What if a dandelion became a real lion? With enchanting, ethereal art, this wordless story shares a world where reality can be transfigured by imagination. In a meadow filled with dandelion buds just about to flower, one dandelion blooms into a real lion. Roots and leaves unfurl into four tiny paws and a long tail with a fluffy yellow tuft. What a great, wide world there is to explore when you have paws instead of roots: there are fast trains to ride, regal ships to sail, and cities with lights as bright as Dandelion’s field in full bloom. But will a real lion ever be content to go back to being a rooted dandelion? Yoko Tanaka’s exquisite illustrations take us on an adventure where even the smallest seeds contain cosmic dreams.
In this fascinating new collection, an all-star team of researchers explores lucid dreaming not only as consciousness during sleep but also as a powerful ability cultivated by artists, scientists, and shamans alike to achieve a variety of purposes and outcomes in the dream. The first set of its kind, Lucid Dreaming: New Perspectives on Consciousness in Sleep provides a comprehensive showcase of the theories, research, and direct experience that serve to illuminate how certain people can maintain conscious awareness while dreaming. The text is organized into two sections, covering science, psychology, and education; and religious traditions, creativity, and culture. Contributors to this two-volume work include top dream experts across the globe—scholars sharing knowledge gained from deep personal explorations and cutting-edge scientific investigations. Topics covered include the neuroscience of lucid dreaming, clinical uses of lucid dreaming in treating trauma, the secret history of lucid dreaming in English philosophy, and spiritual practices of lucid dreaming in Islam, Buddhism, and shamanic traditions. The work also addresses lucid dreaming in movies including The Matrix and literature such as the fiction of J.R.R. Tolkien and explains how modern video gaming enhances lucidity. This set serves as an ideal text and reference work for school libraries and academic courses in anthropology, psychology, religious studies, and cognitive science as well as for graduate-level study in holistic education—an increasingly popular specialization.
Expand beyond the perceived limitations of the human experience with guidance from The Council, a collective of ascended masters channeled by metaphysical teacher Sara Landon, in conversation with Mike Dooley. In this powerful narrative, Mike Dooley engages in conversation with Sara Landon as she channels The Council. He explores the staggering wisdom of The Council to understand the very reason for life as we know it (The Dream), how to wisely navigate everything we experience between life and death (The Journey), how all of this fits within the context of reality (Eternity), and our intimate relationship to the Source of our lives and all things (God). The Council answers complex, big-picture questions like "To what degree can we transcend life's illusions without destroying the fabric of our adventure?" and "Are there other planetary beings physically among us?" with astonishing clarity. In The Council's words: "A new path forward is emerging and expanded possibilities for humankind are becoming the new way of living, loving, leading, and thriving in your awakening world. It is time for the leaders and way-showers of this Great Awakening to fully step into their power and guide the way forward. We bring forth the wisdom to support you in living your highest potential during this spectacular time!"
Is God a God of love or a God of fear? I believe God is a God of love, so this book was written to clearly show that God is a God of love and that He does not teach through fear or use fear in any way. The ancient angry, jealous, and fearful God depicted in many writings does not reflect his true image. God is a God of peace. God is a God of harmony. God is a God of everlasting joy.
Macbeth for Murderers is a true story of how lives collide behind the walls of the Maximum Security Prison. The inmates include Rashid, a street-smart drug dealer; Jorge, a bitter man convicted of murder; Tommy, a modern-day Sundance Kid; William, rapist and murderer; and Jim, a murderer at nineteen. Fate, Shakespeare and two unlikely teachers, peel away their hard-core exteriors and reveal the men behind their violent crimes. Some will deserve a second chance, and some wont. Roberta Davidson, an English Professor from the Ivy League, and John Kerwin, a television producer turned teacher, mingle in the sub-culture of the incarcerated, and their experiences provide a unique and truthful view of modern-day prison life.
Native peoples of the Amazon view objects, especially human artifacts, as the first cosmic creations and the building blocks from which the natural world has been shaped. In these constructional cosmologies, spears became the stings of wasps, hammocks became spiderwebs, stools became the buttocks of human beings. A view so antithetical to Western thought offers a refreshing perspective on the place and role of objects in human social life—one that has remained under-studied in Amazonian anthropology. In this book, ten scholars re-introduce objects to contemporary studies of animism in order to explore how various peoples envision the lives of material objects: the occult, or extraordinary, lives of “things,” whose personas are normally not visible to lay people. Combining linguistic, ethnological, and historical perspectives, the contributors draw on a wealth of information gathered from ten Amerindian peoples belonging to seven different linguistic families to identify the basic tenets of what might be called a native Amazonian theory of materiality and personhood. They consider which objects have subjective dimensions and how they are manifested, focusing on three domains regarding Amazonian conceptions of things: the subjective life of objects, considering which things have a subjective dimension; the social life of things, seeing the diverse ways in which human beings and things relate as subjectivities; and the historical life of things, recognizing the fact that some things have value as ritual objects or heirlooms. These chapters demonstrate how native Amazonian peoples view animals, plants, and things as “subjectivities” possessing agency, intentionality, and consciousness, as well as a composite anatomy. They also show how materiality is intimately linked to notions of personhood, with artifacts classified as natural or divine creations and living beings viewed as cultural or constructed. The Occult Life of Things offers original insights into these elaborate native ontologies as it breaks new ground in Amazonian studies.

My book is about awakening and staying awake. It is about acceptance and being a real human being. Many people think awakening is understanding that the world is not real. Actually, real awakening is being able to stay in the world, to be a real human being even if you remember that the world is not real in your consciousness. A new world opens up the moment a person understands that the world does not have a meaning and your mission is to make it mean something. This book is very enlightening, strong, and awakening, and it’s written in a very revolutionary approach. People meditate, do yoga, and do lots of exercises to get in tune with themselves, and yet they are still stressed, ill, and in panic in their daily lives. My book is about staying awake in your daily life—every day, every moment, and every situation.
Women and the Word examines why, in today's secular society, so many of the finest British and American women novelists seem preoccupied with Biblical themes and stories. It offers informed and challenging analysis of individual novels and stories for the literary critic and student. By analysing those texts in the context of myth and religion, however, it also makes an important and ground-breaking contribution to a number of the inter-disciplinary debates taking place within women's studies.
