Rose of the World will install a genuine golden age in our world and abolish poverty, tyranny, war, and violence. Daniel Andreev at the same time had visions of other worlds, both subterranean and celestial, and recorded them, with the struggle between good and evil, and the progress of humans for the goal of moral perfection.

Download or read book The Way of the Rose written by Clark Strand and published by Random House. This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What happens when a former Zen Buddhist monk and his feminist wife experience an apparition of the Virgin Mary? “This book could not have come at a more auspicious time, and the message is mystical perfection, not to mention a courageous one. I adore this book.”—Caroline Myss, author of Anatomy of the Spirit Before a vision of a mysterious “Lady” invited Clark Strand and Perdita Finn to pray the rosary, they were not only uninterested in becoming Catholic but finished with institutional religion altogether. Their main spiritual concerns were the fate of the planet and the future of their children and grandchildren in an age of ecological collapse. But this Lady barely even referred to the Church and its proscriptions. Instead, she spoke of the miraculous power of the rosary to transform lives and heal the planet, and revealed the secrets she had hidden within the rosary’s prayers and mysteries—secrets of a past age when forests were the only cathedrals and people wove rose garlands for a Mother whose loving presence was as close as the ground beneath their feet. She told Strand and Finn: The rosary is My body, and My body is the body of the world. Your body is one with that body. What cause could there be for fear? Weaving together their own remarkable story of how they came to the rosary, their discoveries about the eco-feminist wisdom at the heart of this ancient devotion, and the life-changing revelations of the Lady herself, the authors reveal an ancestral path—available to everyone, religious or not—that returns us to the powerful healing rhythms of the natural world.
Download or read book A World Made for Money written by Bret Wallach and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2015-05-01 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A spirited and incisive survey of economic geography, A World Made for Money begins with the author stopped at a red light in Norman, Oklahoma. Observing the landscape of drugstores and banks, and for that matter the stoplight and roads themselves, Bret Wallach observes, “Everything I see has been built to make money” or, at the very least, to facilitate making money. This, he argues, is a global phenomenon that nonetheless has occurred only within the past hundred years or so. Although guidebooks and culture brokers often disparage these landscapes of commerce, Wallach—recipient of a MacArthur “genius grant”—argues that we would do well to pay them close attention. A World Made for Money provides a compelling, condensed tour of our world. From Silicon Valley to Sri Lanka, from post-Soviet Russia to post-apartheid South Africa, Wallach looks at how human beings are buying, manufacturing, working, growing and shipping food, and accessing the natural resources to fuel it all. These essential facets of daily life, propelled by the profit motive, represent a transnational force shaping our surroundings and environment in ways that may not always be beautiful (or even healthy) but that are fundamental to understanding how the world works in the twenty-first century. Wallach examines the relationship between acquisitiveness and landscape, reveals surprising contradictions and nuances, and provides fresh perspective on politically charged topics such as sprawl, deindustrialization, and agribusiness.

Download or read book The World s Fairest Rose written by Hans Christian Andersen and published by Lindhardt og Ringhof. This book was released on 2020-06-29 with total page 5 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There was once a queen who possessed a magnificent garden, filled with many varied flowers. One day, she fell ill and her doctors had little hope of a recovery. Only one of them said that a cure existed: the loveliest rose in the world. If it was found and brought to the queen, she would be saved. But where was the loveliest rose? And what was she called? No one knew, but they went looking. Hans Christian Andersen (1805-1875) was a Danish author, poet and artist. Celebrated for children’s literature, his most cherished fairy tales include "The Emperor's New Clothes", "The Little Mermaid", "The Nightingale", "The Steadfast Tin Soldier", "The Snow Queen", "The Ugly Duckling" and "The Little Match Girl". His books have been translated into every living language, and today there is no child or adult that has not met Andersen's whimsical characters. His fairy tales have been adapted to stage and screen countless times, most notably by Disney with the animated films "The Little Mermaid" in 1989 and "Frozen", which is loosely based on "The Snow Queen", in 2013. Thanks to Andersen's contribution to children's literature, his birth date, April 2, is celebrated as International Children's Book Day.

Download or read book Rose coloured world written by Julie Chan and published by Kin Ki Julie Chan. This book was released on 2020-06-09 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of a kind - Your Rose: Feel these words, your rose is flourishing in an ever-changing spiral. Spiral means no "before" and "after". It's the deepening of the links between many lifetimes that can be felt all at once. I think we don't have to see "career” as a single "profession”. Who I truly want to be is “myself”. This “me” has unlimited paths to go on, where everything that I do can be done in a unique way that hasn't been done like this before. Everything on this planet cannot really be “compared”. There are only personal preferences from individuals, not comparisons across everything against some sort of “standards”. Whatever we do, there is the element of “me” inside it, and this is the point where “I” and “this thing that I'm doing” meet. No one can be this “I” apart from myself, hence this thing that you do is unique, as unique as everyone on this planet. Since it cannot be “compared”, it's pointless to compete. There is no rules/standards saying that this “thing” can only be done “this way”, or it won't be counted as “this thing”. They are saying that it doesn't count, simply because it has only been done this way all the time and therefore it continues will be? There isn't a “group” or a “category” that can define me. I'm not these identities, I'm “me” myself, I do not come here to perform a specific identity, a character, a function of some system “bigger” than me, and I don't come here just to speak certain words in order to just “survive”. I let everything flow through “me”. Then, who am “I”? CAN'T BE DEFINED. “I” am ever-changing, changing every minute and every second, “I” don't know who “I” am going to become, because at each moment there are many paths in front of me for me to choose, and each choice that I've chosen will then show many more new paths for me to choose. I feel what I'm passionate about at this moment. Then I will go and have that experience, instead of identifying what “sort of person” “I” really am. The things that “I” am passionate about at this moment could be the complete opposite in the next moment. And it is totally “acceptable”. It is definitely “real”. It doesn't mean that the first thing that I was passionate about is “not good”, or the second thing is “better”, it is simply that the second thing is what I want to experience at this moment, and I know that there soon will be a third one, another form of energies that I wish to experience. The trap in our mind makes us want to “control” things, it makes us think that a certain experience could bring us to a point where we can say “I'm done”. In fact, there is no “getting done”, it is an ever-expanding journey unfolding one moment after another. There is no “good” experience or “bad” experience. All of them are beautiful.
Download or read book The Sustainable Rose Garden written by Pat Shanley and published by Casemate / Newbury. This book was released on 2011-01-08 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A fascinating and informative book for anyone who loves roses but wants to avoid spraying them with toxic chemicals” (The American Gardener). A winner of the World Federation of Roses Literary Award, this work brings together experts from around the world to inform gardeners about developments in the new, irresistible—yet long overdue—trend toward creating environmentally friendly and enduring rose gardens, with “sustainability” as the key. The queen of flowers, the rose—by presidential declaration, America’s National Floral Emblem—was initially left behind as “green consciousness” and the concept of sustainability took hold among the gardening public. But the rose is now making up for lost time. From the workshops of breeders—both in the United States. and abroad—a new generation of disease-resistant and low-maintenance rose varieties has emerged in the last decade to fill popular demand. In this book, you will learn how to make your own sustainable rose garden. With thirty-eight lavishly illustrated articles and descriptions of the best new—as well as old—rose varieties designed for the sustainable rose garden, this is a must-have book for today’s new generation of avid but environmentally conscious gardeners. “Finally, we have a book that addresses the notion of growing roses in an environmentally friendly manner . . . Nothing about sustainable rose culture has been presented as well as it has been in this book.” —Pacific Horticulture Society
