Teenage Wasteland
Author: Edoardo Genzolini
Publisher: Schiffer + ORM
ISBN: 1507304382
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
The reason I am writing this book is because it has never been properly given credit to the real cradle of the Who’s success: San Francisco. The concerts the Who played at promoter Bill Graham’s Bay Area venues made them grow exponentially and unified them as a band at a time that guitarist Pete Townshend recalled as artistically and financially draining. San Francisco held the band together, gave it confidence and the right input that made it become what it is known for today. The two Winterland concerts in 1968 and 1976 are pivotal, in that 1968 is the one in which the most interesting experimentation took place, while the 1976 performance is considered the band’s Zenit by everyone that was there.

Book Description
“I was the child who danced in the sky when everyone was fast asleep.” Within all of us, darkness and light respond to the external circumstances of life. We sink; we ascend. With eyes open in self-realization, we transcend. Our world is awakening in an evolutionary shift of frequency, rising out of suffering to an as yet unknown spiritual terrain. It is a magical time. This is an imprint traces one woman’s journey of love, loss, identity, and spirit—one poet’s voice resonating with the collective consciousness that joins us all. www.nejoudalyagout.com

Book Description
An outlier in many ways, this book focuses on what is typically not observed, nor consciously searched in our lives. We know more about becoming, however, more significant in life's enrichment is the unbecoming. While the former shapes a self-oriented life-style, the latter emphasizes other-centric behavior. You can pivot to a better life, lasting peace, tranquility, and satisfaction with your life-goals if you practice unbecoming. Unbecoming provides the most rewarding life style and satisfaction with how you are invested you life for yourself and for the good of others.

Don't Foolish Yourself: Impermanence as the Key to Wisdom
Author: Robert Colacurcio
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN:
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 95
Book Description
The subtitle of this book is “Impermanence as the Key to Wisdom.” Actually the word “wisdom” occurs only infrequently as in the expression “the arc of evolution leads to the goal of wisdom-compassion non dual” for every sentient being. In days gone by, Catholic universities especially used to feature wisdom as one of the primary goals of their curriculum. Wisdom as a feature of higher education seems to have fallen out of favor. I’m not clear on why that is, except that once upon a time, philosophy & theology used to be enthroned as the Queen of the Sciences. Not beheaded quite, but certainly dethroned, she now serves more like the scullery maid in the Castle of Technology. Whatever the case may be, I’m not talking about “wisdom” as the West has typically understood it. My explication of impermanence is about one of the many folds the universe takes to crease the fabric of its infinitely varied manifestations. I have adopted the spiritual technology of the Buddha to do this. Therefore, my approach is the rather eastern, specifically Tibetan, viewpoint of what “wisdom” means. Nevertheless, I try my best to explain the methodology from the Buddha’s toolkit in terms a contemporary western reader will not find foreign.

U CAN'T MAKE THIS STUFF UP
Author: Larry Malcolm
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1499037783
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 384
Book Description
The reason I wrote this book was to make available stories that prove it is not too late. I had discernment that I should write short stories and mix various topics with both humor and eternal consequences. On October 30, 2012, I was on an elevator flirting with several women. I walked off that elevator with an idea: a book about flirting. During the first week of November 2012, I asked Jesus to give me ideas for a book. In 48 hours, the Holy Spirit gave me 130 ideas for a book. Sixty weeks and 950 hours of work later, I have a complete manuscript. the Bible says I'm just a filthy rag. I'm not a preacher because I'm not called and would be unworthy. I'm not a teacher because I would have no patience, and I'm not a speaker because I'm very shy with large groups. Therefore, the printed virgin*. Maybe I'm an explainer. I prefer to explain my faults and sins rather than point at others. There is a fine line between being judgmental and attempting to explain the truth. I once was told from an old-fashioned "fire and brimstone" preacher that he did not judge people, but people judged themselves with their actions. If U are truly told by "the Son of God" to give someone a message, U better do it. U are not going to like your life for being disobedient. However, U may temporarily not like your life for being obedient. It is a strange dichotomy in the dilemma of life. We have to not wither but have planted seeds in the good ground of life to withstand the persecution. I truly hope those who may feel offended by my humor or Bible's truths . . . will understand that I'm speaking from my heart and only want to help, and I'm incapable of expressing the right words at the right time in person. Please remember I'm in this struggle too. Just because I have written a book . . . does not mean I am exempted from hell. A walk with Jesus and temptation from the devil is a daily battle. I need your prayers. I'm a long ways from where I want to be in Christ. Larry
