Book Description
Washington's progressive champion explains how we can achieve a truly inclusive America that works for all of us In November 2016, Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives, the first Indian American woman to serve in that role. Two years later, the "fast-rising Democratic star and determined critic of President Donald Trump," according to Politico's Playbook 2017 "Power List," won reelection with more votes than any other member of the House. Jayapal, co-chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, proved her progressive bonafides when she introduced the most comprehensive Medicare-for-all bill to Congress in February. Behind the story of Jayapal's rise to political prominence lie over two decades of devoted advocacy on behalf of immigrants and progressive causes—and years of learning how to turn activism into public policy that serves all Americans. Use the Power You Have is Jayapal's account of the path from sixteen-year-old Indian immigrant to grassroots activist, state senator, and now progressive powerhouse in Washington, DC. Written with passion and insight, Use the Power You Have offers a wealth of ideas and inspiration for a new generation of engaged citizens interested in fighting back and making change, whether in Washington or in their own communities.

Book Description
Based on his landmark research and teachings, Dr. John Demartini has discovered the key to fulfillment in all aspects of life.

Pages : 0
Book Description
A Canadian teenager who was being bullied at school turned her life around using her superpower; a woman in India used her power to find her dream job when she was made redundant; an unexpected apology from an enemy; improved finances; inanimate object repairs and physical healing - these are just a few examples of superpower "miracles" shared in this book. What if you had a superpower? What if, just like a superhero, you could aim your power at anything you want to change in your life? The good news is: you do have that power. Most of us think of unconditional love as an emotion; however, it is in fact the sensation we feel when we are channeling our power. Odille specializes in training people from all walks of life to tune in to their power; fill themselves with unconditional love first, and then aim the power at specific people, situations and issues. Her simple exercises and techniques are designed to guide the reader from beginner to expert superhero. Feedback for YOU HAVE A SUPERPOWER: "Learning to send unconditional love to those parts of me that were causing me to experience fear, guilt, anger- and creating havoc in my relationships was powerful stuff, life altering! I finally understand how to channel my power through unconditional love! I love knowing that I can direct my power at anyone or any situation and change my reality in any way I choose! I love feeling my power surge through me as I experience the feeling of unconditional love!!! (I HAVE HAD TO PRACTICE AND PRACTICE THIS LOLOL BUT I FINALLY GOT IT!!!)" - Cheryl Fitzpatrick, Connecticut "I just wanted to say thank you thank you thank you for teaching me unconditional love!!! My life changed like crazy. I've used unconditional love on so many experiences and it worked 100%. It took a bit of time at first but then I got it and it worked. I changed the way everyone at school treats me (like everyone) and I got really successful at everything. I'm getting straight A's and best of all I'm not being bullied. I changed everyone that didn't like me before, it's like I'm in another world and I love it!" - Jessica Fontana, Toronto

Power, Politics, and Change
Author: Osho
Publisher: Macmillan
ISBN: 0312595468
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 183
Book Description
Power, Politics, and Change takes on the conventional wisdom that "power corrupts" and proposes instead that those who seek power are already corrupt: Once they attain their goal, their corruption simply has the opportunity to express itself. That's why even those who seek power in order to bring about radical change so often fail, despite their best intentions. Osho looks at where this "will to power" comes from, how it expresses itself not only in political institutions, but in our everyday relationships. In the process, he offers a vision of relationships and society based not on power over others, but on a recognition of the uniqueness of every individual.Power, Politics, and Change includes an original talk by Osho on DVD. This visual component enables the reader to experience the direct wisdom and humor of Osho straight from the source.The Osho Life Essentials series focuses on the most important questions in the life of the individual. Each volume contains timeless and always-contemporary investigations and discussions into questions vital to our personal search for meaning and purpose, focusing on questions specific to our inner life and quality of existence.
