Book excerpt: In the varied concatenation of life's experiences lies its essence-a journey full of joy and pain. Man comes with pristine qualities of truthfulness, simplicity, and the wonder of nature. In his birth lies his religion. It is his passage through the world that is often full of struggle; in response, he looks for a God to help him. A Beautiful Pain presents a collection of poems ruminating on joy, beauty, and the wonder of life. Meditating on life's meaning, it explores the range of human emotions, from the pain of first heartbreak to a study of the quintessence of inner luminosity. Poet Maharaj Kaul searches for the truth of life in this collection, which like life itself is multi-faceted and has a few grand themes running through it. There is a road in front of us smoother than any highway we have seen, There is music beckoning us more rapturous than we have ever heard, There is faith in us stronger than a million facts we have known, There is a light within us more luminous than the thousand exploding suns, We were born with a spirit thirsting for the infinite. -from "Quintessence of Inner Luminosity"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Warning: This book is not for the faint of heart. If you deal with triggers, please read this book with caution. Material consists of adult content and BDSM. I was sent away for protection. Pulled from a world and forced into another, I lost myself on the way. No emotion. Only walls to hide feelings that were now masked behind a barrier. Matteo Santos opened my eyes. He helped me see through the darkness that consumed my soul. He breathed life into my lungs, gripping my heart until it beat again. With a darkness of his own, it haunted him, turning him into a beautiful Master of seduction and pain. Through trust and love, we would battle our pasts together. Before they took control...completely. "Not everything is as it seems." ~ Beautiful Pain

Download or read book The Culture of Pain written by David B. Morris and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1991-09-09 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about the meanings we make out of pain. The greatest surprise I encountered in discussing this topic over the past ten years was the consistency with which I was asked a single unvarying question: Are you writing about physical pain or mental pain? The overwhelming consistency of this response convinces me that modern culture rests upon and underlying belief so strong that it grips us with the force of a founding myth. Call it the Myth of Two Pains. We live in an era when many people believe--as a basic, unexamined foundation of thought--that pain comes divided into separate types: physical and mental. These two types of pain, so the myth goes, are as different as land and sea. You feel physical pain if your arm breaks, and you feel mental pain if your heart breaks. Between these two different events we seem to imagine a gulf so wide and deep that it might as well be filled by a sea that is impossible to navigate.

Download or read book Existential Kink written by Carolyn Elliott and published by Weiser Books. This book was released on 2020-03-01 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A smart, sexy guide to embracing the repressed, tabooed, and often unwanted aspects of ourselves so we can discover our inner power and finally live the life we deserve. “We always get exactly what we want; but often, though we may not be aware of it, what we most want is dark—very dark.” Each of us has a dual nature: we are light (conscious) and dark (unconscious). The dark side of our personality—the “other,” the shadow side—is made up of what we think is our primitive, primal, negative impulses—our “existential kink.” Our existential kink also drives the dark or negative repeating patterns in our life: always choosing the abusive partner or boss, settling for less, thinking that we’re undeserving, not worthy. But it also is the source of our greatest power. In Existential Kink, Carolyn Elliott, PhD, offers a truth-telling guide for bringing our shadow into the light. Inviting us to make conscious the unconscious, Elliott asks us to own the subconscious pleasure we get from the stuck, painful patterns of our existence. Existential Kink provides practical advice and meditations so we truly see our shadow side’s “guilty pleasures,” love and accept them, and integrate them into our whole being. By doing so, Elliott shows, we bring to life the raw, hot, glorious power we all have to get what we really want in our lives.
Download or read book God Says Heal written by Gary Stuart and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2000-10 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God says, "Heal!" is a divinely inspired collection of essays reflecting the current state of affairs on Earth and how they affect the health and well-being of all living things. I've attempted to uncover some of the hidden truths (both positive and negative) that are necessary components of growth and change. It is my sincere belief that, in exposing the negative, we encourage the positive to emerge and gain strength. As a healer, I postulate that the human body is a microcosm of the whole universe. My theories attempt to reveal the internal and external forces that often create disharmony and disease in the human body. I maintain that "disease" itself can be a positive force necessary to attain health, inner harmony, balance, and growth. God says, "Heal!" focuses on the pertinent issues that we all encounter in our day-to-day lives at the dawn of this new millennium. My hope is that, by creating a more humane prespective to disease and suffering, we will awaken to the perfection of "All That Is" that resides in each and everyone of us.

Book excerpt: Perfectly Broken is a riveting story of my life after my rape. Fear and rage were my closest companions, and I teeter-tottered between the two. Even with my rapist in prison and awaiting the trial, I couldnt come to grips with my life as a victim. Spiraling out of control, knowing this was more than I could handle, I handed my situation over to God. I found peace in the stories from the Bible but still struggled with that nagging question of why me, God? A summer foreign exchange program to Spain came at the perfect time. With the court date months away, a chance to be something more than the raped girl was an answered prayer. The walls I had spent all year building came crashing down as I learned to laugh again, live again, and dance again. I realized it wasnt my situation I needed God to fix. Instead, I was the one who was broken. Piece by piece, He rebuilt me in His image.
