Finally, she adds the outline, creating a spectacular, meaningful artwork. As always, there is a ladybug hidden in every image: she represents good luck, happiness and prosperity!

Download or read book Nine Designs for Inner Peace written by Sarah Tomlinson and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2007-12-13 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A complete guide to creating planetary yantras to access their healing and centering benefits • Provides easy-to-follow instructions to create the yantras • Serves as an introduction to active meditation, which focuses the mind while the body is engaged in a meditative activity The tantric art of drawing or painting the nine designs known as yantras is an ancient practice of active meditation that releases positive healing and centering effects. Each of the nine designs corresponds to one of the nine qualities of body and mind essential to well-being: radiance, nourishment, passion, intellect, expansion, bliss, organization, uniqueness, and spirituality. From the basic elements of the square, the circle, and the triangle, dynamic visual meditations unfold as the practitioner works clockwise from the outer elements inward toward the central point of stillness, or bindu, the source of happiness within. An accompanying mantra is recited while preparing each yantra to fully engage the senses in the meditative process. Creating the design that “speaks” most to the practitioner enables its unique healing quality to be transmitted. For example, working on the yantra named “Radiance” cultivates optimism and the self-confidence to succeed in one’s endeavors, while “radiating,” or imparting, one’s inner light to others. This workbook provides an important resource for active meditation, a practice revered for its effectiveness in revealing the spiritual underpinnings of everyday life. The active participation of the body in meditation while creating the nine planetary yantras raises to the level of spiritual ritual the practitioner’s intention toward wakefulness and gives access to profound states of healing integration.

Download or read book My Peace I Offer You written by Roger J. Chiang and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2009-01-05 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The entire country followed the disappearances of three women who vanished from one of Washington, DC's popular neighborhoods. In 1999, a beautiful, young Justice Department attorney, Joyce Chiang, disppeared from the ominous streets of our Nation's Capitol. Three months later, Joyce's corpse was discovered in the murky waters of the Potomac River. The FBI and police were only able to theorize how Joyce died. Two years later, Chandra Levy disappeared a few blocks from where Joyce vanished. Joyce's murder is brought back into the spotlight, but an egomaniacal police chief discredits the case, blasphemously professing that Joyce committed suicide to discount the media's assertion that a serial killer was lurking. Joyce's brother, Roger, goes on the offensive to set the record straight. Despite the tragedy, author Roger J. Chiang learns a life lesson that is transformed into "My Peace I Offer You." Chiang evangelizes God's Commandment of love for neighbor and revives the lost virtue of brotherhood.
Download or read book The Color of the Elephant written by Christine Herbert and published by Genz Publishing. This book was released on 2022-01-04 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An outstanding new voice in memoir, Christine Herbert takes the reader on a "time-machine tour" of her Peace Corps volunteer service as a health worker and educator from 2004-2006 in Zambia. Rather than a retrospective, this narrative unfolds in the present tense, propelling the reader alongside the memoirist through a fascinating exploration of a life lived "off the grid." At turns harrowing, playful, dewy-eyed and wise, the author's heart and candor illuminate every chapter, whether she is the heroine of the tale or her own worst enemy. Even at her most petulant, the laugh-out-loud humor scuppers any "white savior" mentality and lays bare the undeniable humanity-and humility-of the storyteller. Through it all, an undeniable love for Zambia-its people, land and culture-shines through. A must-read for the armchair adventurer, a book about Zambia - a personal Peace Corps Memoir.
