DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn the tradition of the Alchemist and Jonathon Livingston Seagull, Paulo and the Magician comes to us as an enchanting fable, though it hardly stops there. Ambitious and provocative, the story takes the reader through the meta-physical hoops of A Course In Miracles, weaving in the principles of its complicated psychology, leaving the reader with a full appreciation of this difficult revelatory text – all seen through the eyes of a frustrated young wood seller stuck in his medieval market place! Paulo's life abounds with the type of people who challenge us every day – an unscrupulous Mayor, a violent Blacksmith, thoroughly annoying clients – and it seems that things will never get better. But he alone knows that the fortress wall is not the end of the Domain, and one day he escapes into the mysterious land beyond. There he meets Zepharo, the magician, whose discussions drive Paulo quite crazy, but which lead the boy resolutely back along the path toward the Golden City, his true Home.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book explores the psychological nature of forgiveness for both the subjective ego and what Jung called the objective psyche, or soul. Utilizing analytical, archetypal, and dialectical psychological approaches, the notion of forgiveness is traced from its archetypal and philosophical origins in Greek and Roman mythology through its birth and development in Judaic and Christian theology, to its modern functional character as self-help commodity, relationship remedy, and global necessity. Offering a deeper understanding of the concept of "true" forgiveness as a soul event, Sandoval reveals the transformative nature of forgiveness and the implications this notion has on the self and analytical psychology.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFor every human on earth, the clock is ticking towards their inevitable death. Whether one lives to the oldest of ages (expiring quietly) or death comes suddenly with a slip on the ice (or in any other of the myriad of ways people die), the end of biological life is the outcome for everyone. For the Christian, however, there is the expectation of continuation beyond this fleeting life on earth. Naturalists have no such optimism and can only hope that their time on earth is a pleasant one. Because Christians have a divine assurance, they want to share that hope with others. Still, theological questions remain: Can near-death experiences help lead those far from Christ to him? Can they be added to the repertoire of apologetic arguments for Christianity? This book examines the truth surrounding near-death experiences: how they have been seen in human culture, what the scientific community is learning about those who have near-death experiences, and how near-death experiences can be used (or not used) in your evangelistic encounters.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK'Becoming: An Introduction to Jung's Concept of Individuation' explores the ideas of Carl Gustav Jung. His idea of a process called individuation has sustained Deldon Anne McNeely's dedication to a lifelong work of psychoanalysis, which unfortunately has been dismissed by the current trends in psychology and psychiatry. Psychotherapists know the value of Jung's approach through clinical results, that is, watching people enlarge their consciousness and change their attitudes and behavior, transforming their suffering into psychological well-being. However, psychology's fascination with behavioral techniques, made necessary by financial concerns and promoted by insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies, has changed the nature of psychotherapy and has attempted to dismiss the wisdom of Jung and other pioneers of the territory of the unconscious mind. For a combination of unfortunate circumstances, many of the younger generation, including college and medical students, are deprived of fully understanding their own minds. Those with a scientific bent are sometimes turned away from self-reflection by the suggestion that unconscious processes are metaphysical mumbo-jumbo. Superficial assessments of Jung have led to the incorrect conclusion that one must be a spiritual seeker, or religious, in order to follow Jung's ideas about personality. 'Becoming' is an offering to correct these misperceptions. Many university professors are not allowed to teach Jungian psychology. Secular humanism and positivism have shaped the academic worldview; therefore, investigation into the unknown or unfamiliar dimensions of human experience is not valued. But this attitude contrasts with the positive reputation Jung enjoys among therapists, artists of all types, and philosophers. Those without resistance to the unconscious because of their creativity, open-mindedness, or personal disposition are more likely to receive Jung's explorations without prejudice or ideological resistance. There is a lively conversation going on about Jung's ideas in journals and conferences among diverse groups of thinkers which does not reach mainstream psychology. 'Becoming' is for those whose minds are receptive to the unknown, and to help some of us to think-more with respect than dread-of the possibility that we act unconsciously.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book is about a new philosophy that takes a specific focus on see the critical historical and everyday importance of the nature and role of fear in human existence. We seem to be at a time when fear has taken the lead and we are not yet able to understand it and manage it well enough. It is causing major problems from wars, to terrorism, to deterioration of our institutions which are operating in a culture of fear. Our health is deteriorating under the excess of fear in the world today. No other philosophy, not rationalism, existentialism or pragmatism etc., has given this focus to fear as does the philosophy of fearism. It is an original synthesis of an Eastern philosophy of fearism (developed by Desh Subba, from Nepal) and a Western philosophy of fearlessness (developmed by R. Michael Fisher). The book brings forth their unified vision of a Fearless Age that awaits humanity if we better learn how to manage fear and teach about it with a new lens. Subba calls this a fearist lens, and Fisher calls it a fearlessness lens. Together, working independently for the past 20 years, they each have recently met to collaborate on this global project and movement as "one philosophy of fearism." This is an essential text for leaders, students, parents, professionals and diverse people. Although it is not a self-help book, is goes deeper into helping our entire societies transform their relationship to fear and fearlessness. A must read for those who love philosophy and thinking critically about the 21st century.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKOne day, as you're traveling down your life's road, you'll encounter your Creator. Chances are, you have already encountered Him, possibly many times, but did not realize it. Or maybe you did realize it and chose to turn the other way. But this time, He will get your attention. You will "hear" Him calling you. You will feel the cry of your soul in response. And you will recognize the pull of God-consciousness on your self-consciousness. What do you do? Since everybody is different, your encounter with the Creator will be orchestrated especially for you. But at the same time, everybody's life experiences will follow the same model. Encounter proposes that how you interpret your experiences in life determines to a large degree whether or not you will see God's model of the perfected man in yourself. Once you meet Him, God is easy to fall in love with. The hard part is being "remade" in His likeness. Encounter describes this "make-over," this transformation process, so you will be able to follow it in your own life. The author suggests new ways of considering and understanding past and current events, and explains the forces at work and play within the human psyche. To help you through this trying and sometimes painful process, the Creator has given you a two-edged Sword of Forgiveness and Faith to release you from guilt and fear, Gloves of Compassion and Gratitude to resolve painful memories, and a Plow of Wisdom and Discernment to uproot misconceptions and allow the seed of truth to take hold in your heart and mind. Encounter describes the function of each in detail and provides easy-to-follow instructions for their use. The Creator is the guiding force behind the transformation process. He created Universal Law to guide you and Divine Love to empower you. Your part is to love Him with all your heart and walk in His way. This means gradually relinquishing your Free Will and surrendering to God's Will... not an easy task for the only creature on Earth with the power to say No to God! Indeed, free will is powerful, but, as argued in Encounter, free will is not free: we pay dearly for it. Encounter introduces man's Lower Self and Higher Self, describes the beauty of Universal Law, talk's about man's God qualities, his childlike nature, his innocence, and his reason for being here. The book states that we can all have a one-on-one relationship with our Father God and reveals how you should react when you encounter your Creator. Expect some surprises along the way.
