Download or read book Children of the Raj written by Vyvyen Brendon and published by Weidenfeld & Nicolson. This book was released on 2015-04-30 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vyvyen Brendon's evocative, at times heart-tugging book, runs from the 18th century and the East India Company, through the Afghan wars, the Indian mutiny and the more settled era of the Queen Empress, and culminates in the conflict leading to Britain's hurried exit in 1947. Its subject is the young progeny of traders, soldiers, civil servants, missionaries, planters, engineers and what should be done with them. Until the coming of air travel these children often only saw their parents every few years. Then there were the children born of Anglo-Indian marriages and affairs. Sent back to Britain they were often reviled as 'darkies', 'a touch of the tar-brush'. And then there were the children educated in India. Brendon reveals appalling stories of abuse at the hands of servants. What frequently unites Brendon's wildly different subjects is their loneliness--drawing on letters, diaries, memoirs and interviews, she portrays children who had to discipline themselves to adapt (often ingeniously) to unfamiliar cultures, far away from family and forced to spend termtime in boarding schools and holidays with unfamiliar families.

Download or read book Unopened Letters from God written by Rev Robert L. Haden Jr and published by . This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This workbook, for dream groups and individuals, can transform your life. It is for the beginner, but also for those who already know and experience this reality - yet need the support, encouragement and wisdom of the dream community. Each of the 14 Chapters explores a Biblical dream in its own context, suggests a method to work that dream, and shares similar contemporary dreams with exercises leading you to your own dream "ahas." The ancient Hebrews and early Christians claimed that one of the primary ways God speaks to God's people is through dreams: not "a" way, but the "primary" way. Unfortunately, along the way, people were discouraged from taking their dreams seriously. I, too, was a non-believer in the reality of the dream world for 40 years. That was before experiencing a new spirituality for myself, 10 years' dreamwork with a Jungian analyst, attending the C. G. Jung Institute, and completing a Master's program in the use of dreams in spiritual direction. I have recorded hundreds of dreams, integrating dream work with my priestly, spiritual direction and counseling duties. The riches acquired during this incubation period led to the formation of The Haden Institute which has graduated over 500 people in dreamwork and spiritual direction. Dreams are crazy. Real crazy. They appear crazy to us because they are not literal, but rather metaphorical, like Jesus' parables. Metaphor is the primary language of the Divine. Metaphor takes us to a deeper level of awareness. Dreams are autonomous. They are like another personality in us. They have a life of their own. Amazing. Dreams deepen our belief in the afterlife. Many conversions, inventions, healings, vocational and other life changes have come through dreams as well as dangers averted and problems solved. Dreams are particularly meaningful to those who have "been around the block" those in the second half of life who have experienced dead end streets, tragedies, failures, the dark night of the soul. The dream can be our guide through this maze leading us to a place where we begin to live on a deeper level.
