Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thoughts, unlike objects, do not belong to you: they come from somewhere else all the time, stay and interact with your Consciousness for a while, and then imperceptibly disappear to somewhere. Your thinking is the process of continuously synthesizing in your reality newer and newer Forms from the already known to you mental and sensual experience. Therefore for you the thinking process represents the «beginning» and the «end» of absolutely all of your desires - from getting some material benefits to achieving «higher» (according to your concepts) spiritual goals. By mastering the art of mental transformations, you will have an absolutely real means of consciously controlling the material conditions of your earthly existence. By improving in this direction, your mentality can reach the point where it becomes possible to control the powerful factors of the natural elements of Nature, influencing not only the weather, but also such destructive phenomena as tornadoes, tornadoes, earthquakes, tsunamis with the power of your Mind…
Download or read book British Army on the Rampage B A O R written by Sean Connolly and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2014-02-03 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s the autobiographical novels that tell it how it was – warts and all. This is what the British Army really got up to in Belize! British Army on the Rampage is a down-to-earth, witty account of a humble British soldier on his tour of duty in the Carribean country of Belize in 1982. It is the first military account of this operational tour, detailing how the task was carried out by an individual and a 'team of lunatics', under difficult and sometimes stressful conditions. It takes more than training, education, teamwork and leadership to make it through a squaddie’s working day. B.A.O.R. proves that sometimes, it is only with sheer determination, camaraderie and a sense of belonging to the 'military family' that pulls soldiers through the difficult times they often face. The book is filled with humorous anecdotes, including the accidental destruction of the warden’s new hut with a grenade launcher, the export of frozen tarantulas, windsurfing with bull-sharks, biting the heads off chickens, insulting the memory of Bob Marley, causing a riot, breaking a toe on a frog and the near-death experience of a dislocated finger… Along with the author’s account of this operation, B.A.O.R. also includes an analysis of the balance between patriotism, professionalism and sheer lunacy. Humorous and honest, it will appeal to serving, ex-services and veteran armed forces personnel, and those who enjoy military history and are interested in the British Army.

Before long, she has a set of glamorous new friends and her romance with gorgeous, masterful Raclin is heating up. It’s almost too good to be true. Then the elegant veneer shatters.

And it will take her becoming Aruendiel’s student—and learning magic herself—to survive. When a passage home finally opens, Nora must weigh her “real life” against the dangerous power of love and magic.
