As he imagined desire, he held his breath long enough in his stomach. This is what makes the sensitivity in the body increases. The crown chakra located above the top of the crown will light up. Displays things or what they want. This technique is the basis of the difference why every one dream will come true or not. And all of a sudden I seemed to be pushed out of his body to preach to my friends out there to help fulfill his wish. Similar to praying, is not it? But different, because this is a powerful prayer!(My name is Prana, page 6) Every time I passed the strawberry garden, I never missed it when she started his activities. Picking strawberries with her fingers. The steps lightly go through the bund which separates the row of trees with each other. As she strummed, she bent slightly. And this is the moment most waiting for. Her loose jilbab appeared to be waving in the wind. Appeared mound on her chest that seemed solid and tight. Ah, really thrilling! (Strawberry Girl, page 32) The village calm suddenly broke. All that began since the death of a dog belonging to a resident that happened suddenly. Originally the people thought it was just an ordinary occurrence. But seeing the condition of the corpse of the dog makes them think differently. (The Dog Hunter, page 48)

"A wonderful introduction the Japanese tradition of jisei, this volume is crammed with exquisite, spontaneous verse and pithy, often hilarious, descriptions of the eccentric and committed monastics who wrote the poems." --Tricycle: The Buddhist Review Although the consciousness of death is, in most cultures, very much a part of life, this is perhaps nowhere more true than in Japan, where the approach of death has given rise to a centuries-old tradition of writing jisei, or the "death poem." Such a poem is often written in the very last moments of the poet's life. Hundreds of Japanese death poems, many with a commentary describing the circumstances of the poet's death, have been translated into English here, the vast majority of them for the first time. Yoel Hoffmann explores the attitudes and customs surrounding death in historical and present-day Japan and gives examples of how these have been reflected in the nation's literature in general. The development of writing jisei is then examined--from the longing poems of the early nobility and the more "masculine" verses of the samurai to the satirical death poems of later centuries. Zen Buddhist ideas about death are also described as a preface to the collection of Chinese death poems by Zen monks that are also included. Finally, the last section contains three hundred twenty haiku, some of which have never been assembled before, in English translation and romanized in Japanese.

WINDMILL LESSONS Love you sincerely, O wind it's the same as loving friends of the poor and poor because the wall-roof is like the most wanted dream when fate forced him to be a captain without a cabin I never cursed the lips that mention the propeller even though life begins with a dizzying wind not a machine that repeatedly fondles bearings or the burning of fossils that now have a foreign face We rely on life from a blow to blow then work to pull the two wheels that intersect like a fertile field with scattered seeds but we regularly water it even though there is no rain We believe that every job start with gradual change then learn from the snail that survives from enemy invasion and threat of starvation We believe that every effort beats from the simplicity that is not in vain then contemplate the fallen tree after being slaughtered rot and then pass on the fungi that decompose because that's how opportunity is born not the fruit of waiting-luck but from event to event what was once a normal thing struggling to free you from the dark embrace without ever waking up a bunch of smoke is a very, very sacred mission without shouldering any strings attached another day without polluting the baby's soft nose young children, and nursing mothers oh, no matter how fast-persistent we run keep the heart back where we started Surakarta, November 25-28, 2013 The poem was published in Suara Merdeka newspaper, December 1, 2013.

A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Here is a book as joyous and painful, as mysterious and memorable, as childhood itself. I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings captures the longing of lonely children, the brute insult of bigotry, and the wonder of words that can make the world right. Maya Angelou’s debut memoir is a modern American classic beloved worldwide. Sent by their mother to live with their devout, self-sufficient grandmother in a small Southern town, Maya and her brother, Bailey, endure the ache of abandonment and the prejudice of the local “powhitetrash.” At eight years old and back at her mother’s side in St. Louis, Maya is attacked by a man many times her age—and has to live with the consequences for a lifetime. Years later, in San Francisco, Maya learns that love for herself, the kindness of others, her own strong spirit, and the ideas of great authors (“I met and fell in love with William Shakespeare”) will allow her to be free instead of imprisoned. Poetic and powerful, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings will touch hearts and change minds for as long as people read. “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings liberates the reader into life simply because Maya Angelou confronts her own life with such a moving wonder, such a luminous dignity.”—James Baldwin From the Paperback edition.

Emily Jensen and Laura Wifler help you understand and apply the gospel to common issues moms face so you can connect your Sunday morning faith to the Monday morning tantrum.
