Book Description
In this collection of 40 essays, Meg Barnhouse writes about everyday events such as dropping stuff off at the thrift shop or watching TV with the kids--and she transforms them with her offbeat humor and infectious hopefulness. We meet characters like Julia Hill, who set up camp atop an old-growth redwood in order to stop the loggers: "Maybe she's a saint. Maybe she's nuts. I don't have to decide." And Mike, who parks his Chevy Silverado in vacant lots next to a homemade sign. On the day Barnhouse found him, his sign read: "Mom and Dad, are your children saved? The devil is after their souls." "One of my hobbies," Barnhouse says, "is talking to people who aren't going with the flow." Barnhouse puts her faith in the Karma Fairy, who is "here to show us that we are not safe in our righteousness, our intelligence, our careful nutrition, our common sense, our hip and groovy walk in the Tao. She is here to give us deep, full hearts. She is here to show us that we have it in us to make as big a mess as the next person. If we are ever going to find a cure for self-righteousness, the root of all separation, of all cruelty, we need her touch."

Book Description
In her newest collection of essays, Barnhouse (Waking Up The Karma Fairy) writes about everyday events, rendering them spiritual. At Big Bill's U-Store, an auction of rummage items prompts Barnhouse to dream up an emotional baggage sale. Drawing from both her personal experience and her insights as a minister and therapist, Barnhouse urges readers to let go of regrets and stress about the future and to surrender to circumstance during times of conflict. Her motto: Don't just do something, stand there. Barnhouse's humorous and hopeful message is that faith in family, friends, and one2s self, rather than sudden actions, provides the guidance necessary to weather life's problems and personal struggles.

Book Description
Life is Karma. As life unfolds day after day, we are confronted with circumstances, good and bad, and we wonder why things are happening the way they are. Is it luck, chance, serendipity or is it God instructing what should happen in our lives? It is none of these. It is Karma. Karma is a Law of Action, a Law of Action and Reaction, which is based on the principle, ‘as you sow, so shall you reap.’ Everything that is happening in our life is unfolding as per Karma. But we don't realize that it is twin Karma, one, the Karma of the past which we cannot change and second, the Karma of the present which depends on our free will, our choice of action that we choose based on our intellect. But it is not as simple as this. Everything that we do in life creates Karma. And even after we die, our Karma continues with our Mind and Ego, ME that takes rebirth on earth along with its karma. This book 'Life is Karma' explains everything about Karma, and beyond, how we can be liberated from Karma and be united with the Divine.
