Book Description
This book is about situations we all have had, or will go through literally in life that will either transform our minds or allow us the opportunity to have other situations that will. The need to know yourself and your purpose for being here is the key point of the journey. The book shares that in life we all have stories, adventures, even tragedies that we feel are real. We have them but we are not them. The chapters describe the high roads and the low roads of love, sex, relationships, talents, servitude and gratitude. Ultimately the book pronounces the importance of the male and female balance. It reintroduces the significance of The Woman, The Mother, The Female and her presence in the world. She is the focal point of this book. Due to the patriarchal dominance for so long, this book is written to cause thoughts of what the world would be like when the balance of both male and female energy is in total harmony without, dominance, control and power for the gratification of the false ego verses the higher sense of being.

Languages : en
Pages : 299
Book Description
Modern "prophets" and even scientists believe that devastating earthquakes and tsunamis that have killed many people on Haiti, in Chili and in Japan lately were the heralds of more scaled natural cataclysms that, according to Mayan calendar, may destroy the life on Earth in December 2012. Many people try to find salvation in religion However, sensational discoveries made by the author, reveal the fact that trying to hide the truth about Jesus, Church founders made so many theological mistakes that made salvation impossible. Honest to God, Honest to Man is the author's desperate attempt to tell the truth about why did it happen, and why religious teachings became the source of religious intolerance and terrorism.

UnEldered
Author: Françoise Elvin
Publisher: Crafted Ltd
ISBN:
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 369
Book Description
Meticulously researched and rich in personal experience shared as memoir, 'UnEldered' offers insight, inspiration and maps of meaning for a 'post-truth' era. Looking through the lens of traditional culture where 'Elders' were wisdom-keepers and mentors to the young, we ask - what happens we abandon Youth to their own devices? Difficult to pigeon hole, yet cogent and lucid throughout, the book marries the personal and political in a confluence of subject matter including anthropology, psychology, sociology, geopolitics, memoir and suggestions for community practice and self-care. It's founded on the notion that we need to restructure society from the ground up, and calls upon the role of the Elder as one that was and remains pivotal to fully functional societies. We also succeed in pulling back the curtain on the Covid years, linking censorship, corporate capture and engineered consent with the emerging Global Government know as 'Agenda 2030' that some might prefer to describe as a Neo-Feudal Technocracy... If you've been wondering where to look for the low down on contemporary culture in a detailed yet digestible form, look no further - the book weaves together complex subjects without resorting to memes! From attachment theory and neuroscience to the 'precision nudge', from sexuality to geo-politics, you'll find yourself empowered to navigate dangerous, difficult times with a depth of insight rarely found in a single volume.

Wild Mother Dancing
Author: Di Brandt
Publisher: Univ. of Manitoba Press
ISBN: 0887553931
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 199
Book Description
Wild Mother Dancing challenges the historical absence of the mother, who, as subject and character, has been repeatedly suppressed and edited out of the literary canon. In her search for sources for telling the new (or old, forbidden story) against a tradition of narrative absence, Brandt turns to Canadian fiction representing a variety of cultural traditions—Margaret Laurence, Daphne Marlatt, Jovette Marchessault, Joy Kogawa, Sky Lee—and a collection of oral interviews about childbirth told by Mennonite women. The results broaden, enrich, and finally recover the motherstory in ways that have revolutionary implications for our institutions and imaginations.

Alice Walker
Author: Deborah G. Plant
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 0313377510
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
This biography explores Alice Walker's life experiences and her lifework in context of her philosophical thought, and celebrates the author's creative genius and heroism. Born in Eatonton, GA, in 1944, a daughter of sharecroppers, Alice Walker has lived a remarkable and courageous life, and she continues to do so as an elder. Taking inspiration from her great-great-great-great grandmother who lived enslaved in the American South and died at age 125, Walker's activism stems from a philosophy that embraces all life and expresses itself through courageous truth-telling, a resolute stand for freedom, and radical love. Alice Walker: A Woman for Our Times offers a full examination of the intellectual underpinnings of Walker's life and her oeuvre from a philosophical standpoint. This philosophical biography draws a portrait of the author that reveals the nuances of her character, clarifies the relationship between her life experiences and her lifework, and the philosophical thought that underlies both. This work will be essential reading to those interested in Black studies, women's studies, the Civil Rights and Black Arts movements, peace studies, the American South, philosophy, psychology, sociology, spirituality and New Age literature, and ecology and eco-feminism.

The Silk Road
Author: Kathryn Davis
Publisher: Graywolf Press
ISBN: 1555978290
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 145
Book Description
A spellbinding novel about transience and mortality, by one of the most original voices in American literature The Silk Road begins on a mat in yoga class, deep within a labyrinth on a settlement somewhere in the icy north, under the canny guidance of Jee Moon. When someone fails to arise from corpse pose, the Astronomer, the Archivist, the Botanist, the Keeper, the Topologist, the Geographer, the Iceman, and the Cook remember the paths that brought them there—paths on which they still seem to be traveling. The Silk Road also begins in rivalrous skirmishing for favor, in the protected Eden of childhood, and it ends in the harrowing democracy of mortality, in sickness and loss and death. Kathryn Davis’s sleight of hand brings the past, present, and future forward into brilliant coexistence; in an endlessly shifting landscape, her characters make their way through ruptures, grief, and apocalypse, from existence to nonexistence, from embodiment to pure spirit. Since the beginning of her extraordinary career, Davis has been fascinated by journeys. Her books have been shaped around road trips, walking tours, hegiras, exiles: and now, in this triumphant novel, a pilgrimage. The Silk Road is her most explicitly allegorical novel and also her most profound vehicle; supple and mesmerizing, the journey here is not undertaken by a single protagonist but by a community of separate souls—a family, a yoga class, a generation. Its revelations are ravishing and desolating.
