Ojo De Dios gives clear and simple directions for turning sticks and yarn into an Eye of God-- an authentic, ancient, Indian "prayer for the protection and benevolence of God.

Handicrafters, interested in producing one-of-a-kind talismans for home use or gift-giving, can quickly and easily alter patterns, shapes and sizes to enhance any color scheme and fit any available space, large or small. Included for the less adventurous craftsman, are precise, step-by-step directions for weaving 19 lovely charms, to protect as well as decorate the home. Ojo-crafting offers excellent opportunity for creative expression, skill and personal satisfaction and an inexpensive alternative to the usual store-bought, mass-produced prints of the masters, commercial plaques and pop posters. Easily mastered by young and old alike, the Ojo de Dios is truly a craft for all times and all ages." --Amazon.com.

Greek vases and Peruvian bottles, Chinese bronzes and African masks, Tel Brak idols and Egyptian tomb paintings—artifacts ancient and modern reveal man's universal fascination with the eye and his awe before its mysterious powers. In this wide-ranging and richly illustrated essay Albert M. Potts considers the special properties the human mind has ascribed to the eye over the millenia and seeks out its peculiar significance as symbol. Amulets against the Evil Eye persist today in nearly every part of the world. Almost as pervasive is the conception of the Good Eye, itself used as a protective amulet. The Eye of Horus, for example, was one of the holiest symbols of the ancient Egyptian religion, and its descendants can still be found in the Mediterranean basin. Using artifacts and texts, the folklore of our own times, and aspects of the unconscious revealed by Jungian psychology, Potts reveals the diverse forms and meanings of this powerful symbol.

Many people today are thirsty for God and feel a desire for an intense, personal prayer life that is deep and ongoing. But they encounter obstacles that prevent them from following the path seriously, and especially from persevering on it. Time for God was written with these desires and difficulties in mind. In Time for God, author Jacques Philippe mainly concentrates on mental prayer: prayer that consists of facing God in solitude and silence for a time in order to enter into intimate, loving communion with him. Practicing this kind of prayer regularly is considered by all spiritual masters to be an indispensable path that gives access to genuine Christian life—a path to knowing and loving God that empowers us to respond to his call to holiness addressed to each individual. Philippe draws on years of experience as a spiritual guide to illuminate the fundamental principles of mental prayer and describes some common mistakes and misconceptions that can lead it astray. With simplicity and clarity he explains the foundational principles for a healthy prayer life and gives advice for overcoming the various obstacles that arise when one sets off on the path of interior prayer.
