An insider's look into the events surrounding the Nickel Mines
Amish schoolhouse shootings--told by the counselor who was called
upon to come to the farmhouse where the families met on that
fateful day.On October 2, 2006, Charles Roberts, a local milk-tank
truck driver, bound and shot ten young girls in an Amish
schoolhouse before committing suicide. Five girls died. Five others
were severely injured and left in critical condition. In the
aftermath of the massacre, the Amish community shunned the media.
But they requested that Amish-raised counselor Jonas Beiler come to
the scene to offer his moral and spiritual support. In Think No
Evil, Beiler offers his first-person account of the events, as well
as of those who were closest to the scene: the surviving children,
the volunteer fireman Rob Beiler, the local counseling center
director Brad Aldricha, and Vietta Zook, aboard the first ambulance
to arrive. Beiler poignantly describes the Amish families'
responses to this horrific violence as they reached out to the
shocked family members of the killer, offering unconditional
forgiveness. The story didn't end on that horrible day with the
deaths of those five little girls. Think No Evil follows the
ongoing story of this gentle community having faith in God's
design, of truly demonstrating Christian values, of responding with
resilient love in the face of evil, of demolishing the scene of the
murders and rebuilding the schoolhouse, and of determining to move
forward in living out their faith in peace.

An ancient conversation for a modern audience - anyone who has ever
asked 'what is the purpose of life? or 'who am I?' will find
something in this book. The Bhagavad Gita has been around a long
time, but remains little known outside India. This edition sets out
to change that. The ancient Gita is a world text dealing with the
mysteries of life. At its heart is a conversation between the soul
and God. Ranchor Prime's version adopts a non-sectarian approach,
making the Gita relevant to those of all religions or none, and
emphasising the link between religion and self-development. It is
distinguished by its easy accessibility. His section-by-section
commentary opens the text to the spiritual seeker. He never loses
sight of the audience for his book, and that he wants his readers
to understand the Gita in a personal way.
"Amame dentro de ti. Porque yo estoy dentro de ti. En cada parte de
ti, en cada celula, yo estoy ahi. Y solamente cuando entras en
contacto profundo contigo mismo es que entras en contacto profundo
conmigo. Y solamente cuando te amas eternamente es que consigues
amarme eternamente. Yo estare siempre aqui." -- Jesus
