Book excerpt: How is modern psychotherapy impacted when it is approached from the presence and understanding of the unconditioned mind? What happens when therapists are able to function as a sacred mirror for their clients' essential nature, reflecting back not only the contents of awarenessùthoughts, feelings and sensationsùbut awareness itself? Informed by their direct experience as well as by nondual teachings from both eastern and western wisdom traditions, the authors take a fresh look at what psychotherapy can be. These seminal essays will challenge and inspire readers to approach psychotherapy in a new wayùas a potential portal for experiencing their deepest nature as free and joyful beings.Seasoned clinicians, Dan Berkow, Stephan Bodian, Dorothy Hunt, Sheila Krystal, Lynn Marie Lumiere, Richard Miller, John Prendergast, John Welwood, Jennifer Welwood and Bryan Wittine, and innovative western spiritual teachers, Adyashanti and Peter Fenner, explore critical issues at the interface of psychology and spirituality from a nondual perspective.

Book excerpt: "My body burns for him. It would be so easy to take him, to take what he offers me, to mate him. But I cannot. I must do my duty to my people." Reece knows the Dragons are dying out. He's given up hope of ever taking a mate for himself, as the sacred male omegas capable of carrying dragon young were hunted to extinction. But when Reece stumbles upon Matthew Stiles and recognizes him for the sacred omega he is, Reece knows that he must do everything in his power to protect the man - the only spark of hope for his race. Matthew can't deny that Mr. Tall, Dark, and Scrumptious is gorgeous and intense, but right now? He doesn't have time for distractions. He's more concerned about finding a job - any job in his field. A Master's in Paleontology doesn't go as far as it used to. The last thing that Matthew expects when he's invited to a secret dig is for Reece to show up at the hotel he is staying in - but when Reece saves from him being attacked by a group of men calling themselves the Templars, Matthew can't help but to start taking Reece's wild claims more seriously. Reece is only 800 years old - not old enough to breed. He should adhere to his people's laws, relinquishing his claim, and take Matthew before the dragon elders. Matthew ought to run far away from any man who claims to be a mythological beast. But when sparks flare, will the pull of their bodies be enough to forge a connection of the heart? Sacred Omega is the first book in the Guardian Dragons series. With rich worldbuilding and a satisfying happily ever after, this book is scorchingly hot, packed with adventure, and sets the stage for an epic struggle between the bonds of love and the darkness of hate. This book and every other book in the Guardian Dragons Series can be read in any order.

Download or read book Omega written by Camille Flammarion and published by Standard Ebooks. This book was released on 2018-09-10T20:12:50Z with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born in 1842, Camille Flammarion was a French astronomer who wrote many popular books about science and astronomy, together with a number of novels which we would now consider to be science fiction. He was a contemporary of H. G. Wells and Jules Verne, though his works never achieved their level of popularity. Omega: The Last Days of the World is an English translation of Flammarion’s novel La Fin du Monde, published in 1893. The book’s fictional premise is the discovery of a comet on a collision course with the Earth in the 25th century. However, this is mostly a pretext on which Flammarion can hang his interesting scientific speculations about how the world will end, together with philosophical thoughts about war and religion. Much of the scientific description he uses in the book, while accurately representing the knowledge and thinking of his time, has today been superseded by modern discoveries. For example, we now know the source of the Sun’s energy to be nuclear fusion rather than being due to gravitational contraction and the constant infall of meteorites. When talking about the ills of society, however, Flammarion could well be talking about today’s world. For example, he excoriates the vast waste of society’s resources on war, and demonstrates how much more productive each nation’s economy would be without it. He also depicts the media of his future world as having been entirely taken over by commercial interests, publishing only what will excite the greatest number of readers rather than serving the public interest. Omega ranges over a vast period of time, from prehistory through to millions of years in the future when mankind has been reduced to the last two doomed individuals. Nevertheless, the book ends on a hopeful and inspiring note. This book is part of the Standard Ebooks project, which produces free public domain ebooks.

Download or read book Reveal written by Meggan Watterson and published by Hay House, Inc. This book was released on 2013-04-03 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Harvard-trained theologian Meggan Watterson marched out of her church at age ten. With little-girl clarity, she knew something tremendously crucial was missing…the voices of women. Watterson became a theologian and a pilgrim to the divine feminine to find the missing stories and images of women’s spiritual voices. She knew women’s voices had never been silenced, just buried. But what she truly sought was her own spiritual voice inside her—the one veiled beneath years of self-doubt. At a sacred site of the Black Madonna in Europe, Watterson had a revelation that changed her. Rather than transcending the body, denying or ignoring it, being spiritual for her meant accepting her body as sacred. Only then, Watterson realized could she hear the voice of unfaltering love inside her- the voice of her soul. With passion, humor, and brutal honesty, Watterson draws on ancient stories and lesser-known texts of the divine feminine, like The Gospel of Mary Magdalene, making them modern and accessible to reveal the spiritual process she went through. She suggests that being spiritual is simply about stripping down to the truth of who we really are. Through her extensive work with women, Watterson found that she was not alone. There are countless women who long for a spirituality that encourages embodiment rather than denies it, that inspires them to abandon their fears but never themselves, and to be led by the audacious and fiercely loving voice of truth inside them. No matter where you rest on the spectrum of spirituality; religious or secular, devout believer or chronic doubter, freelance mystic or borderline agnostic, this story is about the desire in all of us to want to shed everything that holds us back. Reveal provides what religions have left out—the spiritual voice of a woman who has claimed her body as sacred—a woman who has found the divine insider her. In essence, this is a manual for revealing your soul. "I have spent the majority of my life gathering stories of the divine feminine. Each time before getting my masters degrees in theology and divinity, I went on a pilgrimage to sacred sites of the divine feminine throughout Europe. The first one was with a group and the second was on my own… The stories of the divine feminine, of Christianity’s Mary Magdalene, Catholicism’s Black Madonna, Hinduism’s Kali ma, and Buddhism’s Green Tara for example, allowed me to begin to see that I wasn’t as much of a spiritual misfit as I had thought. There was a red thread that became visible to me that ran through so many of the world religions, especially through their mystics, relating that the way to find the divine is to go within. And, that our potential to be transformed by going inward is exactly the same whether we are a man or a woman. The real barometer of our spiritual potential is not our sex, but the commitment of our desire to want to encounter the divine." Excerpt from Reveal

Drawing on twenty-five years of experience as a psychologist and fifteen years as a spiritual director, Nancy L.

With gentle encouragement, Bieber shows how to weave these themes together to discover the best path for you. Each chapter is enriched by practical spiritual exercises to help you understand yourself and your specific situation, as well as to strengthen spiritual discernment as a daily way of life.

Download or read book The Alpha and Omega written by Oswald Sequeira and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-05 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Alpha and Omega" is a book about the truth-and nothing but the truth-the knowledge about truth which is called Wisdom. The book starts from the beginning of time-"The Alpha" and takes the reader on a smooth ride down creation of the Universe, then with Historical and Archeological proof down ancient times, medieval times to current time. From there it transports the reader in to the future-where we are going and where we will end-"The Omega" . It is a unique, bold, one of a kind "Lone Ranger" type of book. The author after his encounter with death and subsequent survival from two major illnesses which attacked him together, began seeking for the truth of life and after four years of dedicated research, found it in the sacred books of the four major religions of the world- the Bible of Christians, the Torah of the Jews, the Koran of the Muslims and the Bagavat Gita of the Indian Hindus. The truth shocked yet consoled him when he understood that the these warring religions are, but the four rooms of one single house, built on one single foundation yet, blocked out from each other. Whose builder is "the single central figure" who is also the "Corner Stone". He was disappointed to note that the leaders of these religions are aware of this fact, yet are misguiding their followers- keeping them in darkness to keep them trapped under their own religious banner for ever, although it is creating so much of unnecessary chaos in this world. This is the purpose of this book- the message that the author wants to spread to the world and not conversion from any faith to any faith. However, he believes that one religion stands way ahead of the other three because of the solid proof it possesses, both historical and archeological.The book is a unique amalgamation of the truth derived from these four sacred books and assembled in one place, thus saving any truth seeker from the hassle of tedious cross reference into these four books. He has also described in simple understandable language some of the visions in the Bible and how they are connected directly with recorded History and can therefore be considered true. He has also unmasked the identity of the devil and anti christ, and has explained who are the demons, ghosts and spirits of the dead, the Armageddon and the end of the world. Finally, he has challenged the reader by throwing an option at him to believe in the truth he the author has presented if the reader wishes, thereby acquire peace and tranquility within himself and then be an instrument in spreading it within his circle and world at large for a better tomorrow. The author pledged that part of the royalties earned for this book will be given to The Canadian Cancer Society-Canada and a charity institution in India.

Download or read book Transforming Social Inquiry Transforming Social Action written by Francine T. Sherman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John F. Kerry United States Senator If we are to reinvigorate and reinforce civic participation in this country at a time when our society is increasingly fragmented and highly technologically based, we must find a way to unite distinct communities, such as universities, regional and non-profit organizations, and families. We must find ways to link academicians, students, teachers, and professionals with the reality of events and circumstances so that theories and ideas mightily pursued within the "ivory tower" are connected to social reality and useful. As the editors and contributors in this volume point out, the way to bridge theory/practice divide is not merely to interpret and report on circumstances of the real-world; but rather, to deconstruct the separate and distinct communities that exist within our society and actively engage other communities to realize a continuum of mutual understanding, collaboration, and action. It is crucial to include our nation's public schools in this new approach of social inquiry and social action. Improving and creating educational opportunity for all children in the United States has been an ongoing critical federal issue. We know that when children achieve in school they have a much greater chance of living healthy, productive adult lives that will benefit themselves and society, and we know that increasing the base of stakeholders in children's education yields those positive results.
