Book Description
The book is trying to define the beautiful and the dark side from a man and a woman, that are in love of each other, but not as theory ... but as a result of analyzing facts that are happening on the timeline of the love story. It’s a book about a fairy tale, with 2 lovely characters that are not understanding, but also are not accepting that the meaning of an abstract love ... or an imposible story is to enjoy only the beauty of what is going on. The 2 people from the essays get lost so many times, that not even the people around them can’t see if the story itself is real or not. But it’s all a journey of accepting the beautiful and the dark side from the person that you love so much. After the first period when you are blinded by love, it comes the second episode when you see that you are not in love with a god, but with a human being ... and just as you have millions of imperfections ... the same has also that magic person that you fall in love with. It’s a book that defines the fact that we should accept the things just as they are ... and love with an opened heart ... no matter what is going on. The nice part is that the book is not a collection of imaginary stories ... but essays that talks about a real story between 2 adults that wants to redefine and also restart their lives ... but in the end just enjoy the fact that they met ... losing any expectation at all as the story to become a real one. Today you are happy, tomorrow you are not .. and the essays describes this in a very honest, but also beautiful way ... all those amazing moments spent togheter.

Pages : 103
Book Description
The book “PHILOSOPHY OF NOTHING” is a collection of essays that are trying to send the message that in a relationship you can be happy even if you don't have a real relationship togheter, in a clasical way, but also be unhappy when you have everything togheter. Having everything, but actually having nothing … having nothing, but actually having everything is an idea that we should meditate on it. We live in a world of unhappy marriages, that should be totally redefined, but actually are dying little by little, day by day ... with no change from any of the 2 partners. Wainting for NOTHING for years, doing NOTHING … but expecting everything from the other side. Love is not math and will never be. Love is not a business and will be never be. Philosophy of NOTHING is trying to define the beautiful side, but also the dark side of the love stories. The book does not have any architecture and is just a collection of essays. And maybe the only message of the book is quite simple: to be happpy you probably need NOTHING, but enjoy the present moment with the person you are in the story. Daring to do it … you don't need anything, cause you actually have everything, the love story itself.

Book Description
Chale jo do kadam saath woh, (As she ambles the aisle with me) To unke saath se Pyaar ho jaye, (May I be enmeshed in her companionship forever) Thaame jo Pyaar se mera haath woh, (As she seizes my hand with tender love) To apne hi haath se Pyaar ho jaye, (May I be ensnared by the charm of my own hand) Hota hai agar itna khoobsurat yeh Pyaar, (If love is so alluring and prepossessing) To aye Khuda unhe bhi mere Pyaar se Pyaar ho jaye! (Oh omniscient being! May she be enchanted by my love) It was 5 in the morning when I blinked open an eye to wake up. I was in deep sleep till some time ago, and it felt as if someone had lovingly caressed my hair. But when I opened my eyes, there was no one there. For a few precious moments, I felt the sensation of that loving touch that I had experienced since childhood. It seemed as if that sensation was all around me. Now that presence was close to me; my Radha in the form of Annu was in my life. Divine Love of Two Souls is a story of those emotions that this generation has perhaps lost along the way.

His love Her fantasy ... understanding what love is about As a man, but also as a woman, we try to define the undefined from a love story. Dreaming about love and being in love ... the path from the fantasy to the love story itself ... is just a matter of luck ... or maybe where you find yourself, on the timeline of your own life. Maybe is the perfect time for you to explore what love is about, or maybe other things are important at the moment ... and the love story can only be a future “project”. Exploring what love is about ... in our minds, as a fantasy ... or in the real life, as a real love story ... is depending only and only if we are ready or not. But what is the difference between fantasy and reality, when even the Bible is saying that everything we see is just an illusion? Well ... i believe that the fantasy is only the begining of defining what we want ... and the love story is the “experiment” itself. Is it too much to name a love story ... an “experiment”?! Well ... exploring ... as a fantasy or as reality is letting your soul understand what love is about. And ... sometimes is even a life lesson. The moment when you jump into the fairy tale ... the real fantasy ... and you understand the meaning of love ... the fact that love is about giving and not about receiving ... that is the moment when you also understand what life is about. Accepting your partner, just as he / she is ... just as accepting all the people from our lives is the moment of awakening. And also you should know that this path is leading you to point when your thinking will be totally redefined. Life itself ... is about love. Seeing what love is about ... is understanding the meaning of life. If the “love chapter” started for you ... even if it’s just a fantasy or reality ... you should be happy. The awakening will come to you!

Book Description
LOVE ... the pathless path that goes to your soul. Is really love a necessity for our lives?! Why can’t life be much simple, mathematical, with very clear rules to follow?! Why we need to fall in love?! We should spend our lives only following the path the society taught us about ... finish school, get a job, make money, try to be successful, retire ... and then die. Why we need this complicated story of studying what love is about?! Well ... first all of you have a heart inside of you ... to feel the life ... and being in a love story everything becomes more “real”. Following just the paths the society told you about should be boring. This is why lots of poets and writers ... wrote so much, trying to define the meaning of love in our lives. When you are the kind of person that look at life in a logical and rational way ... falling in love looks like useless, like a pathless path. But discovering the love feelings, in a time when everything looked like boring in your life ... redefines everything. Is never a good moment to fall in love, cause you will always need to do something in the real life ... and looks like there is no time to loose for those silly feelings ... but one day ... when the feelings become so strong inside of you ... you realise that you just started to feel ALIVE. You always did what other taught you to do in life .... the parents, friends, teachers or people you know ... but no one came to you to whisper the secret of life ... IF YOU WANT TO FEEL ALIVE ... JUST LET YOUR HEART TO FALL IN LOVE. You might loose your soul, your heart, your mind ... but you will feel being alive. No other path gives you those feelings. Yesss ... truth be told ... LOVE ... is the pathless path ... but it goes to your soul.

THE MUSE

Pages : 96
Book Description
The Muse. A non sense need of illusions. We are looking for inspiration all around ... till we find out that the inspiration is just not coming. We look all around. We are looking for something or someone that can give us a great vibe ... everyday. And one day ... we believe we found that we are looking for. She ... is the Muse. All great people from history, great artists, politicians, leaders, writers, poets, businessmen ... all of them, at one point ... they had an amazing muse that inspired them at a great dream. The muse gave them the confidence of believing in themselves and they always thought that the inspiration came from that person. But inspiration is actually coming from the Universe, and represent the connection between us and Divinity. The muse is not ... the Divinity ... but maybe being in such a story, we understand how we can connect to the Infinite. But can we, the ordinary people, learn to connect to then Universe, just as a monk does it ... without any love story?! Can we find this power in ourselves ... to find that greatness without the help of a loved muse?! What is her sense?! Is she the one that reveals the beauty and the huge powers locked in our spirits?! Can the secret of greatness comes just by having a love story ... or we should start studying how a monk is using his powers to understand the laws of the Universe, just by connecting to himself ... and then to the Infinite?! A muse looks like a non sense illusion. But ... all great people used the trick to connect to the Universe this way. Maybe ... the need of a muse is just a preliminary stage before you understand that in fact everything is in yourself. The muse is only the one that is whispering you the great secret about yourself ... that you are an amazing human being and that you can be ... whoever you dream to be. The muse is indeed an illusion ... a beautiful one ... but one day you will just understand that everything you need is already in yourself. The real non sense that you should analyze ... and focus a lot on it ... is why we don’t believe in ourselves?! ... and why we need this adorable person to whisper beautiful words to us ... when we can think as a monk?! Just think about it!

Book Description
I wrote 10 books about love, but maybe someone should come to forbidden me … the right of speaking about the subject. Cause to be honest … i was writing so much about it … but … i don’t really know what love is. When i was personally involved … i was blind. I was not seeing clear absolutely anything at all. Most probably … being so, so … deep … in those stories … i did not had the ability to see everything detached and … it all became illusory for my mind. And i had so contradictory … perceptions. But one day … someone told me an interesting story … about how he got all what he wanted in his life … except love. This story made me decide to start writing a new book about the subject … but from a new perspective. This time i was the one that watch the play … like a spectator. I was looking at him. … but also at her. I was not interested to analyze more …. one of the sides … but only and only … the connection between those souls. My new friend started to tell me more and more about his life … and the paradox that even if he succeeded to get from life all he ever dreamed … he could not see any joy at all for himself. There was no reason for him to smile or …. to be happy. His face was always sending to everyone the impression of a profound … unhappiness. But one day … the guy … which by the way was a married person … met an amazing lady … and asked her to be his … love teacher. He could not say it from the beginning … but the next second he had this opportunity …. he found the guts to say it. And the funny thing was that she said … yes. She accepted the fact that he was married … cause there was no other chance to be together for the present moment. So … they started the lesson. Brian … this was his real name … was telling me new and new details. Many times i was simple smiling … not really knowing how to define the 2 of them, but later i realize that Carla was in the same position as him. She tried many times to find the happiness. The Universe sent in her life so, so many men … but all of those relationships looked like …. what we could name as …. pathless paths. This time … with this guy Brian …. all looked different. And he really wanted to understand what love is about. He came to me … confessing about his amazing story with Carla … and we were wondering … why the hell we had to learn so, so many things in school, but never about … love. His relationship with Carla became kind of a therapy. A weird one … but even if it was a slow process …. my friend Brian started to feel like a … different person. He was visiting her in her small studio, spending so, so many hours together … kissing her, discussing together … but also making love. She was teaching him … the tremendous power of touch … the meaning of feelings … and how love can heal our souls. Everyday … was a new lesson. She was his therapist … but liking her so, so much … and falling in love with her … he became her therapist also. In the night he was coming back at home …. and he was meditating more and more of what he was doing. Had no regret that he was cheating his wife, cause the connection itself was broken by a long, long time. And he loved this kind of … therapy. Everyday … he wanted to spend more and more time with her. Her energy … all that love felt while being into her arms … even if there were moments when they simple practiced the silence …. was making him feel cured. I was analyzing them … more and more …. until one day when i had the chance to meet her also. And i had the same feeling regarding Carla … that she was also having therapy with my friend Brian. … love therapy. Now … i was looking from outside at all this … and … i actually saw my stories. … all my love stories. I was analyzing and defining them … but i was trying to understand my stories and my way of acting from the past. It all became so damn clear now. Looking at Brian and Carla … i suddenly understood that all i was doing into my past …. In all the love stories … was to heal my soul. I needed … therapy also. But i was afraid of following a classic way …. at a regular therapist. All needed to be abstract … to hide the fact that i needed … to heal my broken soul. I smile realizing that all those partners … were my therapists …. Brian and Carla made me understand much clearer … my own story. And many others as them. Seeing detached … all those love stories …. defining them in my writings … little by little i started to understand what love is about … and its tremendous power.

Author: Liz Evers
Publisher: Kings Road Publishing
ISBN: 1784182265
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 155
Book Description
Today's parents are increasingly replacing nursery rhymes with the latest pop songs, and fairy tales - now thought too scary for little ones - with cute stories about farmyard animals and talking trains.Until recently, weird tales of fairy curses and flesh-eating ogres were considered suitable bedtime reading. And the strange-sounding and sometimes violent rhymes we learned by rote were often taught to us in school. But have you ever asked yourself what on earth they were about? And what exactly were the morals and lessons we were meant to learn from them?Here Comes a Chopper to Chop Off Your Head delves into the origins of the best-known rhymes and tales to uncover a legacy of folk superstition, rotten royal families, execution, child marriage, cannibalism, and the multitude of other random acts of cruelty that make up any classic treasury.You'll learn about the bloody history of Mary,Mary, Quite Contrary; why Margery Daw, the subject of an innocent-seeming seesaw game, was accused of being a 'dirty slut'; and how pretending to decapitate your little friends to the tune of Oranges and Lemons became an acceptable pastime.You'll also find out about the terrifying events that befell the first Sleeping Beauty when she finally woke up; how Snow White's stepmother really died; and just who the wolf was in Little Red Riding Hood.
