Book excerpt: Fiction. LGBT Studies. MORE LIGHT is a musical fantasia, in major and minor keys, of the generations at a crossroads and how the stories within our stories weave about us as we grow and change and remember. Iva Sturtevant, a soprano of some repute in provincial European opera houses, has returned to her childhood home to tend her ailing parents. Iva's brother, Leo Sturtevant, who has never left Josephine, Illinois, has recently been dismissed from his social service job, suspected of inappropriate behavior. Now, awaiting the inevitable disappearance of the oldest generation, Iva entertains Leo with tales from her obscure romantic operas, and Leo entices his big sister to read an old 1960s paperback about the world's last heterosexual, a novel dear to him for its mirror image of his own plight in a tiny rural town. This old novel even inspires Leo to write something himself, in secret, a mystery story about twin boys, one of them accused of a violent crime.

Imagine you’re sitting on a cushion with your legs crossed, ready to tap into unlimited joy. There’s just one problem: You can’t get comfortable (let alone still), and your head is full of way too many thoughts. The problem is not with meditation, or you, though—the issue may be with your approach. When properly understood and practiced, meditation should feel easy, calming, and comfortable. In Bliss More, maverick instructor Light Watkins provides the tools for making it E.A.S.Y. (Embrace, Accept, Surrender, Yield), dispels the biggest myths and misunderstandings, and shares real-world tips and straight talk for hacking into this ancient practice. The result: a happier and healthier you, inside and out. Watkins also shares candid testimonials from people whose lives have been enriched through his method, and extensive resources for transforming a daily chore into an enjoyable activity. Even the biggest skeptic will look forward to sitting for meditation every day. Whether you’re a novice or experienced practitioner, Bliss More will shed light on the path to a clearer mind, better sleep, and more bliss in everyday life.

Download or read book Less Heat More Light written by John D. Aber and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2023-06-13 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A straightforward and fact-based exploration of how weather happens, how it relates to climate, and how science answers major questions about Earth as a system Climate change is one of the most hotly contested environmental topics of our day. To answer criticisms and synthesize available information, scientists have been driven to devise increasingly complex models of the climate system. This book conveys that the basics of climate and climate change have been known for decades, and that relatively simple descriptions can capture the major features of the climate system and help the general public understand what controls climate and weather, and how both might be changing. Renowned environmental scientist and educator John D. Aber distills what he has learned from a long fascination with weather and climate, the process of science, and the telling of the story of science. This is not a book about policies and politics. Instead, it explores how weather happens, how it relates to climate, and how science has been used to answer major questions about the Earth as a system and inform policies that have reversed environmental degradation. By providing a guided tour of the science of weather, this thoughtful survey will contribute clarity and rationality to the public understanding of climate change.
Download or read book More Light from the Book written by George D. Johnson and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2006-01-31 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book Summary More Light From The Book is a sequel to reverend George Johnsons first publication Light From The Book that expounds on the scriptures that clearly demonstrate clean and honest living before our Lord. More Light From The Book helps Christians discover the secret to maintaining strength and faith in the word of God when we are in the midst of any battle, whether it is failing health, unpleasant people, or the lack of financial resources. The answers to anyones problems can be found in the number of scriptures from which Reverend Johnson elucidates his themes. More Light From The Book is a verse-by-verse study of various scriptures from the Bible that can be used as an excellent tool for home Bible study with family and friends. The Bible teaches us that Christians must live one day at a time, be doers of Gods word, and live by faith, which equips Christians with the knowledge that faith in Gods blessings to us is a way of life. In this powerful book, Reverend Johnson reveals through the scriptures that by taking one day at a time, we can reduce stress, worry, and anxiety in our lives when we rely on the unchanging word of God to provide our every need on a daily basis. When individuals take one day at a time, they will not have to worry about their daily sustenance. Christians need to consider repotting for growth; as Sarah Ban Bratnach explains: When we cant visualize or dream. When we cant remember the last time we laughed. When we have absolutely nothing in the next twenty-four hours to look forward to. When this happens, week in, and week out, we need to realize that were pot-bound. We need to gently loosen the soil around our souls, and find something that brings a smile or a giddy lilt to our lives. For this reason, More Light From the Book gives us roots and room to grow. Reverend Johnsons abundant offering of scriptures can help Christians root, bud, and bear silent witness to a revitalized spirit.
Download or read book More Light on the Expanding Universe written by Les Hardison and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2016-03-08 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More Light on the Expanding Universe explores the ramifications of the existence of a fourth physical dimension into which the universe is expanding. One of these is the possibility that light travels at infinite speed from the source to any receptor anywhere, rather than at the 300,000 Kilometers per second generally accepted by contemporary physicists. This resolves many of the paradoxes in present-day physics, and simplifies many of the complexities associated with Einsteins special theory of relativity. In More Light on the Expanding Universe, Les Hardison, now retired from a career as a mechanical engineer, reveals decades of pondering the state of physics and develops this alternate premise. This volume continues the presentation begun in its companion work, A New Light on the Expanding Universe. More Light on the Expanding Universe proceeds in a thoughtful and orderly way to draw out the consequences of reconceiving the nature of light. In the course of seventeen chapters, the explication of this revised understanding of light relies both on traditional thought-experiments and on the development and explanation of the equations that physicists typically use to delineate statements of the nature and interaction of matter and energy. The final chapter provides both context and commentary on the journey the author undertook to develop the works statement of the nature of physical reality. This exploration proposes a novel conception of physics and explains the ramifications of asserting that light travels from a source to any detector instantaneously rather than at a finite velocity.

Download or read book The Gospel of John More Light from Philo Paul and Archaeology written by Peder Borgen and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2014-03-06 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To Paul the traditions from and about Jesus had authority similar to that of the Scriptures: a logion or story served as text for paraphrastic expositions. Such expositions are also seen in John's Gospel. - It is insufficient to discuss 'John and the Synoptics'. A better scope is 'John within early gospel traditions'.- Paul and Philo maintain a cosmic understanding of Jesus and the Jewish people, respectively. Correspondingly, Jesus is seen in cosmological perspective in John's Prologue. Philo illuminates the role of God's logos relative to creation and revelation. - Archaeology testifies to the reliability of John's topographical references. Both John and Philo can combine theological and ideological elaborations with specific geographical references, historical events and religious feasts. The study has brought in material and perspectives which strengthen the view that the Gospel of John was independent of the other three written gospels.

Download or read book More Precious than Light written by Margarete van den Brink and published by Temple Lodge Publishing. This book was released on 2021-04-28 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Relationships are built through dialogue – through exploring heartfelt questions that lead to liberating personal insights. This book shows how such dialogue can transform relationships and build community. However, true meeting and healing conversations take effort. Encounter involves light and dark. Relationships bring out sympathy and antipathy. In an age of digital communications and internet-based encounters – when alienation and loneliness are very real issues – this new edition of Margarete van den Brink’s classic work is more vital than ever. The process of inner development – leading ultimately to the unification of the human self with its higher, spiritual being – involves a transformation in our everyday selves. In this act of initiation, the art of conversation plays a central role. The words which people speak to each other contain a force that can work in an invigorating and life-enhancing way. This force – which can be more precious than light itself – is the highest creative principle, the Word referred to in the Gospel of St John, which created everything that exists. Informed by the insights of anthroposophy, More Precious than Light indicates the path towards the spirit and the lost power of the Word, transforming relationships and building community. True encounter can only be fostered through making real connections with our fellow human beings.
