Download or read book Ultimate Journey written by Robert A. Monroe and published by Doubleday Books. This book was released on 1994 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In 1958, a successful businessman named Robert Monroe began to have experiences that drastically altered his life. Unpredictably, and without his willing it, Monroe found himself leaving his physical body to travel via a "second body" to locales far removed from the physical and spiritual realities of his life. He was inhabiting a place unbounded by life or death." "Monroe chronicled these out-of-body experiences in two landmark works, Journeys Out of the Body and Far Journeys. Now, in Ultimate Journey, he takes us farther than we imagined possible." "Ultimate Journey charts the area that lies "over the edge," beyond the limits of our physical world. Monroe presents us with a map of the "interstate," the route that opens to us when we leave our physical lives, with its entry and exit points, signposts and hazards. He tells us how he found the route and traveled it, and how he uncovered the reason for his pioneering expedition. This is a journey that reveals basic truths about the meaning and purpose of life - and of what lies beyond." "Robert Monroe combines records of his own experiences with those of others who have followed his route at the Monroe Institute in Virginia to make Ultimate Journey an exhilarating reading experience - the masterwork of a daring and original thinker and explorer."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book The Journey to Your Ultimate Self written by Rabbi Shmuel Reichman and published by Mosaica Press. This book was released on 2022-01-17 with total page 672 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone will agree that a story needs an ending; unless a story goes somewhere, it’s pointless. The purpose of a set-up is to lead toward a conclusion, toward a destination. A story without an ending, without a purpose, is not a story worth telling. The same is true for our lives: we need a destination. We are all part of a larger story, but we’re also writing our own individual stories. Hashem created us in this world with unlimited potential, but that was only the “set-up” ― the beginning of our story. Without a purposeful destination, a clear goal, and a deeper understanding of who we are and who we are meant to be, the set-up lacks true meaning. We need to make this a meaningful journey ― a story of growth, creativity, and contribution. This book is written to help you along your personal journey, to help you become the ultimate version of yourself. As you learn through this sefer, plant the ideas within your mind and soul, and bring them to life. Make your life a meaningful journey, an extraordinary story.

Download or read book Ultimate Journey written by Richard Bernstein and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2001 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard Bernstein's story of his long journey through Asia is at once a memoir of adventurous travel and a record of cultural discovery and spiritual quest. In the year 629, a greatly revered Chinese Buddhist monk, Hsuan Tsang, set out across Asia in search of the Buddhist Truth, to settle what he called the "perplexities of my mind." Nearly a millennium and a half later, Richard Bernstein retraces the monk's steps: from the Tang dynasty capital at Xian through ancient Silk Road oases, over forbidding mountain passes to Tashkent, Samarkand, and the Amu-Darya River, across Pakistan to the holiest cities of India--and back. Juxtaposing his experiences with those of Hsuan Tsang, Bernstein reconstructs the hazards and glories of this long and sinuous route, comparing present and past. The monk described what he saw and experienced: landscapes, customs, and, above all, people and the variety of religious beliefs held by those he met. So does our present-day author--taking us to Buddhist cave temples, to the holy places of the Buddha's own life, to the ruins of the Gandharan civilization in Pakistan, to the university in the Ganges Valley where Hsuan Tsang studied. He too encounters extraordinary figures-- among them a German monk in Bodhgaya, a down-and-out maharaja, and a supposed reincarnation of Shiva. And he follows the path of Hsuan Tsang not only in physical but in contemplative ways, reflecting on the mysteries and paradoxes of Buddhist philosophy and on the nature of the Ultimate Truth that was Hsuan Tsang's goal. Ultimate Journey is a vivid, profoundly felt account of two stirring adventures--one in the past and one in the present--in pursuit of illumination.

Download or read book Light on Life written by B.K.S. Iyengar and published by Rodale Books. This book was released on 2006-09-19 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: B.K.S. Iyengar--hailed as "the Michelangelo of yoga" (BBC) and considered by many to be one of the most important yoga masters--has spent much of his life introducing the modern world to the ancient practice of yoga. Yoga's popularity is soaring, but its widespread acceptance as an exercise for physical fitness and the recognition of its health benefits have not been matched by an understanding of the emotional, intellectual, and spiritual development that the yogic tradition can also offer. In Light on Life, B.K.S. Iyengar brings readers this new and more complete understanding of the yogic journey. Here Iyengar explores the yogic goal to integrate the different parts of the self (body, emotions, mind, and soul), the role that the yoga postures and breathing techniques play in our search for wholeness, the external and internal obstacles that keep us from progressing along the path, and how yoga can transform our lives and help us to live in harmony with the world around us. For the first time, Iyengar uses stories from his own life, humor, and examples from modern culture to illustrate the profound gifts that yoga offers. Written with the depth of this sage's great wisdom, Light on Life is the culmination of a master's spiritual genius, a treasured companion to his seminal Light on Yoga.

This book offers perspectives on death and dying from all major religions, written by experts in each of those religions. Focusing on the major world traditions, it offers important information about what death and dying means to those practicing these faiths. The second part of the book adds a necessary and truly unique perspective - a personal look at how people actually die in the various world religions, as told by a hospital chaplain, with anecdotes and experiences that bring the death process to life, so to speak. Each chapter engages the theology of each religion, giving quotes from the literature of their respective scriptural traditions, to explain the process of dying, death, and the afterlife. In doing so, each author draws on the history of his respective tradition and looks at real-life figures, exemplars of the tradition, showing how practitioners view death and hope to one day engage the death process themselves.

If you are now struggling with some issues, it is good that they have come up for scrutiny and healing. You may not realize this yet, but you too are a powerful, loving, manifesting God/Goddess, and you lack nothing. You are the spark waiting to burst into the full flame of creation. I wish you the very best on your own awakening process, your own Journey back to Source. James Gilliland
