In print since the 5th century BCE, 550 jataka tales comprise part of the oldest Buddhist text, the 'Pali Canon'. From this wealth of folklore, Rafe Martin has chosen ten tales that illustrate the ideals of the Buddhist paramitas, or 'perfections' of character.

"Light was Everywhere," poems by Richard Wehrman, brings together for the first time poetry previously shared only with a small number of individuals working, as he has, on paths of awakening, insight, and inner illumination. These poems always take as their touchstone the vibrant revealed earth, the rebirth of soul and spirit, and the continuous revelations of presence and awareness. A support for those who travel any difficult road, this small volume offers a confirmation of the challenges and rewards as we move towards spirit and open heart awareness. "Light was Everywhere" points us toward the beauty and support we are continually given by the world, and the growing recognition that what the Earth herself is, we are.
