To serve the evolution of consciousness and the realisation of true spirituality, sex - both as psychological impulse and as raw drive - must be purified of misuse and coercive force and refined into an enlightened and flexible substance. Likewise, the crystallised unconscious fixations of karma must be transmuted. This book, based on and including some of the practices from Reyo's Karma and Sexuality workshops, is the most complete guide available on the inner dynamics of human relationships and how this alchemical transformation might come about. It analyses the structural foundations of the mind and the physical organism - as well as higher mind or consciousness - in light of modern physics and psychological thought. This is the best of Freud wedded to the best of Jung and modern mysticism. The book's overtones are tantric, while its spirit is profoundly humanitarian and ecological, advocating the need for brotherhood and unity, and a more loving consciousness in which the truly earthly is indeed divine.
Spanning three thousand years and five major cultures, the traditions of Eastern philosophy play a major role in any study of human thought today; to ignore the East is to miss the valuable insights of philosophers from the Persian, Indian, Chinese, Tibetan and Japanese traditions.

The author reveals here the wisdom of the East, from Avicenna to Zoroaster, from Buddha to Gandhi. Entries cover not only the philosophers themselves but also the philosophical terms and concepts, the historical background, the doctrines, teachings and writings of the East. Whether we wish to consult the I Ching, to understand Zen koan, or to read from the Upanishads, this volume will be a valuable tool in our quest.
When 11-year-old Olivia meets an old woman walking on the beach who claims to be God, her first doubts arise simply because she has always been told that God is a man. But when 'Miss God' asks for her help in writing Ten Commandments to give them meaning in the modern world, she starts to think in different ways. What should she put in her list? What would you put in yours? And if the old woman isn't God, why does her hot chocolate taste so divine? Miss God is a book that makes you question your own beliefs, while at the same time inviting you to believe in something. It is a book about two people, young and unimaginably old, spending an afternoon talking about life, looking out to sea, and finding new ways to interpret old wisdoms.

Jare se gewoontes, die verlede se stories en herhalende emosionele patrone bring mee dat die meeste van ons vasgevang sit binne ons eie droomwreld. Hier beleef en herleef ons dieselfde storie oor en oor, alhoewel die karakters en dekor soms verander. Binne hierdie droomstorie, of sekerlik eerder nagmerrie, is ons vasgevang. Dit is lyding, dit is hel. Daar is gelukkig ‘n weg (Tao) uit die doolhof van hierdie skynlewe, en dit is: word wakker. Dan hoef jy nie eens te wonder hoe om die droomstorie te probeer oplos of hoe om die karakters te benader nie; nee, jy word eenvoudig wakker en jou hele droomwreld tuimel ineen. Presies wat Abel Pienaar in hierdie boek met jou wil deel. ‘n Gids na wakker word, innerlike vryheid en lewensgeluk.

When everything goes wrong and you feel like giving up, Dr. John F. Westfall shows how to survive the storms of life with courage, faith, and surprising joy. So many things have the power to change our lives dramatically--loss, fear, betrayal, failure. When everything goes wrong in life, it's so easy to give in to the pain, frustration, and anger that threaten to overwhelm us. Though we may feel like giving up, there is life--abundant, exciting, and fulfilling--after our world gets turned upside down. In fact, says John Westfall, it's often in the face of fear and loss that we truly learn to live with courage, faith, and surprising joy. Westfall speaks from experience. He may have pretended everything was fine, but inside he was beaten down, burdened, and aching for freedom from the depression that gripped him after a sudden loss. Through his own story, the stories of others, and wisdom from Scripture, Westfall shares with readers the peace of acceptance, the pleasure of release, and the power of risk. Joy can be ours, even after devastating events. This book lights the way to a bright and new beginning.
This book is a guide to using numerology for practical and spiritual guidance. It’s attractive to look at with many diagrams showing how the different numbers relate to each other and where they fit on the Kabbalistic Tree of Life. Beautiful Hebrew letters are used throughout and, once you have worked out your own number, there is a wealth of information on the different nuances of meaning associated with it. Just reading each entry is a profound experience. The basic text for the 22 seed-numbers plus the quotations in this book reflect the numerological outlook and philosophy of the Essenes, the mystical cult in the Holy Land, to which belonged Christ and John the Baptist. Its traces are seen in the Old and New Testaments and in the so-called Gnostic Gospels. The purpose of The Sacred Numbers of Initiation is to inspire you and give you an idea of the spiritual qualities and potentials you are carrying with you in this incarnation. When you are aware of them, you can evolve and manifest them. Simply put, the words attached to the numbers inspire you to “walk the talk”.
When, unpredictably and against his will, Robert Monroe began to have out-of-body experiences, he was frightened and disbelieving. He found that he could leave his physical body to places far removed from the material and spiritual realities of life on earth. He came to inhabit a world unbounded by death or time. As Robert Monroe met many other people who have had similar experiences and read the literature of the East that documents the long history of this phenomenon, his fears were alleviated. His journeys became more frequent and began to change his life. This classic, first-hand account of out-of-body experiences challenges us to revise our ideas about life and death. Robert Monroe's step-by-step instructions invite the reader to initiate their own out-of-body experiences.
