Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Will Destroy the Galaxy for Cash is the follow up tale to Will Save the Galaxy for Food from the mind of writer Yahtzee Croshaw (Mogworld, Jam, Differently Morphous). With the age of heroic star pilots and galactic villains completely killed by quantum teleportation, the ex-star pilot currently named Dashford Pierce is struggling to find his identity in a changing universe. Then, a face from his past returns and makes him an offer he can't refuse: take part in just one small, slightly illegal, heist, and not only will he have the means to start the new life he craves, but also save his childhood hero from certain death. What could go wrong? If you need to ask--you don't know Dashford Pierce. Before long, Pierce is surrounded by peril, and forced to partner with the very same supervillains he'd spent his heroic career thwarting. But when he's confronted by the uncomfortable truth that star pilots might not have been the force for good, they had intended to be, he begins to wonder if the villains hadn't had the right idea all along...

Book Gateways to the Soul

Download or read book Gateways to the Soul written by Serge Beddington-Behrens and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2020-07-07 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A guide on how to live more soulfully and, in so doing, transform yourself and the planet • Explores the connections between healing your personal wounds and healing the planet • Explains how embracing unitive qualities such as love, friendship, joy, courage, forgiveness, and truth, as well as facing your Shadow sides and confronting world evil, enables you to move through important gateways leading to soul • Offers a variety of transpersonal exercises, meditations, and guided visualizations Humanity is in a great crisis of soul today, but there is also much good will around. As a species, we are challenged to start embracing a new story, one that enables us to be less greedy and materialistic and to espouse peace not war, kindness not cruelty, and heart as opposed to indifference. What we need is to bring more soul into the world. In this guide about engaging in inner work to bring change into the world, Dr. Serge Beddington-Behrens reveals how the healing of our personal wounds combined with the growing of our soul life leads us directly to the addressing of world problems. Sharing inspirational stories from his own personal journey of becoming a transpersonal psychotherapist, shaman, and activist, he shows you how, by transforming your inner world, you begin creating important positive ripples that reverberate around all areas of your outer one. The exercises and meditations he has devised will not only help you heal and become more fully human but also enable you to bring a very different kind of awareness--a sacred awareness--into all areas of your everyday life. Not only will this enable you to experience more joy and meaning as you increasingly disconnect from the clutches of the system, but you will also find yourself opening your heart, reclaiming your personal power, bringing in new myths for humanity to live by, and gradually shifting away from being part of the problems in the world to becoming a core part of their solution.

Book The Outer World of Man

Download or read book The Outer World of Man written by John Brokaar and published by Digital on Demand. This book was released on 2022-07-18 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE WORLD THAT SHAPES US, WAS FIRST SHAPED BY US. THUS, TO UNDERSTAND THE WORLD, WE MUST STUDY IT FROM THE BASIS OF KNOWING OUR SELF, OUR ORIGIN AND OUR ULTIMATE PURPOSE. The Inner Evolution of Man aimed at assisting the Seeker of Truth in finding this Gnosis. Having become aware of the Self, and embraced the flow of Time, we can now begin to look upon humanity, to try and understand, the perceived reality of others that they live, sacrifice, or do harm and die for. To understand, we must apply an unbiased and open-minded focus, and choose to follow not the words and claims of a selected few, but to understand the reason and logic, in their structures and history. From the source and the firm-ground of knowing our Self, we can learn to understand The Outer World of Man, and enter the mind of the technocrat, politician, elitist and scientist, the atheist and dogmatic priest, but also that of a contemporary man. In order to accomplish this, and not lose track of the ‘greater whole’, we must also zoom out, in scope and time, as far back as we can – to the beginning of all things. This book addresses these observations, by looking at who did what, and then contemplates the WHY and HOW. Ultimately, we may believe we know ourselves, but to understand the worlds of form and formless, we must realize the constant influence their multiple dimensions have, on the physical and sensory body, our thinking-mind and psyche, and learn how our civilized order’s ever-expanding and evolving tentacles, reach for the heart to drain the soul. The contemplations in The Way of the Pilgrim, Book II: The Outer World of Man offer seeds for the truth-seeking contemplative-mind, and to guide its journey.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than two hundred years into the future, human beings are an endangered species. The planet has been battered by war, its inhabitants plagued by disease and death. Few humans survived and remained unaffected. Most changed dramatically and evolved into something else entirely. Seventeen year-old Avery is alive and unchanged. But she has not been immune to the harshness of the new world. She has lived on the run for much of her life, in terror. After fleeing the only refuge she's known for much of her life, Avery, along with her sister June and new friends, Will, Oliver and Riley forge through the forest to uncharted territory in search of a better life, in search of other survivors. But Avery soon learns that life beyond the woods is far worse than she ever imagined. Hope seems futile. But Avery refuses to surrender hope and chooses, instead, to push forward and move her group into the heart of danger, to seek out more humans. Will she and the others survive their journey into the savage lands of Planet Urth?

Book DRINKING SAPPHIRE WINE  Special Edition

Download or read book DRINKING SAPPHIRE WINE Special Edition written by Tanith Lee and published by BookRix. This book was released on 2017-08-16 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four-BEE was an Utopian city. If you didn't mind being taken care of all your long long life, having a wild time as a “jang" teenager, able to do anything you wanted from killing yourself innumerable times, changing bodies, changing sex, and raising perpetual hell, it could be heaven. But for one inhabitant there was always something askew. He/she had tried everything and yet the taste always soured. And then he/she succeeded in committing the one illegal act—and was thrown out of heaven forever. But forever is not a term any native of that robotic utopia understood. And so he/she challenged the rules, declared independence, and set out to prove that a human was still smarter than the cleverest and most protective robot... You don’t need to have read Tanith Lee's DON’T BITE THE SUN, which set the original scene, to find DRINKING SAPPHIRE WINE of the same high merit that distinguished this author’s THE BIRTHGRAVE.

Book Wild Therapy

  • Author : Nick Totton
  • Publisher : Pccs Books
  • Release : 2011
  • ISBN : 9781906254360
  • Pages : 0 pages

Download or read book Wild Therapy written by Nick Totton and published by Pccs Books. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Therapy is by nature wild; but a lot of it at the moment is rather tame. This book tries to help shift the balance back towards wildness by showing how therapy can connect with ecological thinking, seeing each species, each being, each person inherently and profoundly linked to each other. Hence we develop a sense of the endless complexity of existence; and realise that wildness, a state where things are allowed to happen of their own accord, is far more deeply complex than domesticated civilisation, just as a jungle - or even a piece of wasteland - is more complex than a garden. Psychotherapy has often opposed the cultural message 'Be in control of yourself and your environment': it has tried to help people tolerate the anxiety of not being in control - of our feelings, our thoughts, our body, our future. But the struggle over control has now reached inside the field of therapy itself: the push for management, measurement and regulation is getting stronger. On a larger scale it seems that our efforts to control the world are well on the way to wrecking it through environmental collapse: the more we try to control things, the further out of balance we push them. "Wild Therapy" offers a context for all this in the 'Neolithic bargain' whereby humans exchanged freedom and wildness for domestication and safety. Connecting the attitudes of forager cultures with contemporary Western understandings of consciousness, it delineates a mode of being present in all cultures, 'Wild Mind'; and explores how this can be supported through a 'wild therapy', bringing together a wide range of already-existing ideas and practices. It suggests that wild therapy has a role to play in the work of creating a new culture which can live well on the earth without damaging ourselves and other beings.

Book Outer Cryo Worlds

  • Publisher : Troubador Publishing Ltd
  • Release : 2021-08-28
  • ISBN : 1800465181
  • Pages : 216 pages

Download or read book Outer Cryo Worlds written by Igor Sholoiko and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2021-08-28 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Outer Cryo Worlds is a book about the fascinating world of celestial bodies with cryo, or freezing conditions. For example, with average temperatures about 200 degrees colder than Earth’s, Saturn’s moon Titan is a cryo world, one with astoundingly different sights, textures and physical forces. With such stark differences to the world, we are accustomed to, cryo worlds create a whole new universe for our imaginations, with new sightseeing adventures, sport activity potential and, who knows, maybe even extraterrestrial life. The book familiarises the reader with the concept of outer cryo worlds and their mesmerising nature. With amusing anecdotes about cryogenics and celestial bodies, it helps spark imagination and curiosity to really bring these worlds to life. Based on real facts that we know about Outer Cryo Worlds, the book takes the reader on a vivid imaginary journey of flying with tech-wings in Titan’s atmosphere or swimming in its liquid methane lakes in futuristic suits. It vividly paints the picture of what it's like to open a bottle of champagne on conquering Olympus Mons on Mars. The book also shares the author’s long-standing fascination with effects low temperatures have on life. It starts with a simple question: what happens to living organisms at low temperatures. Based on what we know about life in the deep waters of Earth, the author speculates what life would look like if it was sparked in oceans that might exist under the ice crusts of Jovian planets moons, inviting the readers on an imaginary mission of replacing tracking buoys attached to a gigantic snailfish-like creature in the abyss of Europa Ocean.

Download or read book Inneractions written by Stephen C. Paul and published by HarperOne. This book was released on 1992-06-11 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Illuminations, Stephen Paul drew from his experience as a therapist, counselor, and teacher to compose a collection of proverbs to inspire and assist those seeking personal change and renewal. Inneractions continues this process through and beyond the point of "illuminations," offering meditations and proverbs designed to enhance and sustain the growth, change, and self-acceptance that have been achieved. This book is for those who have been willing to face their personal issues and do the work necessary to remove the inhibitions, misconceptions, fears, and doubts that have limited them in the past. Stating that is now the time "to catch the rhythm and join the dance" and "to pass through the door when it opens," Inneractions provides a clear roadmap for integrating the self with the beauty of the natural world and for being able to accept and receive its gifts.
