Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Book excerpt: Hugh of Emblin is, so far as he's concerned, the worst student that the Academy at Skyhold has ever seen. He can barely cast any spells at all, and those he does cast tend to fail explosively. If that wasn't bad enough, he's also managed to attract the ire of the most promising student of his year- who also happens to be the nephew of a king. Hugh has no friends, no talent, and definitely doesn't expect a mage to choose him as an apprentice at all during the upcoming Choosing. When a very unexpected mage does choose him as apprentice, however, his life starts to take a sharp turn for the better. Now all he has to worry about is the final test for the first years- being sent into the terrifying labyrinth below Skyhold.

Book excerpt: The Havath Dominion is marching to war. Humiliated in the ruins of Imperial Ithos, the Exile Splinter stolen from their grasp by the ancient sphinx Kanderon Crux, Havath's Duarchs have assembled an army that dwarfs the entire population of Skyhold. Led by their Great Powers, monsters and mages individually capable of leveling a city, they pose a threat that even Kanderon, one of the mightiest of Great Powers, and her equally monstrous allies might be unable to stop. As the Havathi forces push closer and closer to Skyhold, Hugh and his friends train relentlessly, hoping to make a difference in the oncoming siege. While they venture into dangerous realms of untested experimental magic, though, they're already caught up in currents far beyond their control.

This book was released on 2018-03-15 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Message of His Holiness the Great 14th Dalai Lama I would like to express my deep appreciation and Tashi Delek to all of you for holding this 2nd International Conference on Body, Mind and Life. There are more than seven billion people on our earth and all of us desire to be mentally happy and physically healthy. Even a newly born baby wishes to be mentally happy and physically well so does an old dying person. Today right here, you as listeners and I as a speaker, all of us equally wish to be happy rather than sad! Naturally, we all desire happiness and we all have equal rights to achieve that happiness. Not only human beings, but also all the sentient beings who have consciousness want to be happy and avoid suffering. As Shantideva said, “all the sufferings that we experience are because of our selfishness and all the happiness that we gain are all because of wishing happiness for others.” If we examine properly, when one thinks about only the welfare of oneself, his or her mind becomes extremely narrow. The concept of “I” is very limited. When we apply “we” instead of “I”, it broadens our thinking. We as human beings are by nature social animals and very much dependent on each other. If you are a Buddhist practitioner in general and a Mahayana follower in particular, or if you have heard about the Bodhisattva Basket or Pitaka, all these talk about ‘every sentient being’. If you observe this concept out of the blue, it would seem as if you haven’t thought much about its meaning. However, the fact is that how much you have altruism and concern for other’s welfare, the same degree of mental peace and happiness will resonate back. If you have concerns only about ‘I’, there will be a lot of worry. When you are concerned on the welfare of all sentient beings, the courage and peace naturally grows within your mind. When ‘I’ is the main concern, then there would be more suspiciousness, distrust, deceitfulness and bullying to each other. When we think of others’ welfare and treat all others equally, keeping in mind that everyone is same, in terms of wishing happiness and not wishing suffering, there will be no cheating, bullying and pretending . You can be more transparent in your approach. When you are capable of being transparent, there will be more trust. When you are trustworthy, there will be a genuine friendship. Without trust in each other, when concerns are only on ‘I’, you tend to spend your life in doubts and hesitations. There is no delight in that at all. In order to achieve physical happiness and good health which is our prime goal, it is really essential to have mental peace. Nowadays, scientists are stating that when mind get disturbed or disordered with destructive emotions like anger, doubt or fear, our immune system starts declining. Therefore, remaining mentally calm makes a huge difference for good physical health. Few days ago, I had a meeting with a German friend who said that I was looking very young. He is 59 years old whereas I am 79 years old. That means he is 20 years younger than me. But, he looks much older than me in appearance. Therefore, he asked me that what my secret behind the youthfulness was, though my age has reached almost 80. I told him, “It is my big secret. I will not tell you.” In my approach, all the seven billion people on earth are very much same. I consider myself as one of the seven billion people. I never think of myself as a special or a popular person. I never think of me as an important figure or I am Gyalwa Rinpoche. Whenever, I meet people with different background, I consider them as another same human being. There is not any feeling of hesitancy or distance to anybody. So, it feels as if my mind is opened freely. As a result, there is no fear, nervousness and doubtful thoughts in my mind. It makes a huge difference in my day to day life. That was what I told him. I also told him by teasing, “As a Buddhist monk, I wake up at 3 AM and meditate for a while. I meet people for the day. As a bhikkhu, I skip dinner and go to bed by 6 to 7 PM. My life goes on in this way. But then, you eat dinner late in the night. At the same time, drink alcohol and get drunk”. There is huge difference between our ways of life. Anyway, the most important thing is to have peace of mind. The root of mental calmness, as I told you before, depends on your attitude. But in our everyday life, it is important to keep our physical body calm and peaceful and try to avoid disorder as well. I told him as a joke, “As a monk, I cannot go to night club”. When our body follows a particular routine in 24 hours, I think that makes a huge difference. So, for good physical health and well being, it is essential to maintain the balance of mind. To sum up, scientists in our time are immensely curious about the mental peace for physical wellbeing. They are saying that brain can be changed by transforming your mind. Earlier, many scientists maintained a scientific consensus that there is no existence of so called ‘mind’ apart from our body, rather it’s the function of brain. They asserted that the mental state of happiness or sorrow occurs when there is a change in brain and body. Recently, they started to accept that it is not easy to change the brain itself in a healthy way. Instead, it turns out that brain can be changed by training of mind. In the context of neuroplasticity, it says that when there is change in mind, there is a cellular growth or changes in brain. In general, when we talk about health and fitness, we cannot put the mind aside. The wellness of physical health is very much dependent on the clarity and intelligence of mind. However, the mind and body has the relationship of support and supported. These are unconditionally associated with each other. So, there is a growing interest and curiosity for the relationship between the mind and body. Thus, it is need of time for convening such a conference on body, mind and Life. Not only sharing your knowledge and intellect but also you are practically working on exploring remedies for solving the physical and mental health. It’s wonderful! I would like to thank all the organizers.

Download or read book Frank written by Annette B. Dunlap and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2010-03-30 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When she married forty-nine-year-old President Grover Cleveland in a White House ceremony on June 2, 1886, Frances Folsom Cleveland was only twenty-one years old, making her the nation's youngest First Lady. Despite her age, however, Washington society marveled at how quickly the inexperienced Mrs. Cleveland (known as "Frank" to her family and friends) established herself as a social leader and capable spouse. Her popular Saturday receptions and glittering formal social events, combined with the warm and winning personality she displayed during her first two years in the White House, made her one of America's most popular First Ladies. Yet, as Annette Dunlap demonstrates in Frank, there was more to this charming and resolute woman than her social and entertaining skills. Active in New York society during the four years between the two Cleveland administrations, Frances built relationships with many of the nation's elite that helped return her husband to the White House for a second term. She played a pivotal role in keeping Cleveland's operation for cancer a secret, and as the country's economic picture and Cleveland's political popularity deteriorated, she coped admirably with criticism of herself and her husband, as well as lies about her children's health. Even though she shared her husband's opposition to women's suffrage, favoring instead an exalted role for women in the home, she struggled with Cleveland's possessiveness. A strong and opinionated woman in her own right, she developed her own network of associations that promoted kindergartens, mission work, and charitable activities that alleviated conditions for the poor. The first widowed former First Lady to remarry, Frances found new life as a political activist, taking a strong stand for military preparedness and promoting the need for a just and lasting peace at the end of World War I. She maintained leadership roles in several organizations well into her seventies, including the board of trustees of her alma mater, Wells College. Her lasting contributions to both early and higher education, as well as her work on behalf of the poor, may well make Frances Folsom Cleveland one of America's most underrated First Ladies.
