In Aliens and Angels II: The Beginning of the Seven Seals,
author Edward A. Marrero Laureano brings forgotten history into
view while illuminating the truth. Laureano-a visionary, space and
time traveler, and dreamer-discusses his journeys into the past in
order to correct history, to explain what really happened, and to
clarify why people change history for their benefit.
He investigates and exposes the secrets and mysteries that have
shrouded history since the beginning of the world, and he reveals
subjects that will transform the way humans perceive the universe.
Aliens and Angels sheds insights into an array of mysteries: Who is
the mysterious woman in the Mona Lisa painting? Where is the exact
location of Atlantis? What is the truth about Jesus Christ in the
Bible, hidden in plain sight? What is the origin and mechanics of
UFOs?
Aliens and Angels takes an extraordinary journey through space
and time, the past and the future, as Laureano reveals his
prophesies and revelations.
Every adult I have ever worked with has identified a broken, hurt
or disillusioned child memory within; "The Children in my Chair."
Susie had an intense phobia, Lucy was a compulsive over eater,
Valerie believed women are subservient and had no voice, Noreen
grew up with a lack mentality and was always broke, Erin never felt
good enough, Julie believed she was unlovable, Doug was angry all
the time and Katie distrusted her feelings and hide them inside.
How did this happen? We are living in a world full of people living
with shame, guilt, self blame, unhappiness, unworthiness, fear and
obligation that was originally put upon them' unconsciously
by their mentors and role models in early life. How we, as
innocent children, learn about and what we come to believe about
ourselves and about life are the teachings of this book.
We've been conditioned Conditioning begins with words we hear,
think and speak. This book is a simple call to presence for all
because everyone was once a child themselves. Take this
opportunity to; recognize your own conditioning; break the chains
of the past; learn what it is to be present; and learn how to
consciously use words that empower, inspire, support and encourage
both yourself and the children in your life now.
""The End-of-the-World Delusion" is a well-written, thoroughly
researched, and very readable book. Deering's lively narrative
makes complex and complicated topics accessible to the average
reader. He certainly pulled me into his book despite my cynical
view of the topic. Deering offers the reader riveting histories of
end-of-the world beliefs and covers an extraordinary array of
ground in this well-researched book, discussing everything from the
Mayan end-of-times predictions, Christian rapture beliefs,
pandemics, economic doomsday scenarios, and other apocalyptic
predictions."
-Robert Watson, PhD, author/editor of thirty-four books,
including "The Presidents' Wives" and "America's War on Terror"
People from many different corners of civilization seem to be
saying the same thing: the end is near. In The End-of-the-World
Delusion, author Justin Deering explores such scenarios, discussing
why they are not likely to occur or have any visible impact on this
planet within our lifetime.
Providing a thorough analysis, Deering chronicles the numerous
instances of such predictions throughout history, examines frequent
religious and cultural sources of these end-of-world claims,
analyzes the sociological and psychological dynamics and dangers,
and outlines other forms of end-times beliefs, ranging from
religious to pop culture in nature. The End-of-the-World Delusion
provides concrete information that helps evaluate these dubious
assertions, relates how such beliefs have harmed individuals and
society, and talks about why people are inclined to nurture such
beliefs in the first place.
Setting the record straight by detailing the history of failed
doomsdays, Deering shows that nothing can be gained by worrying
about the end of time, and that we must learn a lesson from the
past, live in the present, and plan for the future.
Nature mysteries are discovered and shared in the context of this
autobiography from a passionate nature lover. See and learn about
experiences you may not even be able to imagine. See amazing photos
you have never seen before. It is a story of love and hope with
answers to questions many never think of asking.

Xpiritual is a book on a pagan controversy of our days. Disguised
as the craze for "spiritual secrets" what we see today is the
revival of an age-old polemic: living with the hidden versus the
need to seize what is hidden. Surreptitious as the glance of Lot's
wife, the search for secrets is the denial of the hidden and the
emotional territory of the subliminal and privilege. Equating
sacred and the search for] secrets as antonyms, Rabbi Bonder
exposes forms of fetishism and idolatry in the mind-set of
consumerism and individualism. This neo-spirituality is portrayed
as pornographic in essence given it is based on the abuse of image
and self-absortion. Paganism is the attitude of affirming
self-value by means of anthropocentric strategies that always rely
either on rationalism or the esoteric. The former is manifest by
indulging in self-justification and self-validation and the latter
on subliminal ego messages infiltrated in the realm of the sacred.
Xpiritual is the presentation of simple and age-old wisdom with a
renewed inspiration for the spiritual quest of our time.
"Heal yourself and in doing so you will heal others. Feel their
pain; don't judge. Offer love and compassion; give of yourself, as
that is when you receive the most for yourself and your dreams"
"DIAL LOVE: God's Planetary Guide for Attaining Happiness
through Spiritual Fulfillment" is a collection of channeled work,
with each channeling conveying a message, one paragraph at a
time.

Lynn was preparing for a spiritual workshop when she began to hear
a comforting, gentle, and loving voice. "Heal yourself, and in
doing so you will heal others. Feel their pain; don't judge. Offer
love and compassion; give of yourself, as that is when you receive
the most for yourself and your dreams."
During the following four months, for sixteen consecutive
Wednesdays, Donna continued to receive messages of truth. "Dial
Love" is her endeavor to share those messages with you.
"Dial Love" provides simple truths about divinity and
spirituality. May you find an enlightened approach to the
fulfillment of your life's purpose. You are the miracle that is
waiting to happen. Now is the time to reset your frequency and
"Dial Love."
A marvelous book, at once comprehensive and highly readable, a
fascinating analysis of doomsday cults and apocalyptic anxiety.
--Michael Owen Jones, University of California, Los Angeles The End
of the World As We Know It makes accessible to both scholars and
general readers the amazing panorama of millenarian scenarios
abounding in America at the end of the millennium. --Robert S.
Ellwood, University of Southern California Will stand for some time
as the best survey and analysis of the meaning and place of
apocalypticism and millennialism in American culture. --Religion
and Literature Fascinating and] intelligent . . . should be
required reading. --Psychotronic From religious tomes to current
folk prophesies, recorded history reveals a plethora of narratives
predicting or showcasing the end of the world. The incident at
Waco, the subway bombing by the Japanese cult Aum Supreme Truth,
and the tragedy at Jonestown are just a few examples of such
apocalyptic scenarios. And these are not isolated incidents;
millions of Americans today believe the end of the world is
inevitable, either by a divinely ordained plan, nuclear
catastrophe, extraterrestrial invasion, or gradual environmental
decay, Examining the doomsday scenarios and apocalyptic predictions
of visionaries, televangelists, survivalists, and various other
endtimes enthusiasts, as well as popular culture, film, music,
fashion, and humor, Daniel Wojcik sheds new light on America's
fascination with worldly destruction and transformation. He
explores the origins of contemporary apocalyptic beliefs and
compares religious and secular apocalyptic speculation, showing us
the routes our belief systems have traveled over the centuries to
arrive at the dawn of a new millennium. Included in his sweeping
examination are premillennial prophecy traditions, prophecies
associated with visions of the Virgin Mary, secular ideas about
nuclear apocalypse, the transformation of apocalyptic prophecy in
the post-Cold War era, and emerging apocalyptic ideas associated
with UFOs and extraterrestrials. Timely, yet of lasting importance,
The End of the World as We Know It is a comprehensive cultural and
historical portrait of an age-old phenomenon and a fascinating
guide to contemporary apocalyptic fever. Daniel Wojcik is Associate
Professor of English and Folklore at the University of Oregon and
author of Punk and Neo-Tribal Body Art. He received his Ph.D. in
Folklore and Mythology from the University of California, Los
Angeles.
