Download or read book Lady of Realisation written by Sheila Fugard and published by BalboaPress. This book was released on 2012-08-22 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lady of Realisation is one of the first memoirs of Tibetan Buddhist nun and western teacher Sister Karma Khechog Palmo. The book provides memorable insights of the sixteenth Karmapa and other teachers of the Kagyu tradition in the 1970s. Sister Palmos life as an Englishwoman in India was extraordinary both as an academic, political activist, and social worker. She is remembered as one of the key figures in bringing the sixteenth Karmapa to the West. She influenced younger important teachers like Trungpa Rinpoche and Akong Rinpoche. It was my privilege to have been her student, and to study and travel with her. This memoir is a reflection of that extraordinary time of the arrival of Tibetan Buddhism in the West in the 1970s. The memoir brings with it deep, personal experiences from my own life, lived out during the brutal years of the apartheid government in South Africa. The life and work of Sister Palmo continues to inspire others on the path. She brought the ancient yogic tradition of the woman yogis of the past together with insights into contemporary life. Her invaluable teachings open a door into the practice of Buddhism in our everyday journey.

Significantly, the book is written by women whose experience and insight give new perspective to a revitalized appreciation and love of Mary.

Download or read book The Making of a Marchioness Its Sequel The Methods of Lady Walderhurst written by Frances Hodgson Burnett and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-11-28 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Frances Hodgson Burnett worked on two books simultaneously: The Shuttle, a longer and more complicated book; and The Making of a Marchioness, which she wrote in a few weeks and published to good reviews. it is about the rejuvenating effects of Americans and American money on a somewhat decadent English aristocracy. The Making of a Marchioness (1901) It was originally published in two parts: the first tells the fairy tale-like story of how our heroine, Emily Fox-Seton, became the Marchioness of Walderhurst. The second, originally titled The Methods of Lady Walderhurst, is a down-to-earth portrayal of the realities of Victorian marriage, with a bit of a Victorian sensation vibe to it. The Shuttle (1907) It was begun in 1900 but frequently abandoned while its author, Frances Hodgson Burnett, wrote several other books, including, most famously, The Making of a Marchioness. The Shuttle is about American heiresses marrying English aristocrats; by extension it is about the effect of American energy and dynamism rejuvenating a somewhat decadent English aristocracy: Rosalie Vanderpoel, the daughter of an American multimillionaire marries an impoverished English baronet and goes to live in England. She all but loses contact with her family in America. Years later her younger sister Bettina, beautiful, intelligent and extremely rich, goes to England to find what has happened to her sister. She finds Rosalie shabby and dispirited, cowed by her husband's ill treatment. Bettina sets about to rectify matters... Frances Eliza Hodgson Burnett (1849–1924) was an English-American playwright and author. She is best known for her children's stories, in particular Little Lord Fauntleroy , A Little Princess, and The Secret Garden.
Download or read book Gender and the Historian written by Johanna Alberti and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-07-10 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why are most famous historians men? How have women changed the writing of history over the last decades? What lives and stories have been hidden from history? Until recently history was predominantly the domain of men. That men were the authors of our past meant that in many cases only half of the story was told. In the second half of the twentieth century, however, the picture changed. Women, and indeed some men as well, started to address gender history. Women had been investigated historically before, but never with such intensity, nor such breadth. The impetus for this writing was both political and academic as feminists were determined to explore lives which until then had been disregarded. Gender and the Historian charts the entry and development of this new history, showing how such considerations furthered postmodernism and ultimately reinvigorated the very core of History..

Download or read book Good Things Happen in Glasgow written by Jude Addo and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-07-31 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is not your ordinary love story. In the second chapter of Genesis, a marriage takes place between a man and a woman that pales in comparison to the hypnotism of modern-day romance. This union bears little semblance to the excessively romanticized 21st century courtship, engagement, and wedding. Their matrimony is solely driven by purpose, a concept typically foreign to the new age of passion-fuelled relationships. Youth speaker and Christian author, Jude Addo, draws upon life-changing experiences during his betrothal that unveil some hard truths about love, relationships, and life in general. This book speaks to the trials and triumphs that come with obeying the voice of God, whilst challenging the status quo on several religious and sociological matters. A man of refreshing candour, Addo, cleverly uses his engagement period as a thrilling backdrop to take the reader on a voyage of spiritual enlightenment.
