Book excerpt: "Within a few weeks of arriving to live in the Agapenome - a word my sisters loftily informed me mean 'abode of love' in Greek - I had divined the way my strange new home worked, in the way that young children do so instinctively. I had liked it immediately: its vast, mostly unkempt gardens and its chapel, known simply as Eden." When Kate Barlow left postwar London with her mother and two sisters to live with her fierce grandmother in a vast, rambling gothic mansion in the country, she entered a strange and mysterious world where time seemed to have stopped still in the 1900s - and nothing was quite as it seemed. Having lived in a procession of boarding schools, six-year-old 'Kitty' revelled in the sudden freedom of a giant outdoor playground, the endless corners to explore inside the old house, and the company of the eccentric and feisty old women dressed in fashions she had only ever seen in history books. Protected by a wall of secrecy and their isolation from the outside world, it would be years before she and her sisters learned the truth: that what their formidable grandmother resided over was the remains of a bizarre religious cult founded by her grandfather which gained worldwide notoriety when he claimed to be the embodiment of the Holy Ghost. From the pulpit of the Ark of the Covenant, a church built by his adoring followers, he proclaimed that only his followers would be saved from Armageddon. Having taken her grandmother as one of the first of many 'spiritual brides' in spite of having a first wife still living within the community, this charismatic leader was a defrocked clergyman. As illegitimate children named Glory, Power and Life, Kate's mother and two uncles were shunned by the outside community and banned from attending school, a stigma that carried over to Kate and her sisters as they grew up. Interweaving the moving story of a young woman's coming of age with the fascinating tale of a man who managed to convince highly intelligent people, especially prominent women, to give up their lives and careers in his name, THE ABODE OF LOVE is proof that truth is indeed stranger than fiction.

Download or read book The Power of Love written by Osho and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2016-07-19 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most important life events is falling in love, yet we never learn about it in school. Societies and religions force us into models and thought-forms that are often in opposition to an organic model of love, which is instead institutionalised by marriage, religious affiliations, and nationalism. This results in love that is, for most people, a painful challenge in one form or another throughout life. In these modern days, where the focus shifts more and more to realising one's individual potential, Osho helps us to direct our search for love by widening our view - showing us that love has many manifestations and is not limited to the 'other'. One manifestation of love is meditation, a life-changing experience that allows the flowering of real love within oneself and toward others. The Osho Life Essentials series focuses on the most important questions in the life of the individual. Each volume contains timeless yet contemporary investigations and discussions into questions vital to our personal search for meaning and purpose. The Osho Life Essentials series focuses on questions specific to our inner life and quality of existence; for example, is it possible to have an authentic spirituality without a belief in God? What is meditation and how does it work? What can I do as an individual to make the world a better place?

Download or read book Abode of Love written by Kate Barlow and published by Fredericton, N.B. : Goose Lane Editions. This book was released on 2006 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Kate Barlow was a little girl, she moved with her mother and her older sisters to a ramshackle English mansion. They were not alone on the once-grand estate, surrounded as they were by twenty eccentric, elderly women, one of whom was her grandmother...or was she? This remarkable memoir is the true story of life inside "The A," the infamous Agapemone, named for the Greek word meaning Abode of Love. It was a religious cult founded in mid-19th century England by a defrocked clergyman who claimed to be guided personally by the Holy Ghost. Agapemonites, many of whom were wealthy, unmarried women, lived together on the estate. They believed the Second Coming was imminent and that their founder would live forever. When Henry James Prince died unexpectedly, his successor declared himself the reincarnation of Jesus Christ, an announcement which caused rioting in the streets. The book reveals the author's gradual awakening to the religious and sexual scandal that enveloped her family, as first the founder and then his heir -- Kate's grandfather -- continued the practice of taking so-called "spiritual" brides. In fact, these relationships were physical as well as spiritual, and some produced illegitimate children, Kate's mother being one of them. This first inside account of the infamous cult is also a story about family, and its lingering legacy on several generations, including Kate Barlow's own mother. It is a gripping, sometimes humourous, deeply human tale.
