PARASURAM The Sixth Avatar of Vishnu A humble Brahmin boy transforms into a fierce warrior to protect the weak and punish the wicked—Parasuram’s life is the ultimate story of a revolutionary. The Warrior Sage chronicles the legendary journey of Parasuram through the various yugas. Believed to be an immortal and one of the greatest warriors in the Hindu mythology, Parasuram is present in both the Ramayana and the Mahabharata, thus marking his presence in the Treta as well as in the Dwapara Yuga. Parasuram is the embodiment of duty and justice. His actions—going on a kshatriya killing spree to avenge his father’s death; punishing the sea god Varuna for encroaching on the holy land Gokarna; challenging Lord Ram to a duel for breaking Lord Shiva’s bow; waging a war with Bhishma for the injustice done to Amba …—all point to his firm belief in truth and righteousness. Parasuram’s story shows you that you don’t have to be stuck in a mould others expect you to be in; you are free to choose your path, your truth. Read on to discover the many heroic feats of Parasuram and be inspired to take charge of your life. V. S. Rao is a celebrated Telugu author, playwright, translator and scriptwriter. He has 90 titles to his credit, including short stories, novels, children’s books and plays. His writing spans a variety of genres, from thrillers, drama, mythology, philosophy to lyrics for devotional albums. He is the recipient of numerous literary honors and awards.

The makeup of every man is based on the fundamental design of the Creator. Using Himself as the Pattern, God the Father has designed man with certain universal attributes. Not every man is the same, but neither is he so unique as to have nothing in common with his brothers.Much of our study in times gone by has been geared toward understanding and appreciating the differences that exist between men. However it is time that men understand some of the things that make them uniquely "men". First and foremost, men must be an expression of their Creator or they will never truly know the meaning of being fulfilled.Jesus is the first born among many brethren. Of this the scripture leaves no doubt. He was not only the first, but He was also the full representation of the essence of God the Father here on earth. As such, we have in Jesus the fullness of God to see in fleshly form.The purpose of this book is to take the four major presentations of Jesus, which are also the four major presentations of a man who is reaching his potential, and make them understandable, reachable, and emulatable.This book is designed to be used in conjunction with the "King, Warrior, Sage, Lover" seminars conducted by Lifeflow. However, it still has value even for those who have not been through that seminar and who do not yet understand the makeup of their own manhood.Whether you know who you are as a king, a warrior, a sage, and a lover is not important if your desire is to grow in each. The key to growth in this as in all Christian endeavors is to emulate Jesus in one's daily life. It is this clear picture of Jesus held firmly in our heart and mind, and to which we compare ourselves daily, that provides a target or goal for which we aim. This picture of Jesus, this clear vision of Him as the one we want to be like, is our hope for the future. We may not be there yet, but if we persist, we will. That picture of Jesus, the man we want to become, is our "hope".That striving daily to act differently, to bring ourselves into accordance with that picture in our heart and mind, that intention and action to live our life differently, that is our "Faith". Faith literally means to live or conduct your life in accordance with something. So as we seek to act like Jesus as opposed to our own way, that is our faith in action.

If you are a long-time martial artist, you have likely been either the recipient, the victim - or both - of the "wise old master" phenomenon, whereby budo students reverentially enfold their teachers as martial, moral and mystical juggernauts sans reproach, in which case, this book will make you clench your fists and laugh out loud, often while reading the same sentence. Iconoclastic, rebellious, yet fiercely holding to some of the most traditional values of Japanese martial culture, Amdur brought something new to martial arts writing - a startling honesty about the flaws, not only within martial arts culture, but also within its practitioners, often using himself as an exemplar of the latter. Originally published in 2000, and now fully revised, with eight new chapters, new artwork and photography, Dueling with O Sensei, Revised and Expanded Edition will be an invaluable addition to the library of old readers and new alike.

Explains the science behind the practice of nei kung, the elemental nature of yin and yang energy--the two components of ch'i, and how learning to control the yang energy in our ch'i can result in the release of dynamic energy. • Establishes the existence and understanding of nei kung in the practices of many of the world's ancient cultures. • Includes a step-by-step guide to the meditation that forms the basis of the practice of nei kung. • By Kosta Danaos, author of The Magus of Java and apprentice to an immortal of the Mo-Pai tradition. In 1994 Kosta Danaos was accepted as a student by John Chang, a Chinese-Javanese Taoist in the Mo-Pai tradition and a master of nei kung, the practice of harnessing and controlling our body's bioenergy, or ch'i. Nei Kung: The Secret Teachings of the Warrior Sages describes the practice of nei kung and how learning to control our ch'i can result in the release of dynamic energy that can be used for healing, pyrogenesis, telekinesis, levitation, telepathy, and more. Danaos suggests that both components of ch'i--yin and yang energy--are fundamental to the earth and to life and were recognized and used in many of the world's ancient cultures. Though we have forgotten how to access them, these components are in fact elemental parts of us. The author explains that we first must open our minds to the fact that the power of ch'i is real. Next, in learning to control our ch'i as a whole, we must learn to channel our yang energy in productive ways--a potential we all possess. To help readers understand their capacity to connect with this inner elemental power, the author offers a fascinating blend of teachings that include sound scientific theories explaining much of the "magic" of nei kung. He also offers historical, linguistic, artistic, and literary proof of the presence and understanding of nei kung throughout the ages and a step-by-step introduction to several types of simple meditation--fundamental to directing one's ch'i. With his engaging storytelling and disarming humor, his physics-based explanations for seemingly mystical phenomena, and his reassurances that he's really no different from the rest of us, Kosta Danaos shows us that once we remember our capacity to harness our yang energy, we can change ourselves and our world.

In a time when sorcery and black magic ruled the will of man, a flame within a long forgotten people was once again ignited. It is evident from his growing desire to wield a sword that Chael’s life as a farmer’s son will never be enough. With his sister Taelarae, he makes the long journey to Darvenlure. That is where they meet Iniquitous, a charming sorcerer with the power of black magic and the disposition of pure evil. When Taelarae goes missing, Chael soon realizes that it is the work of this malevolent sorcerer. Frantically he begins his long quest for the one person he vowed to his father he would keep safe. Along the way, he comes to realize that he is indeed more than just a farmer’s son. With battles fought against one adversary more powerful than the last while wielding one of the finest swords ever forged, he rouses within many desolate Sages a desire to survive left dormant for many centuries. With the help of Kaelon, Telaena, Shan Taen and Gheldorh, his newly made friends on the journey to save his sister, Chael begins to unlock the secret behind the true meaning of the Warrior Sage that will bring about a realization that they are not only friends but share an age old bond of blood. And with this new found awareness they ride to Nay lore, the forbidden home of Iniquitous, to battle for the safe return of Taelarae and discover that she holds the key to their very existence.
