Book excerpt: Desy was a unique chimera, part Organic, part Genetic. She had been created in a lab, and looked nothing like her family. She grew up listening to her brothers tell a family legend that had been handed down through many generations. A story that she was not part of. The legend promised that someday a brilliant orb of light would appear. And, on that day a mystical transformation would take place. A selected ancestor of the ancient past would find a special person, and together they would travel to a place beyond tomorrow. Now, Desy's world was about to come to an end. It had been abused for too many generations, and there was no longer any hope for a future. As Desy sat and cried under a scraggly tree, she unknowingly wrapped her fingers around a shiny stone fragment. Suddenly, her world spun and disappeared, leaving her swirling inside a purple mist. When she stopped spinning, she found herself somewhere just beyond tomorrow.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every one of us has a destiny. Writing this book is part of my destiny that places knowledge among the priorities of my work. This text is dedicated to what the Masters of Light of high level have been transmitting to me for around three years. Its main feature is to make man understand that we are at a moment in our history in which we need to return to true knowledge, or more so, to a way of seeing and interpreting the reality of creation which does not start solely from mans point of view, but from a wider vision which comes from the spirit world. This book talks about a re-opening to a different way of knowing and begins to retrieve some aspects of this true knowledge. Among them, certain tools of knowledge shall be rediscovered such as the voyages of the mind in a non-rational setting or intuition or the recognition and interpretation of signs which a wider reality continually shows us. The main features of human knowledge will be analyzed, its limits, its openings and the urgings it is subjected to in order to continuously exceed itself (miracles, the sense of mystery). It attains the understanding of what should be true knowledge, the use of the symbol and the possibility of fitting into a time which is beyond the linear time we are so used to. Some aspects of this knowledge such as the mental and energetic dynamics of thought, a new concept of truth, a new concept of the relationship between good and evil, love, death, union and path, will be introduced. This book should entice us to intuit the existence of a much vaster Creation than the one we are used to and to lay the basis for a more correct interpretation of it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Destiny has placed knowledge among the priorities of my work. This text, the third in a series, is dedicated to what some very high level Masters of Light have been transmitting to me for several years. It represents a chapter of my voyage into knowledge; knowledge that comes from a wider view of worldly things than that which is normally available to man, new knowledge but at the same time ancient. Here I approach the study of three ancient artifacts. I analyze the famous Zodiac of Dendera in Egypt, a very much studied but at the same time misunderstood bas-relief that I later renamed the Great Message of Dendera, for the incredible meaning that I found in it. Then I approach the study of the Sumerian Weld Blundell prism, a terracotta prism with cuneiform writing, the translation of which has left all the researchers who have been challenging themselves with its interpretation confused to say the least: it is an absurd list of multi-millennial antediluvian kings. Finally, I analyze a little known monument of Copacabana, on Lake Titicaca in Bolivia, called the Horca del Inca, which I then renamed the Antenna of Copacabana. The analysis of these findings initially took place with the attitude of the meticulous researcher, but soon began to flow towards the search for the general meaning of the work analyzed. A meaning that, partly supported by logical considerations and partly by an entirely new research approach that we can call the historical-intuitive method, points out that ancient man was endowed with knowledge about the meaning and purpose of Creation much more advanced than that, which is at our disposal today. The rediscovery of this knowledge and of the method of obtaining it is the only possibility that remains to prevent our planet from being destroyed by humans who have lost track of what their purpose is and which direction to take.

Download or read book The Maiden Voyage of the Destiny Unknown written by Nicholas Ponticello and published by . This book was released on 2016-02-20 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is two hundred million years into the future, and Earth is devastated by a dying sun whose expanding photosphere has melted the surface of the planet and driven humans underground. In this world, humankind is doomed to extinction. But Marcus Fincus thinks he can secure the survival of the human species. He selects a small crew of brave voyagers from the insignificant but determined planet Earth to set out in search of a new home.Their ship, the Destiny Unknown, is designed to take care of everything. Every meal is regulated to the ounce. Every mile is charted and mapped. Everybody has his or her own unique role in this microsociety: doctor, teacher, electrician, engineer. Then the inevitable happens: the passengers start to behave as people. The captain seduces half the women on the ship, his wife develops a neurological disorder, their sixteen-year-old son runs away in the escape pod, and the doctor dies in a freak scalpel accident.The Maiden Voyage of the Destiny Unknown is a dark parable about the nature of human existence. Told from the perspective of an alien observer who follows our heroes like an unsympathetic reporter from National Geographic-he refuses to intervene when our heroes come face-to-face with deadly meteor showers, alien cannibals, and other crises that threaten to destroy them all. Funny and philosophical in its treatment of human nature, The Maiden Voyage of the Destiny Unknown not only seeks to understand the place of humans in the universe-it also seeks to address the looming question: What makes us so special?

Book excerpt: This novel aims to convey to readers the characteristics that have made these two peoples great, which although so different from each other have recognized themselves as one great soul. Ulfr, son of the Viking King, and Thorald, the only son of a very wealthy man Jarl, had bonded as children, like their fathers before them, by the oath of brotherhood. At the age of 16, following atrocious retaliation by Thorald to avenge his father's death, the King orders the two young men to leave for a long journey at sea. During the crossing they are suddenly caught in the relentless fury of nature that endangers their lives, and risks sinking their ship, Knorr, with all the crew. But fate has something different in store for them, and they reach the shores of a new, rich and fertile land: America. The confrontation with the Natives turns out to be the most important for both peoples, so different from each other, yet at the same time similar in pride and moral integrity. It is a meeting that radically changes the lives of some of them. This is a journey into a world that is now lost, where Love and Respect are the fundamental foundations of the natural right to live of the human being. Because only then is there union with everything! Translator: Barbara Maher PUBLISHER: TEKTIME

Download or read book Voyage of Mercy written by Stephen Puleo and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2020-03-03 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Puleo has found a new way to tell the story with this well-researched and splendidly written chronicle of the Jamestown, its captain, and an Irish priest who ministered to the starving in Cork city...Puleo’s tale, despite the hardship to come, surely is a tribute to the better angels of America’s nature, and in that sense, it couldn’t be more timely.” —The Wall Street Journal The remarkable story of the mission that inspired a nation to donate massive relief to Ireland during the potato famine and began America's tradition of providing humanitarian aid around the world More than 5,000 ships left Ireland during the great potato famine in the late 1840s, transporting the starving and the destitute away from their stricken homeland. The first vessel to sail in the other direction, to help the millions unable to escape, was the USS Jamestown, a converted warship, which left Boston in March 1847 loaded with precious food for Ireland. In an unprecedented move by Congress, the warship had been placed in civilian hands, stripped of its guns, and committed to the peaceful delivery of food, clothing, and supplies in a mission that would launch America’s first full-blown humanitarian relief effort. Captain Robert Bennet Forbes and the crew of the USS Jamestown embarked on a voyage that began a massive eighteen-month demonstration of soaring goodwill against the backdrop of unfathomable despair—one nation’s struggle to survive, and another’s effort to provide a lifeline. The Jamestown mission captured hearts and minds on both sides of the Atlantic, of the wealthy and the hardscrabble poor, of poets and politicians. Forbes’ undertaking inspired a nationwide outpouring of relief that was unprecedented in size and scope, the first instance of an entire nation extending a hand to a foreign neighbor for purely humanitarian reasons. It showed the world that national generosity and brotherhood were not signs of weakness, but displays of quiet strength and moral certitude. In Voyage of Mercy, Stephen Puleo tells the incredible story of the famine, the Jamestown voyage, and the commitment of thousands of ordinary Americans to offer relief to Ireland, a groundswell that provided the collaborative blueprint for future relief efforts, and established the United States as the leader in international aid. The USS Jamestown’s heroic voyage showed how the ramifications of a single decision can be measured not in days, but in decades.

Download or read book Destiny s Journey written by Alfred Döblin and published by Plunkett Lake Press. This book was released on 2019-08-16 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Destiny's Journey is a memoir reconstructed partly from notebooks that Döblin kept from the time he worked in the French Ministry of Information in the spring of 1940 and partly written without notes in Los Angeles where he took refuge during the Second World War. It tells the personal and generational story of the flight of Jewish and anti-Nazi intellectuals from Europe to America, their fear and frustration, isolation, and inability to work. Döblin’s story differs from that of other Jewish intellectuals and artists in that his family converts to Catholicism in Los Angeles. Unlike most of them, he returns to Europe as an officer with the French forces and works on denazifying German literature. The conversion narrative bridges the departure from and return to Europe. To critic John Simon, “the latter part of the book often reads like a shrill piece of Christian homiletics. But even this is not without interest, as it traces the transformation of an anarchic outsider into a dogmatic insider.” “The first part of ‘Destiny's Journey’ [about] Döblin's departure from Paris [in] 1940... is magisterial: acidly observed, saturated in telling detail, grimly comic and harrowing... with an exemplary introduction by Peter Demetz... an important, nourishing book” — John Simon, The New York Times
