A Chinese Taoist book about meditation, this book was first
translated by Richard Wilhelm (also translator, in the 1920s, of
the Chinese philosophical classic the I Ching). Wilhelm, was
German, and his translations from Chinese to German were later
translated to English by Cary F. Baynes. According to Wilhelm,
LuDongbin was the main originator of the material presented in the
book suggests that the material is from Quanzhen School founder
Wang Chongyang, a student of Lu Dongbin). More recently (2013), the
same work has been translated by Pei Yeing and published by Ancient
Wisdom Publications. Since the original (now, public domain) work
is a Chinese translation from German, it is strongly suggested that
this work should be considered as an alternative resource for any
serious practitioner. The translator of this work is a lifetime
practitioner of meditation is currently living in Shanghai, China
but a Malaysian Chinese by birth.
Shawn wrote this book based upon his life experiences as a
struggling business owner trying to remain spiritually grounded in
2013. His personal relations with an angel appearing as his
ex-girlfriend had a profound impact on his life. He felt driven to
share this unique story with the world. He lives eight months out
of the year in Homer Glen, Illinois. The extended winter months, he
lives at different locations in Hawaii. His personal life is always
an adventure. He enjoys spending time with the angels, while doing
his best to stay on a clairvoyant path. Dream and reality merge,
and "Dreamality" forms while experiencing God's pace in his
life.

A Wolf Song is a healing story about a multidimensional, dual-life
journey of tragedy, gratitude and forgiveness. Its key
characters-Hanna and Margaret; their "spirit" wolves, Nano and
Nala; family members; and teacher Trudy Goodenough-meet every ten
years under Trudy's guidance and the wolves' whims. The story
begins at childbirth; the girls meet nearing their tenth birthday
and discover their wolf spirits under a jump rope. Each chapter
contains a verse which reveals the lessons of each chapter. Ordered
to meet every ten years by the wolves, Hanna and Margaret meet at
twenty in Wales and in New York City at thirty. Nano and Nala are
not necessarily balanced. Their karmic rites spill over into the
young women's lives. One of the wolf spirits wreaks havoc at a
public event, and a battle between light and darkness ensues. "Lisa
Osina's book brings you into an enduring balance between the
physical world and the world of spirit." Lynn Andrews, shaman and
author of Medicine Woman and 27 other spiritual and
self-empowerment books.
The most important aspect of our existence is that every living
thing is subject to two forms of evolutionary trends. One is
physical, which deals with the investigation of nature by means of
science and technology. The other is spiritual, which requires an
investigation of nature through perceptive power, commonly achieved
through meditative practices.
In "Spiritual Wisdom, author Ramesh Malhotra explores the
evolution of the attainment of spiritual knowledge and inner
tranquility and peace. Through practical examples of how to apply
these spiritual principles to everyday life, he provides insight
into the four tenets of eternal wisdom: mythological wisdom,
inspirational wisdom, transcendental wisdom, and absolute truth. He
provides an overview of the history of spiritual wisdom, the
elements of lower and higher knowledge, and the process of
self-revitalization.
Providing an in-depth investigation and discussion of the
spiritual knowledge and guidance found within the Bhagavad Gita,
Malhotra encourages further exploration of spiritual wisdom and
enlightenment in order to bring peace, tranquility, and happiness
to every life journey.
In "Retha's Song: A Rhapsody of the Soul, "Retha hears her
"God," the sun, speak to her for the first time at the age of
seven. He speaks of a baby boy being born who lived far away from
her and is her beloved. As long as she listens to God's voice and
stays on her path and the young boy stays on his path, with God's
guidance, they will meet.
She strays many times from the voice of God and her path. During
the journey, she is struck with a devastating Bipolar Disorder, and
her young son is diagnosed with Crohn's disease, which nearly took
his life. Her faith began taking new direction, and she began
experiencing phenomenal supernatural events in her life. Her
intuition became increasingly powerful; however, internal,
mind-altering suffering kept plaguing her.
Music, directed by the angels, was the compelling force that was
the interwoven thread that could bring these two souls together, as
they are both singers and songwriters. Could a miracle happen?
