What happens when we die? Does the light just go out and that's thatthe million-year nap? Or will some part of my personality, my me-ness persist? What will that feel like? What will I do all day? Is there a place to plug in my lap-top?" In an attempt to find out, Mary Roach brings her tireless curiosity to bear on an array of contemporary and historical soul-searchers: scientists, schemers, engineers, mediums, all trying to prove (or disprove) that life goes on after we die. She begins the journey in rural India with a reincarnation researcher and ends up in a University of Virginia operating room where cardiologists have installed equipment near the ceiling to study out-of-body near-death experiences. Along the way, she enrolls in an English medium school, gets electromagnetically haunted at a university in Ontario, and visits a Duke University professor with a plan to weigh the consciousness of a leech. Her historical wanderings unearth soul-seeking philosophers who rummaged through cadavers and calves' heads, a North Carolina lawsuit that established legal precedence for ghosts, and the last surviving sample of "ectoplasm" in a Cambridge University archive.
Your body is a magnificent living, self-healing ecosystem that is under siege by toxic man-made chemicals. Our connection with nature is being disrupted at the "quorum" cell language level of microbes so we cannot maintain clean, healthy ecosystem functions. Did you know that your cells are hardwired for superhealing at the quorum cell level, a level ten times more powerful than stem cells-and that the future of our victory over disease in this dominant medical-profit system depends on your restoring the ability of your cells to talk to one another? Quorum Superhealing puts together a sober picture of how man-made chemicals are disrupting quorum cell-to-cell communication so you stay overweight, inflamed and sick. Dr. Paul Yanick, who survived two nearly-fatal diseases, reveals the shocking truth of how man-made pharmaceuticals and chemicals shut down his kidneys at the age of twenty and evoked near-fatal cancer. At the brink of death, he saved his life by restoring the quorum language of cells. His terrifying experiences became the catalyst for decades of research and this book which tells an amazing story of how some of the worst, most-feared diseases can be conquered by restoring quorum superhealing.
This fascinating and insightful tour through present-day meetings of Spiritualists, UFOlogists, and dowsers illuminates our obsession with the paranormal and challenges the misunderstanding of the paranormal as a marginal or inconsequential feature of America's religious landscape. According to a 2005 Gallup poll, 75 percent of Americans believe in some form of paranormal activity. The United States has had a collective fascination with the paranormal since the mid-1800s, and it remains an integral part of our culture. Haunted Ground: Journeys through a Paranormal America examines three of the most vibrant paranormal gatherings in the United States-Lily Dale, a Spiritualist summer camp; the Roswell UFO Festival; and the American Society of Dowsers' annual convention of "water witches"-to explore and explain the reasons for our obsession with the paranormal. Both academically informed and thoroughly entertaining, this book takes readers on a "road trip" through our nation, guided by professor of American religion Darryl V. Caterine, PhD. The author interprets seemingly unrelated case studies of phantasmagoria collectively as an integral part of the modern discourse about "nature" as ultimate reality. Along the way, Dr. Caterine reveals how Americans' interest in the paranormal is rooted in their anxieties about cultural, political, and economic instability-and in a historic sense of alienation and homelessness. Chronologies focusing on the main developments in Spiritualist, UFOlogical, and dowsing history Photographs of materials, culture, and events at Lily Dale, the Roswell UFO Festival, and The American Society of Dowsers annual convention taken by the author A bibliography of authoritative scholarly works, primary texts, and theoretical frameworks pertinent to the study of Spiritualism, UFOlogy, and dowsing

The book is about a dream of mankind- the dream to live in "peacetime." After many conflicts and wars, in 1901 the humans initiated actions to materialize the dream. But unfortunately, the dream is still a dream after more than one hundred years. Time is nothing but realizing things in succession and is a condition and cause of conditions. Peace time is a mental phenomena and its measuring system is derived from functioning of solar system and cosmological units. The dream is to promulgate 28 days 13 months moon civil calendar which is a perfect, rational, uniform, regular and harmonious time calendar. This provides appropriate impulses to human minds for peaceful responses and to create a peace time culture. The book designs the Peace Calendar with names of 13 months of the year; each month promoting different moral values (as components of Peace) to mould the human minds towards "peacetime." The book also highlights the present problem of violence, terror and meltdowns in economic, social and environmental sectors in each of the 13 months. The UN is urged upon to take quick decision for fulfillment of the dream to save the humanity from large scale destruction and to switch over from the present "miserable time" to "peace time" by 2012-13, the cut off year for the beginning of holocaust in human civilization.

Providence: The Journey, the Discovery and the Destination is a true story. It is an inspirational story that depicts the revelations that a man named William Francis experienced over the course of his life. William came to realize how the LORD GOD was working in his life; finally understanding why HE led him through what he perceived to be deserts and wildernesses at various stages of his life.

Along the way he makes discoveries that enhance his and his familys lives through divine revelations about where God was leading him...his destination. Williams journey began at a very young age. His was the journey of a restless soul whose destination would be the discovering of the truth about the real JESUS. In the process, he discovers the truth about himself and his true purpose in life. William would encounter many trials, tribulations and disappointments on his journey, but he would ultimately come to a place of acceptance with himself. And eventually he would come to experience a genuine personal relationship with GOD; a relationship which produced times of happiness and joy, perpetual love and internal peace of mind, and relief of conscience even in times of crisis. In hindsight, William realized that GOD was guiding and directing his path. All the while, GOD was teaching him how to live a fulfilled life. Though some of the lessons were hard learned, it was all for his good.
