Download or read book Sleeping with Lions A Spiritual Awakening written by Netta Pfeifer and published by . This book was released on 2014-10-22 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Sleeping with Lions, the author takes you on a spiritual safari that started in her difficult childhood with a mentally ill mother. One of her earliest memories is of wanting to know, what is love? When she was eight years old, she had a vision of a beautiful man with what she thought was a towel on his head. He became her Guardian Angel, her inner voice. Little did she know that the answer to her question, as told in Sleeping with Lions, was right there in that vision. Twenty years later, she saw the wildly popular film called Born Free. The story of how Joy and George Adamson rehabilitated their pet lioness Elsa and returned her to a wild life in Kenya spoke to the author of an unconditional, letting-go kind of love, the kind of love for which she had been searching. She wrote a fan letter to the Adamsons, and Joy replied. Leaving her one-of-a-kind job as Executive Secretary to a top Hollywood motion picture talent agent, after corresponding with Joy for two years, she set out for Africa. Far from finding love at Joy's camp, where she worked as her assistant for six months, the author encountered a woman whose mood swings and volatility were eerily reminiscent of her own mother's mental illness. In the end, Africa, Joy, and George Adamson, and their cheetahs and lions, served as a bridge for what became the real purpose of the author's journey. After Joy, it took her to Nairobi where she spent three months with the Veterinarians, Drs. Sue and Tony Harthoorn. Through them she traveled to an ashram in India. In that rarified atmosphere in the foothills of the Himalayas, her quest for unconditional love and what it means to be truly free ended when she came face-to-face with her Guardian Angel, and he became her Guru.

Book excerpt: This book is about the reason for your being here in this life, in this body, in this 'now' moment. For the present time is one of a cataclysmic shift in consciousness never seen before in your history on this planet. This shift is one from a sleeping state of humanity's mass family consciousness, to one of great awakening to a higher consciousness of connection; to the one spirit which permeates and gives life to all creation in your universe. This is a time long prophesised, as this one shared higher consciousness awakens in you, towards the realisation of the beauty and clarity of who you all truly are. For who you are is pristine, perfect, consciousness. Never tainted by anything which you or your ancestors have ever said or done - including lifetimes long preceding this one in which you now find yourselves. This book is presented here as a call to each soul on the cusp of this awakening. To quite simply help to remind each person, that they are a magnificent, radiant soul of love. Connected to infinite wisdom. And that they are now returning to this remembering - long lost in the sands of time - to help humanity move forward as a wave of awakened beings. Sharing the one consciousness which once slumbered. But now - like a lion roars awake - to facilitate and create the new world the creator has in store for Planet Earth.

Download or read book Human Race Get Off Your Knees written by David Icke and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Icke marks his 20th year of uncovering astounding secrets and suppressed information with the publication of his most amazing book yet: Human Race Get off Your Knees : The Lion Sleeps No More. He takes the manipulation of the human race and the nature of reality to still new levels of understanding and he calls for humanity to rise from its knees and take back the world from the sinister network of families and non-human entities that covertly control us from cradle to grave. His most staggering revelation is that the Earth and the collective human mind is manipulated from the Moon, which, he says, is not a 'heavenly body, but an artificial construct - a gigantic 'spacecraft' (probably a hollowed-out 'planetoid') - which is home to the extraterrestrial group that has been manipulating humanity for aeons. Humanity is at a fork in the road and it is time to make a choice. Are we going to awaken to our true genius and potential as Infinite Consciousness? Or are we going to remain entrapped in body/mind and the manufactured illusions of the Moon Matrix? It is time to shake off the shackles, stop being Pavlov's dogs and grab reality by the balls and wake up to who we are truly meant to be.
Download or read book Smile at Fear written by Chögyam Trungpa and published by Shambhala Publications. This book was released on 2010-10-05 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Insights and strategies for claiming victory over fear, from “one of the most remarkable and brilliant teachers of modern times” (Jack Kornfield, author of A Path with Heart) Many of us, without even realizing it, are dominated by fear. We might be aware of some of our fears—perhaps we are afraid of public speaking, of financial hardship, or of losing a loved one. Chögyam Trungpa shows us that most of us suffer from a far more pervasive fearfulness: fear of ourselves. We feel ashamed and embarrassed to look at our feelings or acknowledge our styles of thinking and acting; we don’t want to face the reality of our moment-to-moment experience. It is this fear that keeps us trapped in cycles of suffering, despair, and distress. In Smile at Fear, Chögyam Trungpa offers us a vision of moving beyond fear to discover the innate bravery, trust, and delight in life that lies at the core of our being. Drawing on the Shambhala Buddhist teachings, he explains how we can each become a spiritual warrior—a person who faces each moment of life with openness and fearlessness.

For each story, the author offers interpretations of his experiences poised as questions, reflections, and inquiries. In this way we are invited to participate on his quest for self-realization, including successes, failures, struggles, and enigmas. A deeply personal and intimate portrayal of a life’s journey through a somatic wisdom, this insightful memoir depicts the immeasurable wealth that teachers, practices, vulnerability, and community can offer the sincere seeker on an embodied spiritual path.
Download or read book Black Lion written by Sicelo Mbatha and published by Jonathan Ball Publishers. This book was released on 2021-10-15 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My name is Sicelo Cabangani Mbatha. My wilderness name is Black Lion. I am the black lion who helps people discover the wild animal within. I am the black lion who roars for peace and harmony on Great Mother Earth. I am the black lion, alive in the wilderness. Wilderness guide Sicelo Mbatha shares the wisdom he has gained from a lifetime's intimate association with Africa's wildest nature. The story begins with a traumatic childhood experience that should have turned Sicelo against the surrounding wilderness. Instead, he was irresistibly drawn to it. As a volunteer at Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Park, close encounters with buffalo, lion, elephant and other animals taught him to see with his heart and set him on a lifelong journey of spiritual awakening. Drawing from his Zulu culture and his own yearning to better understand humanity's relationship with itself and with nature, Sicelo has forged a new path, disrupting the conventional approach to nature with an immersive, respectful and transformative way of being in the wilderness. Both memoir and philosophical reflection, Black Lion – co-written with author and environmentalist Bridget Pitt – is a reminder of how much we need the wilderness for our emotional and spiritual survival. 'A remarkable story ... poetic and beautifully written. It goes to the heart of the meaning of ecological literacy.' – DR IAN McCALLUM, SPECIALIST WILDERNESS GUIDE
