Download or read book Strong Hearts Wounded Souls written by Tom Holm and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-07-22 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An all-encompassing study . . . Holm shows the interconnecting historical, social and psychological attributes of Native American veterans.” —Historynet.com At least 43,000 Native Americans fought in the Vietnam War, yet both the American public and the United States government have been slow to acknowledge their presence and sacrifices in that conflict. In this first-of-its-kind study, Tom Holm draws on extensive interviews with Native American veterans to tell the story of their experiences in Vietnam and their readjustment to civilian life. Holm describes how Native American motives for going to war, experiences of combat, and readjustment to civilian ways differ from those of other ethnic groups. He explores Native American traditions of warfare and the role of the warrior to explain why many young Indigenous men chose to fight in Vietnam. He shows how Native Americans drew on tribal customs and religion to sustain them during combat. And he describes the rituals and ceremonies practiced by families and tribes to help heal veterans of the trauma of war and return them to the “white path of peace.” This information, largely unknown outside the Native American community, adds important new perspectives to our national memory of the Vietnam war and its aftermath. “An overview of one kind of serviceman about which nothing substantive has been written: the Native American . . . A fascinating introduction to the role of military traditions and the warrior ethic in mid-20th-century [Native American] life.” —Library Journal

Download or read book Severed Souls written by Terry Goodkind and published by Tor Books. This book was released on 2014-08-05 with total page 563 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Terry Goodkind, author of the Sword of Truth series, comes Severed Souls, a New York Times best selling novel of Richard Rahl, Kahlan Amnell, and their world. From the far reaches of the D'Haran Empire, Bishop Hannis Arc and the ancient Emperor Sulachan lead a vast horde of Shun-Tuk and other depraved "half-people" into the Empire's heart, raising an army of the dead in order to threaten the world of the living. Meanwhile, far from home, Richard Rahl and Kahlan Amnell must defend themselves and their followers from a series of terrifying threats, despite a magical sickness that depletes their strength and which, if not cured, will take their lives...sooner rather than later. "Richard saw the point of a sword blade sticking out from between the man's shoulder blades. He spun back toward Richard after throwing the woman out of the opening, ready to attack. It seemed impossible, but the man looked unaffected by the blade that had impaled him through the chest. It was then, in the weak light from the fire pit off to the side, that Richard got his first good look at the killer. Three knives were buried up to their brass cross-guards in the man's chest. Only the handles were showing. Richard saw, too, the broken end of a sword blade jutting out from the center of the man's chest. The point of that same blade stuck out from the man's back. Richard recognized the knife handles. All three were the style carried by the men of the First File. He looked from those blades that should have killed the big man, up into his face. That was when he realized the true horror of the situation, and the reason for the unbearable stench of death."

Download or read book Go to the Tree Wait for Me written by T M Orecchia and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2019-09-26 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experiencing the death of someone very close to you can be devastating. Whether the death is sudden or gradual, feelings of aloneness and fear immediately enter one’s heart. Sometimes the grief can be overwhelming and crippling. Moving through this type of grief and returning to living one’s own life again may take months to years. There are some who never move through their grief and never return to their own life. In Go to the Tree, the angels address many different types of transitions to heaven that occur on earth. In so doing, the angels attempt to capture the attention of all those who are grieving who believe their grief is unique to them alone. The angels show that all grief on earth is meaningful to them as they spread their wings around all who are grieving and bring them God’s healing love. This book is a unique approach intended to help with the grieving process. It is personal and direct. It is meant not only for those who are personally hurting with grief, but also to give everyone a clearer understanding and perspective of death. It is also a peak into the ‘crossing over’ process. Go to the Tree is similar to Theresa’s third book, Whispering Messages, in that it should be read slowly and thoughtfully. Read only one or two events at a time and then reflect on the passage and the following letters contained in each. Each message in Go to the Tree is unique to the individual reading them. This is Theresa’s fifth book of working with the angels. The Enlightened Series, Hear Their Voices, Receive Their Messages and See Their Miracles, is a trilogy of short stories narrated by the angels that encompasses life’s many hardships and the choices people make to try to make their way through life.
Download or read book Jeanne Guyon s Interior Faith written by Jeanne de la Mothe Guyon and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-02-04 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In seventeenth-century France, Jeanne Guyon wrote about God, “I loved him, and I burned with his fire because I loved him, and I loved him in such a way that I could love only him, but in loving him I had no motive save himself.” She called this the pure love of God. Guyon traveled throughout Europe teaching others how to pray and her books became popular bestsellers. She expressed her Christian faith that Jesus Christ lives within our interior life. As Guyon became increasingly popular, the church and state authorities used the power of the Roman Catholic Inquisition and arrested her, charging her with heresy. Guyon spent nearly ten years incarcerated, including five years in the Bastille from 1698–1703. The state authorities judged her innocent. After her release, she lived in Blois on the Loire River and welcomed visitors from Europe and the New World who talked with her about the Christian faith. This is the first English translation of Guyon’s Commentary on the Gospel of Luke.

Download or read book So That You May Be One written by Joa Bolendas and published by SteinerBooks. This book was released on 1997-10-15 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the spring of 1957, Joa Bolendas, a mother and pastor's wife living in Switzerland, began to experience a series of visions and conversations with spiritual beings. Now available for the first time in English, this astonishing book records these conversations, which took place from 1957 to 1990, in simple, descriptive language, unembellished by interpretation. Excerpts from her journal describe the personal struggle of handling the profound information that came to her. The messages that emerge from the visions about important theological themes, such as the Grail, the rosary, icons, and the Old and New Testaments, ultimately urge us toward a new unity -- of the churches, of the forces within each individual, and of the peoples of the world.
Download or read book Descartes on Causation written by Tad M. Schmaltz and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2013-01-31 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a systematic study of Descartes' theory of causation and its relation to the medieval and early modern scholastic philosophy that provides its proper historical context. The argument presented here is that even though Descartes offered a dualistic ontology that differs radically from what we find in scholasticism, his views on causation were profoundly influenced by scholastic thought on this issue. This influence is evident not only in his affirmation in the Meditations of the abstract scholastic axioms that a cause must contain the reality of its effects and that conservation does not differ in reality from creation, but also in the details of the accounts of body-body interaction in his physics, of mind-body interaction in his psychology, and of the causation that he took to be involved in free human action. In contrast to those who have read Descartes as endorsing the "occasionalist" conclusion that God is the only real cause, a central thesis of this study is that he accepted what in the context of scholastic debates regarding causation is the antipode of occasionalism, namely, the view that creatures rather than God are the causal source of natural change. What emerges from the defense of this interpretation of Descartes is a new understanding of his contribution to modern thought on causation.
Download or read book Space and Self in Early Modern European Cultures written by David Warren Sabean and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The notion of 'selfhood' conjures up images of self-sufficiency, integrity, introspectiveness, and autonomy characteristics typically associated with 'modernity.' The seventeenth century marks the crucial transition to a new form of 'bourgeois' selfhood, although the concept goes back to the pre-modern and early modern period. A richly interdisciplinary collection, Space and Self integrates perspectives from history, history of literature, and history of art to link the issue of selfhood to the new and vital literature on space. As Space and Self shows, there have at all times been multiple paths and alternative possibilities for forming identities, marking personhood, and experiencing life as a concrete, singular individual. Positioning self and space as specific and evolving constructs, a diverse group of contributors explore how persons become embodied in particular places or inscribed in concrete space. Space and Self thus sets the terms for current discussion of these topics and provides new approaches to studying their cultural specificity.
Download or read book Rheyzoun 45 written by Donald G. Wahl and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2018-08-17 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the galaxies of the Milky Way, a spiritual high council led by its leader Ramata has been watching and monitoring the evolutionary progress of the planet Terra, our earth. Through many cosmic cycles, a planet is given an allotment of time to rise in its growth until eventually a decision is made on its destiny in its galaxy. As the end of a super cosmic cycle nears, a decision is made by the council for one last effort of planet Earth and its inhabitants to evolve to a state of love, peace, harmony, and unity. For too long, growth has been stunted through the misuse of mankinds free will, resulting in worldwide terrorism, poverty, hatred, and the evil power elite greatly influenced by the queen of darkness, Teohta. There are enough existing technologies that, with the right use and choices, could have turned life around and created a loving service and harmony, resulting in equality and success for all. A cosmic asteroid called Rheyzoun 45, twenty-five miles in length was created by Hierarchy, housing advanced beings and is on a direct course for Earth. The year is 2019, and a handful of twenty-five humans are chosen by Ramata and Hierarchy. The mission is clear: the year 2045 will determine the destiny or fate of Earth as the asteroid makes its journey to assist mankind in its last efforts to turn to the Light and make its transformation into a bright star of love, peace, and harmony . . . or not. Ramata and the Rheyzoun Buddhas prepare the twenty-five chosen ones for the greatest battle of all humanity and its planets existence.
