Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Nei Jing consists of ancient Chinese scripts and is the foundation of Chinese acupuncture. But several factors make the Nei Jing, and also today’s Chinese medicine, difficult to comprehend. Parts of the Nei Jing are fact based, parts are metaphorical and not intended to be interpreted literally, and other parts contain contradictory theories, which cannot all be true. Added to this is the problem that Chinese medicine concepts can seem incomprehensible to Western readers anyway. This book tackles these problems by relating Chinese medicine knowledge to today’s physiology and identifying the overlap. The book also extensively analyses the Nei Jing theories on metabolism, organ function, physiology, and the five phase theory; and points out which aspects of these theories are fact based, which are metaphorical, and which are untrue. This enables students to readily understand Nei Jing metabolism and physiology, and to decide for themselves which aspects apply in reality. Today’s Chinese medicine disease syndromes are also explained. But in general the book follows the simple approach used in the Nei Jing. With each organ, a single main condition is cited, such as “poor kidney function”, then the signs and symptoms listed. This enables Western students to understand the condition, and also demonstrates how to communicate Chinese medicine to patients. The book also analyses recent scientific ideas on how acupuncture may work, and describes its own “intelligent tissue” hypothesis. This groundbreaking hypothesis is supported by objective experimental data and provides a lucid and plausible explanation of what the meridians are, what acupuncture is; and it also clearly describes the mechanism that enables acupuncture to correct organ malfunctions. The book brings an unusual transparency to Chinese medicine, making the whole subject easier to understand. Fletcher Kovich runs his own Chinese acupuncture practice in the UK. Praise for Secrets of the Hidden Vessels "The book is fascinating. And from the teaching perspective, it is a great tool to help students understand the organ functions. The book also uses an interesting approach to explain the mental and emotional factors in causing disease, which again will greatly assist in the teaching of this aspect of Chinese medicine." - Brandon Fuller, Program Chair, East West College of Natural Medicine, Sarasota, Florida. “We have come across many books on Chinese Medicine and particularly like this book’s approach of blending the Western and Chinese understanding of the organs, to make it clear that both systems describe the same organs. There is a global paradigm shift in medicine, and the importance of Chinese Medicine in understanding the body and health plays a key role in the West’s acceptance of alternative approaches to healthcare.” - Sam Patel, Joint Principal, The International College of Oriental Medicine (UK)

Download or read book God Uses Broken Vessels written by Chris G. Abaga and published by Tate Publishing & Enterprises. This book was released on 2013-10 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unless your selfish desires, ambition, and flesh are nailed to the cross of Christ, you will amount to nothing. To be able to wait patiently for the perfect timing of God's vindication after passing the tough tests of approval and arrive graciously at the port of breakthrough and destiny is not a cheap matter. Many people are in a hurry, and they think God is too slow. However, without being broken and remolded to fit into the divine pattern, your usefulness will be limited. God uses broken vessels. Are you willing to let God operate on you, cut you into pieces in a way that seems merciless, like a qualified, focused surgeon? God does not spare anyone. God is not a respecter of persons. There are no sacred cows in God's kingdom. We need to be completely open to God's working to prepare His servants for true greatness, through the painful experience of brokenness.

He is a master at story crafting, reeling in readers, and plot twists. - Lots of history in this book that made me review my knowledge of past ages.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1972, sinister and dark forces invaded my life from a nonphysical realm causing great fear to grip my heart. This experience led me to undertake a detailed search and study over a 35 year period of ancient writings dealing with the spirit realm. During this time, I came to realize that there are two forces that we have to deal with in our lives on a continuous basis - namely the forces of good and evil. I also became aware of the fact that there are two forces called the truth and the false. Discerning the knowledge of the truth involved the construction of what I refer to in the book as the matrix of truth. The matrix can be looked upon as building blocks that a person establishes in their heart as they live out their life. In my quest for the truth, I uncovered The Greatest Secret Ever Hidden. Can you imagine a secret that has been veiled in secrecy for thousands of years being revealed in a flash of insight which is so remarkable as to totally boggle the mind? The question will be whether you have the tenacity and the ability to uncover, understand and live in The Greatest Secret Ever Hidden! Your belief system will be pushed to the wall as you read this book, and for you, it will be a matter of life and death, as you attempt to grapple with the astounding truth revealed in The Greatest Secret Ever Hidden!
Download or read book Ready For Anything written by Geoff puddefoot and published by Seaforth Publishing. This book was released on 2010-11-30 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set up in August 1905, the Royal Fleet Auxiliary unofficial motto: Ready for Anything was originally a logistic support organisation, Admiralty-owned but run on civilian lines, comprising a miscellaneous and very unglamorous collection of colliers, store ships and harbour craft. This book charts its rise in fleet strength, capability and importance, through two world wars and a technical revolution, until the time when naval operations became simply impossible without it. Its earliest tasks were mainly freighting supplying the Royal Navys worldwide network of bases but in wartime fleets were required to spend much longer at sea and the RFA had to develop techniques of underway replenishment. This did not come to full fruition until the British Pacific Fleet operated alongside the Americans in 1944-45, but by then the RFA had already pioneered many of the procedures involved. This book combines a history of the service, including many little-known wartime operations, with data on the ships, and a portrait of life in the service gleaned from personal accounts and recollections. Half way between a civilian and a military service, the RFA has never received the attention it deserves, but this book throws a long-overdue spotlight on its achievements.

Download or read book The Hebrew Letters written by Rabbi Yitzchak Ginsburgh and published by GalEinai Publication Society. This book was released on 1990 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sefer Yetzirah (the "Book of Creation"), one of the earliest Kabbalistic works, teaches that the letters of the Hebrew alphabet are the building blocks of creation. Each letter has its own significance, spiritual energy, and reason for existing. In this revised version of Rabbi Ginsburgh's best-selling The Alef-Beit, Jewish Thought Revealed Through the Hebrew Letters, he explains how each letter's name, form, and numerical value play a role in the creative process of the cosmos. He draws on the understandings of the well-known mystic, the Baal Shem Tov, in depicting how each letter has nine dimensions, with impact in three worlds--the physical, spiritual, and Divine. In every letter there is the true completion of the soul, a chance to unite consciousness with the code of creation. Includes glossary, footnotes, and index.
Download or read book The Hidden Church of the Holy Graal written by Arthur Edward Waite and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-07-10 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 13th century, over a few decades, a huge literature emerged around an unlikely tale. Survivors of the core of early Christianity make a perilous journey to Western Europe. They begin a hidden bloodline, preserve immensely powerful relics of the crucifixion, and carry a secret which, if revealed, would turn the established church on its head. A.E. Waite gets to the core of the Grail legend, an interwoven mass of narratives which started with seeds of pagan folklore and grew into a massive allegorical Christian epic.
