Download or read book Flowers Leaning Toward the Sun written by Ry Downey and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-05-14 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spirituality isn't what you think and enlightenment is not a bunch of chanting om and lotus petals. "Flowers Leaning Toward the Sun" is a book about the spiritual maturing of a 21st century American. In his book, Ry Downey paints a picture of what it's like trying to find one's soul in the advertisement-soaked, media-driven machine of a late-capitalist American society. Following the highs and lows of a consciousness on the brink of understanding "something about something," "Flowers Leaning Toward the Sun" is a Zen Punk touchstone for understanding what it's like to be a human on planet earth, alive and awake at this critical point in time.This book is a love child of Bukowski and Rumi, combining Bukowski's blunt honesty with the eternal wonder of Rumi. This is something new.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A kötet elsősorban angol nyelven született versek gyűjteménye, némelyiküket később lefordítottam az anyanyelvemre is. Vannak közöttük csak magyarul létezők, s olyanok is, melyek az angol műfordítással csak évekkel később gazdagodtak. A legfontosabb, s egyben az őket összefűző szép kohéziós erő velük kapcsolatban azonban az, hogy mind az Ikerláng utam, a Szerelemre ébredésem, a Lélek tisztulásának egy-egy revelációja, mely által felismertem, s végre elmondhatom: „Egyetlen vagyok, Egyetlen…”

Book excerpt: If middle school were a race, Joseph Friedman wouldn’t even be in last place—he’d be on the sidelines. With an overactive mind and phobias of everything from hard-boiled eggs to gargoyles, he struggles to understand his classes, let alone his fellow classmates. So he spends most of his time avoiding school bully Charlie Kastner and hiding out in the Resource Room, a safe place for misfit kids like him. But then, on the first day of seventh grade, two important things happen. First, his Resource Room teacher encourages (i.e., practically forces) him to join the school track team, and second, he meets Heather, a crazy-fast runner who isn’t going to be pushed around by Charlie Kastner or anybody else. With a new friend and a new team, Joseph finds himself off the sidelines and in the race (quite literally) for the first time. Is he a good runner? Well, no, he’s terrible. But the funny thing about running is, once you're in the race, anything can happen.
