Download or read book Changing Reality written by Serge Kahili King and published by Quest Books. This book was released on 2013-04-01 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Reality is experience, and experience is reality,” says Hawaiian shaman Serge King, speaking of Huna, the esoteric tradition in which he was reared.King emphasizes that all of us have the ability to shift from one world to another. The difference is that shamans do it purposefully, while the rest of us are unaware of it. He trains us to engage in the process consciously in order to expand our human potential. Among books on Huna, this one is unique for offering actual practices for changing our reality to create the life we want. In a user-friendly, conversational style, King’s chapters explain the four worlds of a shaman and basic Huna principles. Then, citing case studies, he guides us in how to change reality in each of the four worlds, bringing in ESP, telepathy, the perception of auras, telekinesis, dreaming, magical flight, and, finally, soul retrieval and the great power of healing. “It sounds simple,” says King, “and it is. The most difficult part is to accept the simplicity, because that means changing one's idea about what reality is. And that's what this book is all about.”

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if John, the last living apostle of Jesus Christ, was still alive and well… and living in Seattle? In A.D. 100, John is restored to the body of his youth and sent on a mission with a warning: to never reveal his true identity. He winds up on a small Greek isle where he faces an attempted assassination, a run-in with the Roman authorities, and develops a relationship with the daughter of the village leader. Fast-forward to modern day Seattle, where John leads a foundation dedicated to bringing clean water to third world nations.

John struggles to keep his secret as he grows close to Nicole, a young woman he recruits to lead his organization. For two thousand years, John has wandered the earth while hiding his true identity. But now, both friends and foes are on the verge of discovering who he truly is—an event that will trigger the end times. Can John divert those who would discover his secret, or will curious friends and suspicious enemies spark the apocalypse? The Last Apostle is the first in the series of novels on the life of John over the last two millennia.
Download or read book Eighteenth Century Thing Theory in a Global Context written by Ileana Baird and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-29 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring Enlightenment attitudes toward things and their relation to human subjects, this collection offers a geographically wide-ranging perspective on what the eighteenth century looked like beyond British or British-colonial borders. To highlight trends, fashions, and cultural imports of truly global significance, the contributors draw their case studies from Western Europe, Russia, Africa, Latin America, and Oceania. This survey underscores the multifarious ways in which new theoretical approaches, such as thing theory or material and visual culture studies, revise our understanding of the people and objects that inhabit the phenomenological spaces of the eighteenth century. Rather than focusing on a particular geographical area, or on the global as a juxtaposition of regions with a distinctive cultural footprint, this collection draws attention to the unforeseen relational maps drawn by things in their global peregrinations, celebrating the logic of serendipity that transforms the object into some-thing else when it is placed in a new locale.

Download or read book The Feather Room written by Anis Mojgani and published by SCB Distributors. This book was released on 2010-08-13 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Science, birds, Billy the Kid, and lots of feathers surround The Feather Room, Anis Mojgani’s follow up to his Pushcart-nominated work, Over the Anvil We Stretch. In The Feather Room, Mojgani further explores storytelling in poetic form while traveling farther down the path of magic realism, endowing his tales with a greater sense of fantasy and brightness. The work recounts loss and heartbreak while discovering lightness and beauty on the other side. Throughout the book, Mojgani opens tree trunks to reveal chandeliers. He leads us through the rooms inside himself, using poems to part curtains and paint walls. He is lifting windows to let the fantasy indoors. Anis Mojgani, Andrea Gibson, you and other young poets of their talent are the future of American poetry and frankly, that fills me with joy! --Thomas Lux, Guggenheim Fellow & recipient of the Kingsley Tufts Poetry Award for his book Split Horizons Mojgani is not your typical national poetry slam champion...The playfulness, startling originality, and lyric optimism are all gravy. He's simply the best there is right now. -Taylor Mali, “The Last Time As We Are" Anis shook the dust off me and everyone else in the audience with the beauty of his words. -Saul Williams, “Said the Shotgun to the Head”
Download or read book The Velveteen Rabbit at 100 written by Lisa Rowe Fraustino and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2023-05-18 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contributions by Kelly Blewett, Claudia Camicia, Alisa Clapp-Itnyre, Lisa Rowe Fraustino, Elisabeth Graves, Karlie Herndon, KaaVonia Hinton, Holly Blackford Humes, Melanie Hurley, Kara K. Keeling, Maleeha Malik, Claudia Mills, Elena Paruolo, Scott T. Pollard, Jiwon Rim, Paige Sammartino, Adrianna Zabrzewska, and Wenduo Zhang First published in 1922 to immediate popularity, The Velveteen Rabbit by Margery Williams has never been out of print. The story has been adapted for film, television, and theater across a range of mediums including animation, claymation, live action, musical, and dance. Frequently, the story inspires a sentimental, nostalgic response—as well as a corresponding dismissive response from critics. It is surprising that, despite its longevity and popularity, The Velveteen Rabbit has inspired a relatively thin dossier of serious literary scholarship, a gap that this volume seeks to correct. While each essay can stand alone, the chapters in "The Velveteen Rabbit" at 100 flow in a coherent sequence from beginning to end, showing connections between readings from a wide array of critical approaches. Philosophical and cultural studies lead us to consider the meaning of love and reality in ways both timeless and temporal. The Velveteen Rabbit is an Anthropocene Rabbit. He is also disabled. Here a traditional exegetical reading sits alongside queering the text. Collectively, these essays more than double the amount of serious scholarship on The Velveteen Rabbit. Combining hindsight with evolving sensibilities about representation, the contributors offer thirteen ways of looking at this Rabbit that Margery Williams gave us—ways that we can also use to look at other classic storybooks.

Download or read book Will You into My Will written by Luna and published by Austin Macauley Publishers. This book was released on 2024-02-02 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He looked at me and the time stopped. ‘Are you okay?’ his date asked, catching him stare vacantly at my direction. ‘Yeah,’ he replied, reluctantly pulling his eyes away from me. ‘I just feel weird, like I have been here before right at this table, having this same lunch and looking at...’ It was unnatural. The connection we had from the very beginning. Like there was an unearthly power at play. As though, our very paths had collided for a purpose and we were destined to meet. ‘Hi, my name is Will’ he said. I still lay my head on the ground and watch the clouds float by sometimes; thinking of an emerald pair of green eyes, like satin curtains falling into a black void. Re-living in my head that beautiful summer day when Brandon and I walked hand in hand across the lavender fields with our best friends. ‘Look into my eyes you’ll see what you mean to me.’ The song that played on the radio when Will drove on the highway, on a never-ending road; to a ‘forever’ that I imagined would always be mine.

Download or read book Lou Sullivan written by Brice Smith and published by Transgress Press. This book was released on 2017-03-15 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “[They] said I couldn’t live as a gay man, but it looks like I’m going to die like one.” Good Midwestern girls did not grow up to be gay men and die from AIDS. Unless they were transgender pioneer Lou Sullivan (1951-1991). In this heart-wrenchingly inspirational biography, Brice D. Smith reclaims one of the most tragically overlooked people in LGBT history. Sullivan marched for Civil Rights, embraced the 1960s counterculture, came of age in the gay liberation movement, transformed medical treatment of trans people, institutionalized trans history, forged an international female-to-male (FTM) transgender community and died from AIDS at the epicenter of the crisis. He overcame tremendous obstacles to be who he was and dedicated his life to helping others do the same. An activist to the end, Sullivan inspired a generation to rethink gender identity, sexual orientation and what it means to be human.

Download or read book Sacramental Identity written by T. Ryan Dillon and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2024-04-01 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who am I? A theology of personal identity and an answer to that question should be integral to any theological anthropology. For some, the answer is found in what many have called “expressive individualism,” an inward turn toward the self and who and what I feel is most authentic to that self. Christians respond that we are no longer that person, we are “in Christ.” But do either of these answers truly respond to the realities of both storied and embodied persons living out a life over time and change or the demand for an answer of stability throughout that endless change? Sacramental Identity seeks to answer these questions by grounding personal identity in Scripture, history, and a rich theology of the sacraments of the church. In a time where many are skeptical of the church’s care for the embodied and storied realities of human life, the sacraments invite us into the story of Christ and the church to discover who we are.
