Download or read book Talisman Second Edition written by Thomas G. Bandy and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-09-28 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mentoring is the primary vehicle for spiritual insight and holistic growth today, and Talisman is written from the perspective of a mentee reflecting on the teachings of his/her mentor. It ends with the mentee becoming the mentor. This is why the second edition of this book is shorter, with the second section significantly revised. Originally, the second section took the reader back in time, to follow some of the dialogue Echo remembered. Most readers, however, were intrigued by Echo and wanted to go forward in time. They intuited correctly that the voice of “Echo” was a composite of real people. What happened to Echo? So the first section of this book remains an assessment of the spiritual quest for God in the postmodern world. It explores the significance of incarnation, but in the context of the power and depth of being rather than any dogmatic point of view: experience and mystery over knowledge and certainty. The goal is not to answer questions of existence, but to sustain the courage to be and provide reason to hope. The second section of the book introduces a methodology to reflect on one’s position vis-à-vis the “eternal” in any particular “now.” Echo not only continues to grow personally, but helps other spiritual travelers understand their own quest for God: Life-on-the-Edge, Life-in-Between, and Life-at-Peace. Meditation on the principles expressed through the “talisman” helps the spiritual traveler see where they have been, and discern where they are going. A talisman can be any form (object, song, data, etc.) that is grasped by Unconditional Being to become a portal linking finite yearning to infinite meaning. Here the talisman is a six-pointed star which has mystical significance for many religions. But whatever your talisman is, it will help you experience the nearness of God, in your unique cultural context, and find hope.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the gripping fourth installment of The Leclair Witch Chronicles, "The Saturnian Talisman" plunges readers back into the enchanting and perilous world of The Enlightened. As the saga of Cassandra, Alistair, and their coven continues, they find themselves in a reality fractured by time loops and overshadowed by an unseen menace. The once-familiar town of Ravenswood now harbors a secret, set into motion by the enigmatic Saturnian Talisman, an artifact with the power to manipulate time itself. The Enlightened face a formidable challenge: to unravel the mystery of the recurring loops and confront the sinister forces that manipulate them from the shadows. In a race against time, where each loop brings new threats and uncovers buried betrayals, the group's loyalty and resolve are tested. The discovery of an old hermit in the mountains, who holds the key to the Talisman's true power, adds a glimmer of hope. But as they edge closer to the root event that triggered the temporal chaos, they find their path fraught with deception, danger, and the resurgence of old foes, including the formidable Kokb'ael and Cordelia Blackwood. "The Saturnian Talisman" is a tale of magic, mystery, and the enduring battle against the darkness within and beyond. With the fabric of reality at stake, The Enlightened must navigate through treacherous alliances, confront their deepest fears, and face a future where the boundaries of time and reality blur. The journey to restore balance demands sacrifices, and some may be pulled into realms beyond comprehension. Prepare for a mesmerizing adventure where each twist and turn leads to a revelation, and the fate of worlds hangs in the balance. This is a story that will leave readers questioning the nature of time, power, and the sacrifices we make for the ones we love.

Book excerpt: The Wraithwood's Whisper: A Tale of Forgotten Souls and Unseen Shadows In the heart of the Wraithwood, where reality merged with magic and the unexplained, an eclipse cast an ominous darkness. Adam Smith and his companions, standing amidst the ancient trees, felt the triumph of lifting the curse sour into a choking fog of dread. Something had stirred with the alignment of the stars, something that whispered its disdain through the shivering leaves. Their hard-won peace shuddered beneath the weight of an anticipated peril. Marion, her voice the thread connecting worlds, intuited a harrowing truth -- the forest's release from one torment may have awakened another. The woods, abuzz with new apprehension, demanded of its protectors a readiness for the unknown trials that lurked in twilight's embrace. The eclipse was no mere celestial whim; it was a forewarning. A darkness retreated, yet as the eclipse's shadow passed, a silence bore down. It clawed at the victory, suggesting their quest was not complete. What of those vanished, swallowed by enigmas, surrendering their echoes to an eternity among the Wraithwood's murmurs? The group, bound by a collective resolve, faced an unaddressed mystery: the fate of the long-lost souls they had not yet returned to the light. Their journey had cleansed the land, but could they restore its heart fully if whispers of the vanished remained unanswered? As the celebratory songs of mythical creatures succumbed to the woodland's troubling hush, Dr. Rivera proposed a séance. Together, amid the forest's central sanctum, surrounded by the remnants of supernatural struggle, they lit candles that flickered like the feeble hope of the forgotten. Holding hands, they embarked on a spectral summoning, casting their call deep into the shroud between realms. The spirits, liberated from the inescapable in-between, embraced the light cast by their living counterparts, dissipating into tranquillity. Clara, the woman whose legacy had steered them through shadows, offered a glance that bridled a thousand unspoken gratitudes before stepping through the luminescent threshold. In releasing the ghastly remnants, the Wraithwood exhaled. The land was not only purified of curses; its ethereal inhabitants had found solace, passing through the lanterns' beacon into the dawn beyond. Yet the shadow's omen lingered, an insidious whisper probing the fringes of their consciousness; they were acutely aware that this respite could be temporary. They conferred amongst themselves; their respite might be fleeting. A vigil had to be established -- guarding against the return of darkness, prepared for the eventualities of an inscrutable future. In the newfound silence spoke a tacit pact: they would remain the sentinels of the Wraithwood, the human bulwark against an unassailable dusk. Their departure from the séance's solemnity was a silent testament to their unwavering guardianship. Shadows behind them not omens of threats, but proof of light prevailing and unity strengthened. For in the heart of Wraithwood, amid the echoes of those who had vanished, lay the unshakable truth that light endures, that forgotten whispers find voice, and that even in the darkest of woods, there will always be those who stand firm for the dawn.

Book excerpt: Sudan has been in the headlines for all the wrong reasons. After decades of civil war, rebel uprisings and power struggles, in 2011 it gave birth to the world’s newest country – South Sudan. But it’s not been an easy transition, and the secession that was meant to pave the path to peace, has plunged the region into further chaos. In this updated edition of his ground-breaking investigation, Jok Madut Jok delves deep into Sudan’s culture and history, isolating the factors that continue to cause its fractured national identity. With moving first-hand testimonies, Jok provides a decisive critique of a region in turmoil, and addresses what must be done to break the tragic cycle of racism, poverty and brutality that grips Sudan and South Sudan.
