Download or read book Search for Mother written by Valerie Albrecht and published by . This book was released on 2010-02 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Valeries' Search for Mother is shared with a generosity of spirit which evocatively tells of her deep heart longing to connect with the who and why of mother: the mother we have, the mother we long for, the mother we become, and the mother we long to be, and to unravel the divine orchestration of mother –daughter relationship. From this longing, and through the opportunities she's had to share yoga birthing with women around the world, she began to write Search for Mother. Search for Mother is written in three trimesters, reflecting the growing foetus, the growing of a woman into mother, and the growing need for peaceful connection to mother. The writing took her to Portugal, the place of her maternal lineage - this story has become Trimester 1. And to America to study hypnotherapy and it's significance in unraveling mother. Here she had the priveledge and blessing to meet with like minded practitioners. This sharing of knowledge became Trimester 2, a body of medical and yoga information honouring the emotional and spiritual journey into motherhood, with contributions from birth workers in America, India and Australia. Also here, seven women tell of their search for connection to mother. In Trimester 3, the body talks of its' experience of “mother searching” through yoga, dreams, de ja vu, and past life meanderings. The search interweaves poetry, prose, storytelling, interview and yoga practice. Valerie discoveres that the love – rejection, disconnection - connection duality toward mother, lives in the hearts of women everywhere, and more profoundly, that mother hearts keep loving whilst holding the aching yearning for connection, despite disconnection. Crucially, Search for Mother offers women ways to come to peace and acceptance toward their mother and toward becoming mother, while also offering birthing practitioners and health organizations ways to support and assist women in their emotional and spiritual metamorphis into mother. “I offer you my “Search for Mother”, and truly hope it finds a place in yours, so you may find her, move closer to her and live peacefully with her during birthing and beyond”…Valerie Albrecht

What she doesn't know is that her sister, Nebula, is in hot pursuit. Nebula has followed Gamora to Torndune in hopes of claiming the planet's heart first and shaming her sister as vengeance for the part she played in Nebula losing her arm. While Gamora falls in with a group of miners attempting to overthrow the tyrannical mining corporation that controls their lives, Nebula allies herself with the Universal Church of Truth, whose missionaries wait on every street corner to recruit more followers and tithes for the Matriarch. Both sisters hope their alliance will give them access to one of the massive diggers capable of drilling to the center of the planet. But they closer they get to the heart of the planet—and to each other—the closer they get to uncovering the truth of what brought them there and the role they may unknowingly be playing in a twisted competition with galactic consequences.

Download or read book Beyond All Weapons written by L. Ron Hubbard and published by Galaxy Press LLC. This book was released on 2012-03-21 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Han Solo of Star Wars could learn a thing or two from Firsten Guide, the tough, wise-cracking rebel leader who’s light years ahead of his time—and about to lead his crew into a battle that’s Beyond All Weapons. Because the force is most assuredly with Firsten. He and his fellow colonizers of Mars have faced a brutal crackdown engineered by Earth’s tyrannical government. But the resourceful Firsten has developed an extraordinary new fuel that enables him and his hardy band to escape into space—and time. Escape, however, is not enough. Firsten wants revenge. But the universe is full of unexpected twists and turns. Just as Prometheus flew too close to the sun, Firsten will soon discover that when you break the laws of physics, you can get burned. Hubbard was a pioneer in his use and development of Einstein’s theories of space and time as a plot point in his fiction. In Beyond All Weapons, he explains: “As mass approaches the speed of light ... it approaches infinity. And, as mass approaches infinity, time approaches zero. It was only nine days back from Alpha. But in those nine days, six thousand years have passed by Earth.” It stands as one of the earliest—and most succinct—descriptions of the theory. Also includes the science fiction adventures Strain, the story of a space war’s brutality and one man’s struggle to keep a secret under the pain of torture, and The Invaders, in which the distant crystal mines are under attack until a technician crystallizes a unique strategy to undermine the attackers. “A thrilling space adventure ... the terror and excitement builds through to the end.” —Publishers Weekly

Book excerpt: Dominion is the first anthology of speculative fiction and poetry by Africans and the African Diaspora. An old god rises up each fall to test his subjects. Once an old woman's pet, a robot sent to mine an asteroid faces an existential crisis. A magician and his son time-travel to Ngoni country and try to change the course of history. A dead child returns to haunt his grieving mother with terrifying consequences. Candace, an ambitious middle manager, is handed a project that will force her to confront the ethical ramifications of her company's latest project—the monetization of human memory. Osupa, a newborn village in pre-colonial Yorubaland populated by refugees of war, is recovering after a great storm when a young man and woman are struck by lightning, causing three priests to divine the coming intrusion of a titanic object from beyond the sky. A magician teams up with a disgruntled civil servant to find his missing wand. A taboo error in a black market trade brings a man face-to-face with his deceased father—literally. The death of a King sets off a chain of events that ensnare a trickster, an insane killing machine, and a princess, threatening to upend their post-apocalyptic world. Africa is caught in the tug-of-war between two warring Chinas, and for Ibrahima torn between the lashings of his soul and the pain of the world around him, what will emerge? When the Goddess of Vengeance locates the souls of her stolen believers, she comes to a midwestern town with a terrible past, seeking the darkest reparations. In a post-apocalyptic world devastated by nuclear war, survivors gather in Ife-Iyoku, the spiritual capital of the ancient Oyo Empire, where they are altered in fantastic ways by its magic and power.
