Do places where violent deaths occur somehow absorb the horror,
only to conjure up images that haunt the living for generations to
come? Many people believe that this can indeed happen; above all,
in the context of that manmade phenomenon that reaps so great a
toll in so short a time: War. Haunted U.S. Battlefields takes us on
a spine-tingling tour of America's most legendary spectral scenes
of human struggle-from the Revolutionary War to the Civil War, from
the Indian Wars to World War II and beyond. As America's bloodiest
conflict, the Civil War has yielded the greatest number of ghostly
sightings. Hence, most of the twenty-five battlefield legends this
book relates are from this era-whether the myriad strange spectral
happenings associated with Gettysburg, or this war's lesser known
but equally tragic events. Summing up the eerie essence of wartime
scenes across America-many of which today host popular ghost
tours-Haunted U.S. Battlefields is a must for students of the
paranormal, Civil War buffs, and all others interested in a
spine-chilling realm of military history that the history books
don't dare tell.
There is a mystical quality to the land and sky in New Mexico.
Places with long histories, such as New Mexico, breed superstition,
carrying the memories, stories, and beliefs of those who have
passed before. The state is such a notoriously superstitious place
that real estate agencies post notices about whether a house is
"truly" haunted, with pseudo-legal discussions about the need to
disclose this information publicly. There is a haunted State
Monument in Lincoln County, and a lovelorn ghost wanders through
one of the state's national parks. There are ghosts who are
friendly and fearsome. Stories that have become fables, and others
that are fully believed. Haunted New Mexico will occasionally ask
you to suspend belief, showing those cracks between what is real
and imagined.
Do you claim that your health is a priority, but neglect doing
anything about it? Most people know they should eat right and
exercise, but for many individuals the motivation to do this is
missing. Time constraints, work and family obligations, financial
struggles, mental stress, depression, addictions, and a host of
other issues get in the way. If we can't manage our lifestyle well,
then managing our health becomes all the more challenging. There is
not a unified process within the current public health education
system to teach healthy behaviors, or to promote all dimensions of
our well-being-in mind, body and spirit. This failure has created a
global health care crisis. We can see the effects in record
numbers; an epidemic of adults and children who are overweight or
obese. The Proactive Health Solution (PHS) is the missing link in
health care reform. By teaching individuals how to apply the PHS
principles, they can learn to become proactive rather than reactive
with their health. We can put a halt to this global pandemic. The
PHS provides the educational roadmap to empower anyone toward this
healthy lifestyle transformation.
In the memoir Defying the Odds, Urduja Dela Cueva chronicles her
fascinating life story, opening with her journey from the
Philippines to America where she begins a new chapter with the love
of her life. After meeting Ralph, a handsome Navy Officer, at the
United States Naval Base in Subic Bay, Urduja made the agonizing
choice to leave her three children and extended family behind in
the Philippines and immigrate to the United States in 1969. After
she marries Ralph in a simple wedding ceremony at City Hall in
Norfolk, Virginia, Ralph lands a new job on Wall Street that
promises a bright future for their family. As Urduja encounters
challenge after challenge, she tells the story of how she obtained
a permanent visa, found steady work, and took courses at New York
University, all while experiencing frightening, foretelling
nightmares every night while she slept. Urduja's true and
fascinating story proves that one woman can defy all odds and still
win in the end through the power of faith and God's word.
"FOLLOWING THE LIGHT" is a guide in practical theology. Theology
pertains to the field of study and analysis that examines the
God-consciousness: its attributes and relationship to the universe.
Included in this book are examples of divine happenings, which
establish religious truths or enlightenment. Finally, this book
discusses how "FOLLOWING THE LIGHT" can help enrich our
understanding of Theology as it applies to our daily lives.
"FOLLOWING THE LIGHT" describes how everything we do or experience
is intertwined and affects our personal development. It discusses
how metaphysics, psychology, physics, paranormal activity, and
parapsychology interact with each other as they relates to our
Divine-essence, or Spirit, from its beginning through completion.
Further, we examine some common beliefs and misconceptions as they
relate to modern scientific studies that follow metaphysical
principles and practices. The author has included some of his
personal experiences as examples. Rev. Klaman had been meditating,
praying, and studying --with a burning desire for the answers to
his questions: Who or what is God? Why are we here? Moreover, how
do Jesus, Moses, the Bible, parapsychology, paranormal activity,
and science fit into this puzzle? He devoted his life to finding
the answers, but little did he know he was about to receive them in
a big way More than ever before, people today are asking important
questions about theology that need and deserve answers. Identifying
and answering those questions is the purpose of this book. This
book provides the reader an opportunity to receive the benefit of
learning the truth about God and our purpose in life, including how
science, the paranormal, and other pieces of the puzzle all fit
together. You will learn that this life is your creation; enjoy it
while "FOLLOWING THE LIGHT"
Thrilling stories of supernatural occurrences in Connecticut,
including the curse on Dudleytown, the spirit of Hanna Cranna who
causes car crashes in Monroe, the phantom black dog of Meriden,
buried-alive Midnight Mary, the lost village of Bara-Hack, and many
more.
The eastern side of the Smokies abounds with spooky tales, like the
story of a Shadow Woman who appeared to a farmer each morning and
evening to beg for a cup of milk. Skinned Tom is another East
Tennessee haunt, though his is a sinister tale that warns the
unfaithful to steer clear of local lover's lanes for their illicit
trysting. From the farmer who finds a Cavern of Skulls to a
moonshiner who makes a deal with a water demon; and the Half Shaved
ghost seeking vengeance to the first (and only) meeting of the
Asheville Ghost Club, the Great Smoky Mountains and its foothills
abound with spooky tales. My favorites are in this collection.
I have always said, "What you are seeking, is also seeking you "
These are some things I have seen and experienced over the first 50
years of my life. My Dad got to be 91 years of age, I would like to
get to one hundred and still be healthy. It is hard to deny
something when you see it with your own eyes or feel it when it
touches you.
In life, everyone at some time or another will experience what is
commonly referred to as problems. Moving Mountains is a manual of
sorts to assist people in the removal of life's problems. This
removal process occurs by first looking at some commonly held
beliefs and ideas held by our society. Secondly this removal occurs
by realizing that a shift in perception is needed. As the reader
continues to read and walk through the journey laid out in the
pages of the book the task of noticing and in time changing
existing paradigms will become the number one mission. This mission
allows the reader to realize that the mountains in life (problems,
challenges, issues and traumas) are blessings that can be used as
stepping stones to greater awareness and increase one's ability to
live a sacred life. The book guides the reader through the process
of personal transformation by challenging what is believed and what
the reader feels is known with various ideas and concepts that the
author has found over years of study to be of immeasurable value
and use, so that the mountains can be moved just as Jesus the
Christ said in Matthew 17:20, "if you have faith as small as a
mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to
there' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you."
This book is a prophetic peek into the heart of this author,
through the eyeglass of his mind, reasoning, belief, and faith. The
laughter and lamentations expressed herein are blatant examples of
how poetry can shed a light of revelation on the unknown, reveal
the hidden wisdom of the most darkest of hours lived by the
misguided fool, and tell a story a lot better than a painting worth
a thousand words. This is a mental diary-like manuscript compiled
of emotions, moods, experiences of the heart, prophetic visions,
relationship rules, and ethereal thoughts all fueled by
Allah-inspired direction and written to and for those who have only
silenced their minds in order to become aware of His presence in
them and of the presence of the storms that are forever raging in
us and around us. These are writings and songs of joy,
encouragement, and inspiration sometimes painted with warning and
other times shaded with the answers to the "why's" that often
pester our consciousness and unconsciousness. Finally, this book is
a formal invitation to the reader. It is a request for your company
that you might journey with the author outside of the realms of
this soul-plane to a Spiritual plane, elevating from this level
where man strives to be "man with god" to a level where we here,
are ascending to be "God in Man."
Sacred Lessons from Heaven to Help Us Fulfill Our True Purpose,
from the Bestselling Author of Saved by the Light
In 1975, Dannion Brinkley was struck and killed by lightning.
When he awoke in a morgue twenty-eight minutes later, everything
was forever changed. Over the next twenty years, Brinkley had not
one, but two more near-death experiences. Now, in Secrets from the
Light, he shares the lessons he learned in the afterlife so we,
too, can fulfill our true purpose in life. With wit, humor, and
compassion, Brinkley shows that by living the way Heaven intends,
you will find happiness in this life and beyond.
As children, most of us freely express the joy-the music-within us.
Our emotions are close to the surface, and we can bring them forth
at the drop of a hat. But as we become adults, the joy seems to get
buried deeper and deeper. Real life can take the music from our
very being. But does it have to be that way? Is there anything we
can do about it? In The Musical Soul Train: Discover the Songs from
Your Heart, author Philip "PM" Moey shares his knowledge and
experiences of life's spiritual pathways. Moey's fifteen years of
research has taught him that though there are many universal
principles about life, many are fundamentally the same but
approached from different angles. The paths eventually lead to a
single life worth living if you choose to do it well. And to live
well, you cannot allow the music to die within you. Moey includes
his personal musical flavor, but that does not mean it has to be
ours; he reminds us that each of us has a song to be sung and
showcased. The Musical Soul Train will thrill anyone who longs to
tell his or her own story and anyone who is looking for a more
meaningful, inspired life.
This work consists of displaying some of the Essays I wrote during
my studies in Theology. It is really intended to help some students
