Pebbles Unseen is a collection of poems that depicts the poet's inner self. Pebbles unseen are smoothened by adversities and denials, love and hope sharpen them. They are the hidden treasures of the poet's heart, finding expressions out of the abundance of her heart. They are the experiences that shaped her inner being, gathered by the waves of life as she cried with every little girl who had tear drops in her eyes, observed herself in the mirror, rejoiced with every new friendship, blossomed by the touch of love, tended her little ones and inspired her students to pursue their dreams.Pebbles unseen are the expressions of a scientist-poet, her intense feelings and responses to happenings within and around her. The poet submits the collection of her pebbles at the feet of her late mother, as it reflects the colours of her friendship, spirituality, motherhood and professional journey. Let these pebbles shine forth and create ripples in the hearts of readers as words give her the power to fathom the depths of her inner soul.

"Gracefully written and moving ... Things Seen and Unseen starts with Nora Gallagher entering the labyrinth of her life ... and ultimately it leads to the center of her being."--The Boston Globe It started with an occasional Sunday, a "tourist's" visit to a local church. Eventually Nora Gallagher entered into a yearlong journey to discover her faith and a relationship with God, using the Christian calendar as her compass. Whether writing about her brother's battle against cancer, talking to homeless men about the World Series, or questioning the afterlife ("One world at a time"), Gallagher draws us into a world of journeys and mysteries, yet grounded in a gritty reality. She braids together the symbols of the Christian calendar, the events of a year in one church, and her own spiritual journey, each strand combed out with harrowing intimacy. Thought provoking and profoundly perceptive, Things Seen and Unseen is a remarkable demonstration that "the road to the sacred is paved with the ordinary." "Like Kathleen Norris in Amazing Grace, Gallagher is renewing the language of ultimate concerns."--San Francisco Chronicle "The deep serenity that suffuses Gallagher's work, the lyrical cadences in which she writes, do not blunt the sharp edges of what she discovered in her quest for meaning."--Los Angeles Times

In Hidden Wisdom, Professor Anderson introduces the activity of self-transformation or self-cultivation through meditative reflections on so-called nonsense poetry and myth. Central to his thesis is the claim that, “without a willing change in attitude from fear to radical trust, and from reactive bewilderment to active attention no person can leave anxious worry behind and ‘cross over’ to tranquility.” In the spirit of Don Quixote, Anderson contends, “that the road is better than the inn if for no other reason than that the sublime always looks ridiculous in the world of small talk and domestic ease. And yet it is precisely on the ground of the commonplace that every ideal must pitch and strike its tent or fail to own a habitation and a name.”

A book outlining various issues faced by Muslims with regards to imitating the disbelievers. This book takes you on a journey explaining their history and Islamic ruling concerning every matter. Imitation of the Kuffaar means imitating their clothing and appearance, and the customs that are unique to them. It does not mean that we should not ride what they ride or wear what they wear. But if they ride in a specific way that is unique to them, then we should not ride in that way. If they tailor their clothes in a certain fashion that is unique to them, we should not do likewise. But if we have cars that are similar to theirs and fabric that is similar to theirs, there is nothing wrong with that. As for customs, the basic principle is that they are permissible, unless there is evidence to prove that they are not allowed. Based on that, if the people are accustomed to something and anyone tells them that it is Haraam, then he is required to produce evidence; it should be said to him: Where is the evidence that it is Haraam? But in the case of acts of worship, if someone tells a person that a particular act of worship is an innovation, and he says that it is not an innovation, we say to him: Where is the evidence that is it is not an innovation? Because the basic principle with regard to acts of worship is that they are not allowed unless there is evidence to prove that they are Islamically prescribed. Topics covered are: Amulets & Talismans Beard & Mustache Celebrations, Events & Festivals - April Fool’s Day - Baby Shower - Birthday - Carnivals - Christmas - Father’s Day - Fiesta De San Fermín - Halloween - Holi - International Women’s Day - International Yoga Day - La Tomatina - Mardi Gras - Mother’s Day - National Day - New Year - Nowruz - SF Pride - Thanksgiving - Valentine’s Day Clapping Clothing & Accessories - Cross-Dressing - Graduation Gown & Cap - Specific Colors - Specific Styles - Wearing High Heels - Women Wearing Trousers Cohabitation Discrimination In Punishment Eating & Drinking With Your Left Hand Eyebrow Shaping & Plucking Excessive Love For Dogs Extreme Decoration Of Mosques Female Infanticide Feminism Greetings - Bowing - Curtsy - Namaste or Namaskar - Sembah - Touching Feet (Charan Sparsh) Growing & Keeping Long Nails Hair Styles Love Bite Meditation Men Wearing Bracelets Men Wearing Chains & Necklaces Moment Of Silence Nationalism Palmistry Piercings Proposing A Toast Proposing On One Knee Rallies & Protests Selfie Culture Shrines Sports Fanaticism Standing Ovation Standing Up For National Anthem Superstition Tattooing Weddings - Bachelor Party - Bridal Shower - Honeymoon Whistling Wife Taking The Husband’s Surname Wigs & Extensions Zodiac Signs

'Shades of Resilience' is a collection of 26 poems penned by Prof. (Dr.) Kum Kum Ray on the theme of endurance and fortitude. Her Poems are an expression of heart felt emotions, written in a language that resonates diverse human experiences. The unprecedented loss and sorrow that mankind underwent in recent times has been revelatory. It exposed us to the common language of human emotion which is not limited by geography and varied climes. As humanity we buffeted the fury of the Pandemic and emerged more resilient with hearts full of gratitude and benignity. The poems in this collection are dedicated to the spirit that keeps the human race together, in its onward journey towards fellow feelings, coexistence and camaraderie. The language of the poems by Dr. Ray in her own words is: The language of the clouds, in conflict with each other and their language of peace: The signs and the symbols that the sun throws around on herbs, shrubs, bushes, and trees: How it whispers sweet nothings to the moon, coy and shy, Evoking a response of love soaked in his eyes: playing like lovers hide and seek longing to end in each other’s arms: So much in love, Everyday a Valentine...... That would be the language of my poems.... Rushing from my “nib”

A new version of the complete spiritual discourses of the Sufi Master, Jalal al-Din Rumi, a great spiritual teacher to be sure, a great poet certainly, a guide to all on the spiritual path and a friend to those unsure of the way. Jalal al-Din Rumi followed the path of Islamic mysticism, a great spiritual teacher to be sure, a great poet certainly, a guide to all on the spiritual path and a friend to those unsure of the way. To those who are sure of the path Rumi says with complete confidence, 'You should realize therefore that whoever has committed himself wholly to God will be safe from all harm, and will remain safe. In His presence, no petition of any man is ever in vain.' And then he adds, 'His bounty and mercy are infinite. Whoever relies on Him will never go astray, his trust will not be in vain.' To those unsure of the path Rumi encourages, 'since God's generosity is so well known, and all the world is aware of His grace and kindness, why do you not ask and hope to receive from Him a robe of honor and a rich gift? Instead, you sit in despair and say, 'If He wills, He will give something to me.' And so you pray to Him not at all.'
