Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Master of Harmlessness…who came and told us something about our real selves. In April, I woke up one morning, out of the blue, and there was a sort of voice in my head, not exactly a voice, but sort of a telepathic thing, saying, “You will now write the Purple Fables, there will be four of them, and you will do one in each day and the title is to be Purple Fables,” and I said okay…they were sort of dictated from somebody else, someplace, I guess. The Purple Fables happened in April of 1993, but on Christmas morning I woke up and there were these guys again, or these whatever, saying “Okay now you are going to write a thing called the Tale of the Master of Harmlessness and it’s to be seventy-six draft pages in length,” which is actually the length of all four Purple Fables put together, “and you are to work on it for certain hours in the day, and it will all be done by New Year’s.” And in fact it was done and printed out and sit there in manuscript form on December 31st.

Download or read book Purple Fables written by Ingo Swann and published by Swann-Ryder Productions, LLC. This book was released on 2018-09-02 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "If a fable is a legendary story of supernatural happenings," Mr. Swann says, "or a narration intended to enforce a useful truth, then these four are fables--which shouldn't be confused with fairy tales targeted only for children. These, then, are tales for kind and loving people of all ages." "The Temple of Sanity" tells of an idea that became a reality and grew into an insitution, only to develop rules and leaders, cliques and critics . . . "A Clay-Modeling Lesson" tells of the four identical boys separated at birth and raised Christian, Jewish, Muslim, and atheist, and how they met as representatives of their respective communities . . . "The Fate and Destiny of a Traveling Clairvoyant" tells of a woman with a special talent, who found that people prefer seeing dimly to seeing clearly . . . "Watcher of the Purple River" tells of an old woman and a young man, and how she taught him to watch the river of life . . . These fables came to Ingo Swann as a gift from a part of himself: He awoke four mornings in a row and literally had to write them. They have in common a gentle wisdom, a kindness, an empathy, that will make them immediately precious--and then unforgettable--to the reader whose heart is open.
Download or read book Mastering Metrics written by Joshua D. Angrist and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-12-21 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An accessible and fun guide to the essential tools of econometric research Applied econometrics, known to aficionados as 'metrics, is the original data science. 'Metrics encompasses the statistical methods economists use to untangle cause and effect in human affairs. Through accessible discussion and with a dose of kung fu–themed humor, Mastering 'Metrics presents the essential tools of econometric research and demonstrates why econometrics is exciting and useful. The five most valuable econometric methods, or what the authors call the Furious Five--random assignment, regression, instrumental variables, regression discontinuity designs, and differences in differences--are illustrated through well-crafted real-world examples (vetted for awesomeness by Kung Fu Panda's Jade Palace). Does health insurance make you healthier? Randomized experiments provide answers. Are expensive private colleges and selective public high schools better than more pedestrian institutions? Regression analysis and a regression discontinuity design reveal the surprising truth. When private banks teeter, and depositors take their money and run, should central banks step in to save them? Differences-in-differences analysis of a Depression-era banking crisis offers a response. Could arresting O. J. Simpson have saved his ex-wife's life? Instrumental variables methods instruct law enforcement authorities in how best to respond to domestic abuse. Wielding econometric tools with skill and confidence, Mastering 'Metrics uses data and statistics to illuminate the path from cause to effect. Shows why econometrics is important Explains econometric research through humorous and accessible discussion Outlines empirical methods central to modern econometric practice Works through interesting and relevant real-world examples
Download or read book The Making of a Yoga Master written by Suhus Tambe and published by SCB Distributors. This book was released on 2012-07-23 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Suhas Tambe was initiated into the study and life of a yogi through his Indian spiritual master, the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali―an age-old system of guidance―were integral to his training. Tambe is now a scholar and longterm practitioner of this esoteric wisdom. He is also the first Westerner to reveal the hidden sequence of these sutras, which he received from his teacher. From the time of Patanjali onward (~300 BCE), the scrambling of the sequence of sutras was a respected tradition. Such deliberate confusion was done with a view to preserving the sanctity of these precious teachings. Since interpretation of any sutra must bear reference to and consistency with the previous and the following sutra, proper sequence becomes a critical factor, fundamental to the use of this time-honored scripture. The key to the real sequence of Yoga-SÅ©tra was handed down verbally by the guru only to the eligible disciple. The Making of a Yoga Master reveals this original sequence, which has been hidden for so long. Far more than an instruction manual, this book is also about one seeker’s progression. The author, who began his search entrenched in materialism (he was an accountant with an MBA working in IT), was “transformed” into a devoted Yoga practitioner. This path thoroughly changed his life’s priorities, evolved his purpose and dissolved old habits in a way that will be inspiring to many. “Yoga not just entered my life,” he writes, “but now, it is my life.” The clear and sequential stages of transformation through yoga are documented here as perhaps nowhere else in contemporary literature. This new sequence unfolds a practical road-map for knowing and practicing the elevation of the seeker’s awareness―from the physical to more subtle and refined levels―and designates observable milestones to determine one’s progress on the path. The Making of a Yoga Master marries the philosophy of Yoga with clear “how-to” instructions.

Download or read book The Plays of Henry Fielding written by Albert J. Rivero and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 1989 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Henry Fielding was one of the most interesting playwrights of his time because of his historical position, similar to that of George Bernard Shaw, and his awareness of what it meant to be a playwright at a time when the native dramatic tradition appeared to have settled down for a long sleep and when the only hope for an awakening lay in such low crowd-pleasers as farces, puppet shows, "laughing" tragedies, and ballad operas. By focusing on the plays themselves, Rivero tells the story of Fielding's dramatic career without burdening the reader with an exhaustive history of contemporary plays and playwrights. He provides us with a clear, critical account of Fielding's dramatic career in terms of trends in contemporary dramatic affairs that help to account for his artistic choices in individual plays.
Download or read book Mystics written by William Harmless and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Mystics, William Harmless, S.J., introduces readers to the scholarly study of mysticism. He explores both mystics' extraordinary lives and their no-less-extraordinary writings using a unique case-study method centered on detailed examinations of six major Christian mystics: Thomas Merton, Bernard of Clairvaux, Hildegard of Bingen, Bonaventure, Meister Eckhart, and Evagrius Ponticus. Rather than presenting mysticism as a subtle web of psychological or theological abstractions, Harless's case-study approach brings things down to earth, restoring mystics to their historical context.
