channeled message of love, and an affirmation to implement the
message of the card in your life. Cards include Programming Your
Highest Intentions, Vision Questing, Karmic Forgiveness, Spiritual
DNA, and Melody of Thought. Designed to be felt rather than
intellectually experienced, the symbols on the cards are your
mentors and offer profound insights to help you along your path.

are held in the heart of Divine love.

A complete, illustrated guide to the ancient tradition of reading
the face to gain insight into health, personality, relationships,
and career The face is a unique reflection of our genetic,
inherited inclinations as well as the effects that life, nature,
and relationships have had upon us. By looking at a person's face,
you can gain valuable insight into their personality, health, and
how they navigate in the world. In this illustrated guide, Jennifer
Lamonica reveals the sacred tradition of face morphology, an
esoteric system that has been passed quietly from rabbi to student
as an unbroken oral tradition for more than 4,500 years. She
explores the history and development of this ancient art from its
origins in Israel and Egypt to its use as the major diagnostic
system in Europe until the Enlightenment and its current
applications in French medical schools. Sharing the techniques of
master face readers, the author details how to read the angles of
the profile, as well as palm color and nose shape, to determine a
person's temperament, providing health and career insight into each
of the four temperaments, including nutritional needs, digestive
issues, sleep patterns, health predispositions, and ideal
occupational paths. Exploring the Foursquare diagram, developed by
French occultist Papus, for highly accurate and detailed facial
readings, she explains how to read the front face in combination
with planetary shapes, which reveal a person's character; the major
facial features, such as eyebrows, which reveal personal
inclinations; and the musculature of the face, including
expressions, which reveals a person's current mental state.
Providing case studies, she examines how to apply face morphology
in relationships and in parenting. Exploring the meaning of each
facial variation, while also honoring the intuitive impression
received at first glance, Lamonica reveals how the ancient science
of face reading allows you to compassionately help your loved ones,
students, or clients, as well as overcome personal obstacles and
better know yourself.
Radu Cinamar stunned the world when he released his first book,
"Transylvanian Sunrise", which described the greatest
archaeological find of all time: a hidden chamber some 50,000 years
old with beneath the Romanian Sphinx in the Bucegi Mountains. This
chamber includes holographic technology with a visual data bank of
infinite DNA permutations in addition to three tunnels: one leading
to the inner earth, one to Tibet and one to Egypt. After being
allowed to explore some of these artefacts, Radu was befriended by
an enigmatic alchemist named Elinor who introduced him to an
equally mysterious Tibetan Lama. This book begins with Radu
becoming the guardian of Elinor's exotic villa in Bucharest which
contains a remarkable alchemical laboratory in the basement. Radu
is soon thereafter recruited for Department Zero, Romania's most
secret intelligence unit, by his old friend, Cezar Brad, and
becomes part of an expedition to explore a mysterious tunnel which
leads from the chamber beneath the Romanian Sphinx to a different
type of chamber beneath the Giza Plateau which contains ancient
artefacts that look more futuristic than they do ancient, one of
them being a bioresonant device through which one can visit past
and future events. This amazing expedition includes an American
from the Pentagon with a top secret laptop computer he is
intuitively connected to that not only displays intricate holograms
but is also linked to Hilbert (inter-dimensional) Space. Ancient
archeology meets future science in this true life adventure that
penetrates the secrets of Egypt in a way that has not been
previously conceived of in our society.
* Explores the intimate connections between specific sounds and
syllables, the 7 chakras and their corresponding psychological
traits * Provides toning exercises using these seed sounds to
re-tune and purify the chakras, leading to spiritual transformation
and wholeness as energetic blockages and negative states are
dissipated * Includes a 66-minute CD to guide you through each
exercise and the toning of each chakra's sounds Using the Sacred
Alphabet-the universal sounds of all languages-sound-healing
teacher, James D'Angelo, explores the intimate connections between
vowel, consonant and syllable combinations, each of the 7 chakras
and their corresponding psychological traits. He explains, for
example, how the vowel sound "uh" connects to the root chakra and
is found in such words as "support" and "trust," words deeply
linked to the emotional character of this chakra. Revealing the
voice as the master instrument for transformation-attested by the
spiritual traditions that use chanting as an aid to
enlightenment-he provides an extensive selection of vocal exercises
to re-tune and purify each chakra and dissipate any related
negative states as well as exercises that incorporate multiple
chakras for general well-being. The accompanying 66-minute CD
guides you through each exercise and the proper toning of each
chakra's sounds. In uniting these sacred seed sounds with their
corresponding chakras and psychologies, the author shows how you
can enhance the power of these syllables and purposefully harness
them for healing, states of deep meditation and spiritual
development. By bringing you closer to the voice of the absolute,
your own voice can be the conduit to the blissful union the soul so
deeply desires.
Brought to you by Penguin. Following the bestselling retellings of
the Greek myths in Mythos and Heroes, Stephen Fry's bewitching
third volume Troy - concerning love and war, passion and power - is
now ready for ordering. The story of Troy speaks to all of us - the
kidnapping of Helen, a queen celebrated for her beauty, sees the
Greeks launch a thousand ships against the city of Troy, to which
they will lay siege for ten whole and very bloody years. It is
Zeus, the king of the gods, who triggers the war when he asks the
Trojan prince Paris to judge the fairest goddess of them all.
Aphrodite bribes Paris with the heart of Helen, wife of King
Menelaus of the Greeks, and, naturally, nature takes its course. It
is a terrible, brutal war with casualties on all sides as well as
strained relations between allies. The Greek's most fearsome
warrior, Achilles, argues with King Agamemnon, his commander, over
another woman, the Trojan slave Briseis. The consequences lead to
terrible tragedies. In Troy you will find heroism and hatred, love
and loss, revenge and regret, desire and despair. It is these human
passions, written bloodily in the sands of a distant shore, that
still speak to us today. It is a myth in which we seek the truth
about ourselves and which Stephen Fry brings breathtakingly to
life. Praise for Heroes and Mythos: 'Ebullient and funny' The Times

past become relatable as pop culture, modern literature and music

Renowned researcher Dawson Church examines stunning scientific
evidence that shows how, in just eight weeks of practice, 12
minutes a day, we can produce measurable changes in our brains that
make us calmer, happier and more resilient. The startling
conclusions of Dawson's research on neuroplasticity show that
stress circuits actually shrivel over time while our 'Enlightenment
Circuit' - associated with happiness, productivity, resilience -
expands. In this book, he explores how deep meditation releases
'the 7 neurochemicals of ecstasy' in our brains; some of these
include the 'bliss molecule' anandamide, which boosts serotonin and
dopamine, creating a self-induced high. Our brain literally has the
power to make us feel happier, calmer, more creative and
compassionate. While writing Bliss Brain, Dawson went through a
series of disasters, including escaping a California wildfire that
consumed his home and triggered a painful medical condition as well
as financial disaster for him. Through it all, he steadily
practised the techniques of Bliss Brain while teaching them to
thousands of people. This book blends his story of resilience with
neuroscience, producing a fascinating picture of just how happy we
can make our brains, no matter the odds.
What is it about quotes that make them so powerful, and widely
loved around the world? Maybe because they are small messages from
the heart, that give us peace of mind. Powerful, touching quotes
can give you just that little push in the right direction, comfort
you in hard times and even have the ability to inspire you and
create new horizons. We have always been inspired by quotes, and we
love to live and work with them every day. And if they inspire us
in this way, they probably do the same for many people around the
world. This is what gave us the idea to make a collection of
quotes, so that we can be surrounded by them in everything that we
do. That's why we created this series of books and cards. So you
get to inspire yourself whenever you need it, and you can give the
gift of inspiration to others. Share these beautiful quotes with
everyone who needs a little push, or words of comfort,
encouragement, inspiration or LOVE. We selected these quotes on
love with love, for you.
An exploration of the chemical, biological, psychological, and
experiential dimensions of ayahuasca
- Details the scientific discovery of ayahuasca's sophisticated
psychoactive delivery system in the brain and body and its
potential applications in medicine and psychology
- Includes contributions from Dennis J. McKenna, Ph.D., J. C.
Callaway, Ph.D., and Charles S. Grob, M.D., on the
ethnopharmacology, psychology, phytochemistry, and
neuropharmacology of ayahuasca
- Provides 24 firsthand accounts of ayahuasca experiences and
resulting life changes
Widely recognized by anthropologists as the most powerful and
widespread shamanic hallucinogen, ayahuasca has been used by native
Indian and mestizo shamans in Peru, Colombia, and Ecuador for
healing and divination for thousands of years. Made from the
Amazonian vine "Banisteriopsis caapi" and the DMT-laden leaf of
"Psychotria viridis," ayahuasca is regarded as the embodiment of
intelligent plant beings who can offer spiritual teachings and
healing knowledge to those who respectfully engage with them. Many
Western-trained physicians and psychologists now acknowledge that
ayahuasca allows access to spiritual dimensions of consciousness,
otherworldly realms and beings, and visionary experiences
indistinguishable from classic religious mysticism.
With contributions from leading psychoactive scholars Dennis J.
McKenna, Ph.D., Charles S. Grob, M.D., and J. C. Calloway, Ph.D.,
on the ethnopharmacology, psychology, phytochemistry, and
neuropharmacology of ayahuasca, Ralph Metzner provides a
comprehensive exploration of the chemical, biological,
psychological, and experiential dimensions of this Amazonian
hallucinogen. He includes more than 20 firsthand accounts from
people who have participated in ayahuasca rituals and experienced
major life changes as a result. He details the scientific discovery
of ayahuasca's sophisticated psychoactive delivery system in the
brain and body as well as the deep psychological impact of this
potent entheogen. He concludes with his own findings on ayahuasca,
including its applications in medicine and psychology, and compares
the worldview revealed by ayahuasca visions to that of modern
cultures.
Confronting and solving problems is a painful process which most of
us attempt to avoid. Avoiding resolution results in greater pain
and an inability to grow both mentally and spiritually. Drawing
heavily on his own professional experience, Dr M. Scott Peck, a
psychiatrist, suggests ways in which facing our difficulties - and
suffering through the changes - can enable us to reach a higher
level of self-understanding. He discusses the nature of loving
relationships: how to distinguish dependency from love; how to
become one's own person and how to be a more sensitive parent. This
is a book that can show you how to embrace reality and yet achieve
serenity and a richer existence. Hugely influential, it has now
sold over ten million copies - and has changed many people's lives
round the globe. It may change yours.
Guru - Mystic - Mother - Mad woman, who was she ? She was a woman
whose intense love of God consumed her to such a degree that she
abandoned her traditional role as wife and mother. She came from
one of India's foremost families, the much revered Tagore's. She
was beautiful, talented and highly creative. She was a gifted
artist and had an extraordinary voice but had no interest in
pursuing a career. Her entire life was a personal struggle between
her quest for God and the demands of family life. She was
mysterious and mystical, unconventional and detached. At the same
time there was something deeply moving and extraordinary about her
and her complete submission to 'Divine Madness'. A daughter's
compelling accounts of being a witness to the profound inner
changes that her mother goes through, this is the story of two
women and the spiritual paths they chose to take in life. While
those paths were different and at time divergent, they came
together in uniquely compelling ways. The charting of that
relationship, with all its joys and conflicts, the loss and the
pain and ultimately the healing and reconciliation, mirrors the
relationship of so many mothers and daughters.
