Book Description
This book is a compilation of poems, prayers and thoughts along the way climbing my Mountain, a climb that has been both physical, mental and spiritual. Yet, my Mountain is not a destination. It's about the climb. The Mountain and I both know the climb begins anew each day. For there are no endings without new beginnings or as I like to say every day is a "BegEnding."
Meditations on the Peaks
Author: Julius Evola
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1620550385
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 112
Book Description
Evola articulates the close relationship between the physical rigors of mountain climbing and the ascent of the initiate toward self-transcendence. Julius Evola, a leading exponent of esoteric thought, was also an ardent mountain climber who personally scaled the peaks of the Tyrols, Alps, and Dolomites. For Evola the physical conquest of a mountain, with all the courage, self-transcendence and mental lucidity that it entails, becomes an inseparable and complementary part of spiritual awakening. It is no coincidence that many ancient cultures chose mountains as the abodes of their gods and considered the rigorous ascent of peaks as the task of heroes and initiates. In modern times, which tend to suffocate the heroic with naked self interest, the mountain still forms part of the profound dimension of spirit where the soul finds within itself more than what it thought itself to be. In Meditations on the Peaks, Evola combines recollections of his own experiences with reflections on other inspirational men and women who shared his view of the transcendent greatness of mountains.

Springer Mountain
Author: Wyatt Williams
Publisher: UNC Press Books
ISBN: 1469665492
Category : Cooking
Languages : en
Pages : 97
Book Description
Drawing on years of investigative reporting, Wyatt Williams offers a powerful look at why we kill and eat animals. In order to understand why we eat meat, the restaurant critic and journalist investigated factory farms, learned to hunt game, worked on a slaughterhouse kill floor, and partook in Indigenous traditions of whale eating in Alaska. In Springer Mountain, he tells about his experiences while charting the history of meat eating and vegetarianism. Williams shows how mysteries springing up from everyday experiences can lead us into the big questions of life while examining the irreconcilable differences between humans and animals. Springer Mountain is a thought-provoking work, one that reveals how what we eat tells us who we are.
