Book excerpt: Heaven meets earth in the human who is both physical and divine. In the history of the world, the human family is today at the portal of a major turning point. These changes are already in process and many all over the globe are contributing to this at different levels. Over the last millennia human beings evolved and developed the five physical senses. The sixth and seventh invisible senses, mind and intuition were accessible only to the few. What characterizes modernity is that, what was available to the few has now become personally accessible and individually important to humanity at large. This book gives you an in depth insight into several important historical themes of the metaphysical world, at the same time it translates this knowledge in a way that makes it possible for the individual to integrate metaphysics into modern everyday life. The themes of this book deal with the different phases of consciousness, individual, group and global. Part I and II explains the theory of how spirituality differs from religion, how the human interacts with the cosmos, metaphysics, the importance of independent thinking, mind and intuition development and more. Part III offers practical exercises on how to discover and develop the divine in you.
Download or read book The Oneonta Roundhouse written by Jim Loudon and published by Square Circle Press LLC. This book was released on 2010 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oneonta Roundhouse provides the definitive account of the birth, life, and death of the world's largest railroad roundhouse, built in the early 1900s in Oneonta, New York. Jim Loudon, a founding member of the Leatherstocking Railway Historical Society, describes in detail the earlier roundhouses built on the site by the Delaware & Hudson Railroad, and how the company's rapid growth led to the turntable's expansion. He provides specific information about the background politics and the construction of the primary roundhouse, and the improvements made to the monumental building over the years. The book is heavily illustrated, with 122 photos and 53 maps and diagrams, including full schematics for the roundhouse, turntable, and adjacent buildings. Other chapters focus on the D&H's Challenger locomotives, and the coal pocket fire of 1946 that ultimately ended in tragedy. The book's epilogue chapter includes Loudon's photographs of the building's twilight, taken only months before the remaining structure was dismantled. About the Second Edition First published in 1993, The Oneonta Roundhouse has sold over 3000 copies worldwide, a tribute to its story and the continuing interest in railroading history.
