Download or read book Riding the Dark Horse written by Lama Nicholas Packard and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2017-10-06 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Years ago, Lama Nicholas Packards mother unexpectedly died after a routine medical procedure. Left stunned and confused, Packard vowed to unearth the truth as to why her life ended so abruptly. As he embarked on a decades-long journey throughout India, China, Tibet, and Bhutan, Packard came to realize how Westerners have been led down a dark path lined with assumed truths and falsehoods. Through this process, he discovered a painful truth we are living a lie. In an enlightening social and philosophical commentary that challenges the truths surrounding Western mentality, Packard delivers what he learned while answering fundamental questions of existence that explore why modern man is becoming more physically, mentally, and socially ill and spiritually adrift with each passing day. While sharing perspectives from great ancient thinkers and the wisdom of their time, Packard explains how our soul has been undermined by the western perception of truth and reality, and how our meaning and purpose of life has been obscured by materialism, artificiality, and dualistic thinking. Very much akin to the epic churn that happens at the end and dawn of every new age, empire and way of being, this book is truly very transformative and the person who reaches the end of it would be very different from the one at the beginning.

Students can learn academic subjects in the same fashion, but it will require us to take a radical new approach to educationone that requires learners to enter real-world settings instead of classrooms separated from reality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most important works ever written on dressage, Breaking and Riding is essential reading for the serious dressage enthusiast. In this work, the result of a lifetime spent training horses, James Fillis (1834?1913) clearly explains his theories and methods, starting with the basics of breaking?lungeing, work in hand, and first mounting?and progressing to advanced work, including canter pirouette, tempi changes, piaffe, and passage. Throughout the work, Fillis always returns to his basic principle: The horse must be ?correctly balanced and light in forward movements and propulsion, in order that the rider may obtain the most powerful effects with the least exertion.? Fillis was an apprentice to a student of the legendary trainer Franöois Baucher. In this book, while expressing admiration for Baucher, Fillis also explains in detail the ways in which he believed Baucher was mistaken in some of his methods.
