Download or read book The Heartfulness Way written by Kamlesh D. Patel and published by New Harbinger Publications. This book was released on 2018-06-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A must-read for anyone interested in incorporating meditation into their lifestyle.” ––Sanjay Gupta, MD, chief medical correspondent for CNN Heartfulness is an ideal, a spiritual way of living by and from the heart that is inclusive of all ideologies, beliefs, and religions. In this heart-centered book, a student in conversation with his teacher, Kamlesh D. Patel—affectionately known as Daaji, the fourth and current spiritual guide of the century-old Heartfulness tradition—present a unique method of meditation with the power to facilitate an immediate, tangible spiritual experience, irrespective of a person’s faith. Our modern, fast-paced world can be an overwhelming place. Every day, we’re bombarded with messages telling us that in order to be happy, fulfilled, and worthy, we must be better, do more, and accumulate as much material wealth as possible. Most of us move through our busy lives with our minds full of these ideas, multitasking as we strive to navigate the responsibilities and expectations we must meet just to make it through the day. But what if there is another way? What if, rather than letting the busyness of life overtake our minds, we learn to be heartful instead? Based on Daaji’s own combination of approaches and practices for the modern seeker—which draws from the teachings of Sahaj Marg, meaning “Natural Path”—Heartfulness is a contemporized version of the ancient Indian practice of Raja Yoga, a tradition that enables the practitioner to realize the higher Self within. While many books describe refined states of being, The Heartfulness Way goes further, providing a pragmatic course to experience those states for oneself, which, per the book’s guiding principle, is “greater than knowledge.” Heartfulness meditation consists of four elements—relaxation, meditation, cleaning, and prayer—and illuminates the ancient, defining feature of yogic transmission (or pranahuti), the utilization of divine energy for spiritual growth and transformation. Using the method, detailed practices, tips, and practical philosophy offered in this book, you’ll reach new levels of attainment and learn to live a life more deeply connected to the values of the Heartfulness way—with acceptance, humility, compassion, empathy, and love.

Download or read book Rapture written by Shakti Sundari and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-09-25 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: RAPTURE is the book I wish I'd been given as a shy, horny teenager, with no clue about sex and no female role models of an empowered sensualista. It's the book I wish I'd had by my bedside, when my married sex life bored me to tears and I went seeking relief in the arms of a lover. Rapture is all the things I wish I'd known as I kept on giving my power, pleasure and heart away to unavailable men and reinforcing the belief, that I was broken. And oh, how I would have cried with relief to read what Rapture has to say when painful postpartum sex drove a wedge between me and my second husband. Rapture is the guide I wish I'd had, as my sexual energy awakened without a context or seasoned mentor to show me how to integrate my experience. It's the book I would still turn to now, to remind me of who I really am and what I'm here for, in those moments, when I forget my juiciness, joy and magnificence. Like most women, my sexuality was formed by a family and culture, that had no clue what the Divine Feminine or Sacred Sexuality is. And so the reflection I absorbed was shadowed, shameful, dysfunctional and diminishing. Painfully obfuscating my true nature. Has any woman on the planet escaped this? In writing RAPTURE, I'm offering women a new reflection, rooted in awareness, love, wholeness and the delicious celebration of your unfettered, sensuality and wild aliveness. As well as questions for enquiry and practices to deepen your transformation and embodiment. My hope is that you'll read it, then give it to your daughters and grand-daughters, so that, together, we may stand once again in the light of our radiance, beauty, ecstasy and authentic power. If you'd like to go deeper with this material, I offer an accompanying course, as well as one-to-one mentoring. Visit my website: www.shaktisundari.com to find out more.

Download or read book Soul Sex written by Pavitra and published by ShellDen Pub.. This book was released on 2004 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sexual adventure about a New Zealand girl traveling the world in search of the ultimate sexual experience. 12 chapters and 12 different countries. Along the way she has a lot of sexual and spiritual awakenings and in the end discovers Soul Sex. "Reading Soul Sex is an outrageous experience. The sense of adventure, the awareness of human sexuality, and the close focus on the chakras and their physical experience makes for a dizzying read as you follow the voice of the narrator through the outback of Australia, African jungles and the deserts of the Middle East. All this from the perspective of a woman. Be it fiction or not, just imagining a woman free to move physically through the world alone and unafraid is a breath of fresh air. The bravado and strength that comes through the story is empowering, as well as being erotic and entertaining. Pavitra has taken a new approach to timeless material and refreshed it in such a way that the reader is hardly conscious of their assimilation of information. With the narrator we make our way through the workings of the chakras, the differences in global cultures and, of course, sex. Without a moment of lecturing, the narrator reminds us of the importance of living every moment and of honoring oneself, as well as a reminder to get out into the world to see the amazing array of cultures, ways of living, environments and sensations. A very special personal and touching story about the discovery of the self and a highly recommended read." - Vision Magazine, CA.

Download or read book Living Brave written by Shannon Dingle and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2021-07-06 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Shannon’s struggle, defiance, strength, and power emanate from every page. That kind of brave can be trusted." — Glennon Doyle, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author of Untamed and Founder of Together Rising For all women looking to find “hope in a hopeless world and bravery in an age that seems to lack it,” comes a searing memoir by Shannon Dingle, a writer and disability advocate who has navigated loss, trauma, abuse, spiritual reawakening, and deep pain—and come out the other side still hopeful. Shannon Dingle has experienced more than her fair share of tragedy and trauma in her life, including surviving sexual abuse and trafficking as a child that left her with lasting disabilities and experiencing faith shifts that put her at odds with the evangelical church that had been her home. Then, in July 2019, Shannon’s husband was tragically killed by a rogue wave while the family was on vacation. The grief of the aftermath of losing her love and life partner sits at the heart of Living Brave, where Shannon’s searing, raw prose, illustrates what it looks like to take brave steps on the other side of unimaginable loss. Through each challenge, she reveals the ways she learned to walk through them to the other side, and find courage even through the darkest moments. Living Brave gives women permission to wrestle with difficult topics, to use their voice, to take a stand for justice, to honor the wisdom of their bodies, and to enact change from a place of strong faith.

Download or read book Christian Mysticism s Queer Flame written by Michael Bernard Kelly and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-08-21 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is the Christian mystical tradition a relic of another time, shaped by celibates for celibates, unable to engage meaningfully with people of our time who embrace their corporeality and sexuality as crucial aspects of their journey towards union with God? This book reflects in serious theological depth and detail on the spiritual and sexual journeys of gay men of mature and committed Christian faith, employing the Christian mystical tradition as the lens and the interlocutor in this process. This study examines the major themes and stages of the mystical tradition as outlined by Evelyn Underhill, but also including more recent work by Ruth Burrows, Thomas Merton and Constance Fitzgerald. Using methods of qualitative research, it then considers the texts of in-depth interviews conducted with men, most of whom are theologians or spiritual leaders with a deep Catholic faith, and all of whom are openly, self-affirmingly gay. Finally, it employs Ricoeur’s hermeneutical theory to engage in a creative theological conversation between the traditional mystical stages and themes and these men’s lives, as described in their interviews. This is a unique study that brings together ancient spirituality with contemporary lived religion. As such, it will be of interest to scholars of religious studies, theology, Christian mysticism and spirituality, and queer studies. It will be of particular interest to those teach spiritual direction and to all who seek new ways to engage with the spiritual lives of LGBTIQ+ people.

Book excerpt: Rediscover the lost ancient mystery teachings of the Cosmic Womb • Explains how each of us has a holographic blueprint of the Womb of Creation, our spiritual Womb • Offers practices to help awaken your spiritual Womb, experience the Womb of God within, and activate the Womb’s sacred magic of creation and manifestation • Looks at the power of the moon and its connection to sacred Womb Consciousness • Explores how the lost Womb mystery teachings were encoded in folk and fairy tales, the legends of the Holy Grail, and the traditions of Mary Magdalene and Sophia • Includes access to three guided Womb Awakening audio journeys The Ancients lived by a feminine cosmology of creation, where everything was birthed and dissolved through a sacred universal Womb. Within each of us, whether female or male, lies a holographic blueprint of this Womb of Creation, connecting us to the Web of Life. By awakening your spiritual Womb, the holy of holies within the temple of your body, you can reconnect to the transformative energy of Womb Consciousness and reclaim your sacred powers of creation and love. Drawing on mythical and spiritual traditions from almost every culture, Dr. Azra and Seren Bertrand reconstruct the moon-based feminine mystery teachings of a lost global Womb religion, tracing the tradition all the way back to the Neanderthals and beyond. They explore how these teachings were encoded in the symbolism of folk and fairy tales; the legends of the Holy Grail; the traditions of Mary Magdalene and Sophia; the maiden, queen, and crone archetypes; and the teachings of alchemy and the chakras. They show how sages and shamans across the globe all secretly spoke of the Cosmic Womb and the sacred creative powers of Moon Blood. The authors look at the power of the Moon and its connection to sacred Womb Consciousness, offering meditations and practices to help awaken your spiritual Womb and activate its sacred magic of creation and manifestation. They explain how to activate the energetic gateways of the Womb and merge the heart and Womb to make sexual union the highest sacrament of love. Revealing how we must reconnect with the Divine Feminine to rebirth the Divine Masculine and restore balance to our world, they show how, as we reawaken the powerful ancient path of the Womb Mysteries, we help return our world to harmony with the wild, untamed creative flows and cyclical rhythms of the cosmos.
