Bertelsen has been teaching philosophy and meditation since the early 1970s; in 1989, he met the Tibetan lama Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche, who authorized Jes Bertelsen to teach Dzogchen, and to do so using his own judgment as to the most appropriate way to assimilate these teachings into Western culture. Bertelsen's teachings are based on an experiential investigation of the nature of consciousness, using comparative analysis of Eastern and Western spiritual teachings and consciousness practices on a foundation of modern psychological, philosophical, and scientific approaches.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;i&gt;Essence of Mind&lt;/i&gt; outlines the author's experience and approach to Dzogchen, the natural primordial state of human consciousness that is timeless, pure, and untouched by suffering. The book is divided into three parts. The first part describes different methods for pointing out the essence of consciousness and the techniques related to them. The second part seeks to outline the key principles of a training system suited to Western students that can lead to realization. The final section outlines the significance of continuous exercises, and describes the way spiritual practice slowly permeates daily life, dreams, sleep, and eventually death. Through the mind-training process, the practitioner approaches an almost ecstatic state of completion, a luminous, blissful wakefulness in which the consciousness is also fully relaxed, not clinging to bliss or desiring ecstasy, but transparent and open.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Bertelsen emphasizes that while more advanced forms of spiritual training can only take place in a face-to-face, deeply engaged mutual process between teacher and student, books are useful as sources of inspiration, in particular to help review one's insights and refresh one's practice.&lt;i&gt; Essence of Mind &lt;/i&gt;systematizes the experiences that occur along the spiritual path and helps students to refine, correct, and clarify their efforts; it is the author's hope that many students in the West will be able to benefit from his comparative approach to Dzogchen.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br clear=&quot;all&quot;&gt;</description>

Tucker&amp;mdash;then a successful advertising executive&amp;mdash;and a group of fellow travelers found themselves surrounded by a pride of angry lions. There was no way out, night had fallen, and the battery in their only flashlight was beginning to flicker. Miraculously, a local medicine woman, with two youngsters in tow, passed, trancelike and fearless, through the lions and escorted them all to safety. &lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt; For Tucker, that life-threatening experience became a life-changing one. She abandoned her career, left Europe, and returned to Timbavati to track down the medicine woman who had saved her: Maria Khosa. Upon seeing Tucker again, Khosa only smiled and said, &amp;ldquo;What took you so long?&amp;rdquo; She had been expecting her, and there was so much to do. Under Khosa&amp;rsquo;s shamanic tutelage, Tucker learned of her sacred destiny: to be the &amp;ldquo;keeper of the white lions,&amp;rdquo; believed to be angelic beings sent to Earth to save humanity at a time of crisis. Khosa also prophesized that the queen of the white lions&amp;mdash;the embodiment of the mother of Ra, the sun god&amp;mdash;would soon be born, on a day and in a place considered holy by Westerners.&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt; On December 25, 2000, in the little South Africa town of Bethlehem, a snowy white lion cub, Marah, was born. From the moment of her first meeting with Marah, Tucker&amp;rsquo;s story immediately takes off into battle, as she dedicates her every waking moment to prying Marah and her siblings from the grips of the trophy-hunting industry. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt; Compellingly written in the intimate style of a journal, Tucker describes with unflinching honesty her fears, doubts, hopes, and dreams, all the while unfolding for us an unforgettable tale of adventure, romance, spirituality, and most of all, justice.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br clear=&quot;all&quot;&gt;</description>

Is the Shroud of Turin really the burial cloth of Jesus, produced by a miraculous burst of radiant energy at the moment of Resurrection? What happens at faith-healing services to provide apparently miraculous cures? Steering between the twin pillars of belief and disbelief, experienced paranormal investigator Joe Nickell examines these claims and more. Relying on his forty-plus years of experience in tracking down the solutions to mysteries, Nickell uses on-site examinations, lab experiments, and other detective methods to uncover the facts behind the most incredible claims. He evaluates the evidence in six major categories of miracle claims: miraculous images (such as &quot;weeping&quot; icons); magical relics (like the Shroud of Turin and the Holy Grail); miracle healings (at Lourdes or at the hands of healers like Benny Hinn); visionary experiences (including near-death experiences); saintly powers (such as stigmata); and &quot;the devil's work&quot; (such as demonic possession).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br clear=&quot;all&quot;&gt;</description>

Is the Shroud of Turin really the burial cloth of Jesus, produced by a miraculous burst of radiant energy at the moment of Resurrection?

She pays tribute to the extraordinary personal mentors who helped light her way: Martin Luther King, Jr., Robert F. Kennedy, Fannie Lou Hamer, William Sloane Coffin, Ella Baker, Mae Bertha Carter, and many others.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;She celebrates the lives of the great Black women of Bennettsville, South Carolina-Miz Tee, Miz Lucy, Miz Kate-who along with her parents formed a formidable and loving network of community support for the young Marian Wright as a Black girl growing up in the segregated South. We follow the author to Spelman College in the late 1950s, when the school was a hotbed of civil rights activism, and where, through excerpts from her honest and passionate college journal, we witness a national leader in the making and meet the people who inspired and empowered her, including Dr. Benjamin E. Mays, Howard Zinn, and Charles E. Merrill, Jr.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;i&gt;Lanterns&lt;/i&gt; takes us to Mississippi in the 1960s, where Edelman was the first and only Black woman lawyer. Her account of those years is a riveting first-hand addition to the literature of civil rights: &quot;The only person I recognized in the menacing crowd as I walked towards the front courthouse steps was [a] veteran &lt;i&gt;New York Times reporter.&lt;/i&gt; He neither acknowledged me nor met my eyes. I knew then what it was like to be a poor Black person in Mississippi: alone.&quot; And we follow Edelman as she leads Bobby Kennedy on his fateful trip to see Mississippi poverty and hunger for himself, a powerful personal experience for the young RFK that helped awaken a nation's conscience to child hunger and poverty. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;i&gt;Lanterns&lt;/i&gt; is illustrated with thirty of the author's personal photographs and includes &quot;A Parent's Pledge&quot; and &quot;Twenty-five More Lessons for Life,&quot; an inspiration to all of us-parents, grandparents, teachers, religious and civic leaders-to guide, protect, and love our children every day so that they will become, in Marian Wright Edelman's moving vision, the healing agents for national transformation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br clear=&quot;all&quot;&gt;</description>

Can heredity alone account for the complex differences in people's temperaments and styles? The Michael teachings, an extraordinary body of channeled work, propose that we are each unique souls who deliberately take on a specific combination of traits to give us the experiences we seek. In this fascinating book, Shepherd Hoodwin expertly discusses these teachings from his vantage point as a Michael channel.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&quot;Michael&quot; is a group of souls who teach that we are eternal beings journeying from the Tao and back again in an adventure of exploration and creativity. Each step along the way, we make choices that shape our experience. For example, after committing to a series of lifetimes, we choose one of seven roles, or soul types: &lt;i&gt;server, priest, artisan, sage, warrior, king,&lt;/i&gt; or &lt;i&gt;scholar.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;These teachings address many age-old questions, such as &quot;How did we become who we are?&quot; &quot;Why are we here?&quot; &quot;Where are we going?&quot; and &quot;How does the universe work?&quot; In addition,&lt;i&gt; Journey of Your Soul &lt;/i&gt;sheds light on the channeling process itself, answering questions such as &quot;How does channeling work?&quot; &quot;Why do different channels receive conflicting information?&quot; and &quot;What does it take to become a channel?&quot; Hoodwin shows us that it is possible, and indeed beneficial, to engage all parts of the human consciousness. His unique analytical approach to channeling will help readers gain a firm intellectual understanding of what is involved.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In his foreword, Jon Klimo, PhD, author of &lt;i&gt;Channeling: Investigations on Receiving Information from Paranormal Sources&lt;/i&gt;, says, &quot;Shepherd Hoodwin has given us one of the best books to date about the phenomenon of channeling.&lt;i&gt; Journey of Your Soul &lt;/i&gt;may well also be the best of the Michael books due to its clarity, thoroughness, and detail, and thanks to the fact that the author, an exceptionally clearheaded Michael channel himself, brings real integrity and authenticity to our understanding of Michael in particular and to the channeling process in general.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br clear=&quot;all&quot;&gt;</description>

If your soul is immortal, did it have a &quot;life&quot; prior to birth? Did you choose your life and parents? Is reincarnation real? Elizabeth and Neil Carman, the authors of &lt;i&gt;Cosmic Cradle, &lt;/i&gt;address these questions through interviews with adults and children who report pre-birth experiences (PBEs) &lt;i&gt;not&lt;/i&gt; based on regression, hypnosis, or drugs. Instead, interviewees recall their pre-birth existence completely sober and awake.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In contrast to near-death experiences (NDEs), which have been well documented to show us what the soul experiences after death, PBEs throw light upon our lives before birth. People with NDEs sense that they &quot;return home&quot; when their spirits cross to the other side. What is the nature of this place we &quot;return&quot; to? PBEs suggest that we come from the same place we return to: we come from the Light and return to the Light. The same eternal &quot;you&quot; progresses through life before life, human life, and life after death. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;This new edition of &lt;i&gt;Cosmic Cradle &lt;/i&gt;explores your soul's journey into your mother's womb--where your soul comes from, the origin and purpose of your life, and the process by which you entered an earthly body. In pre-birth communications, parents meet a soul seeking to cross over from the heavenly realm to human birth. Persons with pre-birth memories recall existence in a luminous world before birth, in which they preview the upcoming life with a Divine Planner, and recall how they journeyed to their mothers' wombs.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Contents&lt;br&gt; Foreword by Bernie Siegel, MD&lt;br&gt; Introduction: Amnesia of Our Spiritual Origins&lt;br&gt; Part One: Pre-Birth Memory&lt;br&gt; 1.

Far more than a book about baseball, it is a deeply felt story of triumph and failure, dreams and disappointments. Jim Abbott has hurled another gem.&amp;rdquo;&amp;mdash;Jonathan Eig, &lt;i&gt;New York Times&lt;/i&gt; bestselling author of &lt;i&gt;Luckiest Man&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt; &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;NEW YORK TIMES &lt;/i&gt;BESTSELLER&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt; Born without a right hand, Jim Abbott dreamed of someday being a great athlete. Raised in Flint, Michigan, by parents who encouraged him to compete, Jim would become an ace pitcher for the University of Michigan. But his journey was only beginning: By twenty-one, he&amp;rsquo;d won the gold medal game at the 1988 Olympics and&amp;mdash;without spending a day in the minor leagues&amp;mdash;cracked the starting rotation of the California Angels. In 1991, he would finish third in the voting for the Cy Young Award. Two years later, he would don Yankee pinstripes and pitch one of the most dramatic no-hitters in major-league history.&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt; In this honest and insightful book, Jim Abbott reveals the challenges he faced in becoming an elite pitcher, the insecurities he dealt with in a life spent as the different one, and the intense emotion generated by his encounters with disabled children from around the country. With a riveting pitch-by-pitch account of his no-hitter providing the ideal frame for his story, this unique athlete offers readers an extraordinary and unforgettable memoir.&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt; &lt;b&gt;&amp;ldquo;Compelling . . . [a] big-hearted memoir.&amp;rdquo;&amp;mdash;&lt;i&gt;Los Angeles Times&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;b&gt;&amp;ldquo;Inspirational.&amp;rdquo;&amp;mdash;&lt;i&gt;The Philadelphia Inquirer&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt; Includes an exclusive conversation between Jim Abbott and Tim Brown in the back of the book.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br clear=&quot;all&quot;&gt;</description>
