Download or read book My Journey written by Swami Vishwakanjalochanananda and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2019-12-10 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is not just another autobiography. This is a life journey of an ordinary man. Every person is experiencing difficulties in their lives, but how much we are learning from those difficulties and obstacles that we find along the way is what the Author is trying to convey in these pages. The idea of the book is to select some episodes which moulded and shaped the Author to find the meaning in life and walk the path towards the inner freedom as an inspiration and guidance for all who have been awakened to the idea that there is something more than meets the eye. This is a spiritual book in a sense that we are not just a bag of flash and bones and that every person has a spiritual life as well. There is an intelligence that guides and regulates our life. For a lack of better term we call it Spirit, or God. And the aim is to connect to that Being or Intelligence and to achieve the full potential that we are all entitled to as human beings. We have to live our life so that we can, first and foremost, realise ourselves as human beings, and from there, we can contemplate our divine origin and eventually realise that we are divine beings temporarily clothed in human attire with the purpose of realising our soul`s position as the eternal servant in our loving relationship with the Divine.

Book excerpt: "Provocative in the way it explodes and expands the category of historical fiction." --Salt Lake Tribune In this beautifully written and powerful debut novel, Ella Joy Olsen traces the stories of five fascinating women who inhabit the same historic home over the course of a century—braided stories of love, heartbreak and courage connect the women, even across generations. Ivy Baygren has two great loves in her life: her husband, Adam, and the bungalow they buy together in one of the oldest neighborhoods in Salt Lake City, Utah. From the moment she and Adam lay eyes on the home, Ivy is captivated by its quaint details—the old porch swing, ornate tiles, and especially an heirloom rose bush bursting with snowy white blossoms. Called the Emmeline Rose for the home’s original owner, it seems yet another sign that this place will be Ivy’s happily-ever-after...Until her dreams are shattered by Adam’s unexpected death. Striving to be strong for her two children, Ivy decides to tackle the home-improvement projects she and Adam once planned. Day by day, as she attempts to rebuild her house and her resolve, she uncovers clues about previous inhabitants, from a half-embroidered sampler to buried wine bottles. And as Ivy learns about the women who came before her—the young Mormon torn between her heart and anti-polygamist beliefs, the Greek immigrant during World War II, a troubled single mother in the 1960s—she begins to uncover the lessons of her own journey. For every story has its sadness, but there is also the possibility of blooming again, even stronger and more resilient than before...

Download or read book Know Your Beholder written by Adam Rapp and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2015-03-03 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a Pulitzer Prize finalist comes a hilarious and heartbreaking novel about a musician climbing back from rock bottom. As winter deepens in snowbound Pollard, Illinois, thirty-something Francis Falbo is holed up in his attic apartment, recovering from a series of traumas: his mother's death, his beloved wife's desertion, and his once-ascendant rock band's irreconcilable break-up. Francis hasn't shaved in months, hasn't so much as changed out of his bathrobe-"the uniform of a Life in Default"-for nine days. Other than the agoraphobia that continues to hold him hostage, all he has left is his childhood home, whose remaining rooms he rents to a cast of eccentric tenants, including a pair of former circus performers whose daughter has gone missing. The tight-knit community has already survived a blizzard, but there is more danger in store for the citizens of Pollard before summer arrives. Francis is himself caught up in these troubles as he becomes increasingly entangled in the affairs of others, with results that are by turns disastrous, hysterical, and ultimately healing. Fusing consummate wit with the seriousness attending an adulthood gone awry, Rapp has written an uproarious and affecting novel about what we do and where we go when our lives have crumbled around us. Sharp-edged but tenderhearted, Know Your Beholder introduces us to one of the most lovably flawed characters in recent fiction, a man at last able to collect the jagged pieces of his dreams and begin anew, in both life and love. Seldom have our foibles and our efforts to persevere in spite of them been laid bare with such heart and hope.

So within this adventure, they move from war to love, aspects of religion, and the discovery of lifes meaning. All of which are viewed by the wise man, who meditates daily, and the poet, who translates his surroundings into powerful verses.
