharia Sitchin's Earth Chronicles series, the author answers these fundamental questions: Was there somewhere on Earth where, after death, mortal man could join the immortal Gods? Where was this place? By whom was it established? And does it still exist today? After years of painstaking research--combining recent archaeological discoveries with ancient texts and artifacts--Sitchin has identified the legendary Land of the Gods, and provided astounding new revelations about the Great Pyramids, the Sphinx, and other mysterious monuments whose true meanings and purposes have been lost for eons. The Earth Chronicles deal with the history and prehistory of Earth and humankind. Each book in the series is based upon information written on clay tablets by the ancient civilizations of the Near East. For the first time, the entire Earth Chronicles series is now available in a hardcover collector's edition.
