The Last Piece of the Pie

Auteure: Dwindal C Toliver

Nombre de pages: 101

The Last Piece of the Pie is introduced to provoke the potential reader to think—what could this book be about? (Out of body experience) And now one is entering into my seven soul light dreams filled with fictional events, intended to provoke the readers’ imagination about my unknown spirit, soul, and travel. My vision—through travel, without a human state—has so many variables, that one needs to read each chapter, to get the full meaning of my book of dreams. The drama built around the four seasons—winter, spring, summer, and fall—will bring tears to one’s eyes while reading about the wonders of the new world (what a dream). The (7) dreams will also introduce one to the soul light pledge—vision. With the pledge vision, one will be able to have one’s own book. Believe it or not. My seven dreams are about what one should see—and feel—to learn how to mediate (mind over matter) and get away from repetitive events. Go to the ocean and feel the energy from the water. Go to the mountains and feel the energy. Go to the desert and feel the energy that helps one to sustain life! Feel the air (vision, thought). Appreciate what old Mother Nature has provided for us.

Nombre de pages: 410

This collection of previously unpublished letters and documents deals with themes that are of tremendous significance for our time: the approaching new millennium; karma and reincarnation; life after death; the workings of evil; the destiny of Europe; and the hidden causes of the First World War. It also tells the story of the meeting of two great men: Rudolf Steiner and Helmuth von Moltke (1848-1916), Chief of the general staff of the German army during the outbreak of the First World War, who was dismissed from his post in 1914 following disagreements with the Kaiser. Moltke first came into contact with Steiner through his wife Eliza, who was one of Steiner's esoteric pupils. Steiner's connection to Moltke included personal meetings, letters, and clairvoyant messages after the General's death. These communications are reproduced here in full, along with a key interview with Rudolf Steiner for Le Matin and commentaries and essays by Jürgen von Grone, Jens Heisterkamp, Johannes Tautz and T. H. Meyer.

The Tao of Islam

Auteure: Sachiko Murata

Nombre de pages: 414

The Tao of Islam is a rich and diverse anthology of Islamic teachings on the nature of the relationships between God and the world, the world and the human being, and the human being and God. Focusing on gender symbolism, Sachiko Murata shows that Muslim authors frequently analyze the divine reality and its connections with the cosmic and human domains with a view toward a complementarity or polarity of principles that is analogous to the Chinese idea of yin/yang. Murata believes that the unity of Islamic thought is found, not so much in the ideas discussed, as in the types of relationships that are set up among realities. She pays particular attention to the views of various figures commonly known as "Sufis" and "philosophers," since they approach these topics with a flexibility and subtlety not found in other schools of thought. She translates several hundred pages, most for the first time, from more than thirty important Muslims including the Ikhwan al-Safa', Avicenna, and Ibn al-'Arabi.

Nombre de pages: 353

Throughout many disciplines of spiritual growth, light is mentioned as the source of all life. Those who have experienced enlightenment describe it as being aware of everything that surrounds them as energy and light.

From Sight to Light

Auteure: A. Mark Smith

Nombre de pages: 470

From its inception in Greek antiquity, the science of optics was aimed primarily at explaining sight and accounting for why things look as they do. By the end of the seventeenth century, however, the analytic focus of optics had shifted to light: its fundamental properties and such physical behaviors as reflection, refraction, and diffraction. This dramatic shift—which A. Mark Smith characterizes as the “Keplerian turn”—lies at the heart of this fascinating and pioneering study. Breaking from previous scholarship that sees Johannes Kepler as the culmination of a long-evolving optical tradition that traced back to Greek antiquity via the Muslim Middle Ages, Smith presents Kepler instead as marking a rupture with this tradition, arguing that his theory of retinal imaging, which was published in 1604, was instrumental in prompting the turn from sight to light. Kepler’s new theory of sight, Smith reveals, thus takes on true historical significance: by treating the eye as a mere light-focusing device rather than an image-producing instrument—as traditionally understood—Kepler’s account of retinal imaging helped spur the shift in analytic focus that eventually led to...

Eva's rubies

Auteure: Ewald Kropfitsch

Sitting at his desk in Vienna, "mental turbulence" sweeps the author into both the past and the future.

The book concludes with the "Last Judgement" and a vision of Gustav Mahler from the Resurrection Symphony.

The Divine Vision of Dante's Paradiso

Auteure: William Franke

Nombre de pages: 325

In Canto XVIII of Paradiso, Dante sees thirty-five letters of Scripture - LOVE JUSTICE, YOU WHO RULE THE EARTH - 'painted' one after the other in the sky. It is an epiphany that encapsulates the Paradiso, staging its ultimate goal - the divine vision. This book offers a fresh, intensive reading of this extraordinary passage at the heart of the third canticle of the Divine Comedy. While adapting in novel ways the methods of the traditional lectura Dantis, William Franke meditates independently on the philosophical, theological, political, ethical, and aesthetic ideas that Dante's text so provocatively projects into a multiplicity of disciplinary contexts. This book demands that we question not only what Dante may have meant by his representations, but also what they mean for us today in the broad horizon of our intellectual traditions and cultural heritage.

Nombre de pages: 251

Within each of us, there is a spark—a light in our souls that never dies. It is the divine gift God has given us. The darkness of the world and the illusions of technology have distracted us with their images of whom we are not instead of helping us find the light inside ourselves, which is the gift from God. This is book II of my Emerge series, which is my vision of the world. The book II, Emerge: My Incandescent Heart, continues our search for our souls and hearts in the journey to change ourselves and the world with love, kindness, and compassion. Be who you are meant to be, not who others want you to be. Follow your hearts and find the light of your souls within yourselves so that you can shine with that light and help us make the world a kinder and less evil and dark place—a happier and more loving world. This is my heart and soul. These are my words. Kassi Ydris (June 21, 2018)

Nombre de pages: 217

"Uncharted is a smoking hot Harley ride through the wonders of your soul’s journey." — Christiane Northrup, M.D., New York Times best-selling author of Goddesses Never Age Where are we going? How will we get there? In a world of uncertainty, most of us don’t really know. Our challenge is to sail into uncharted waters—away from the familiar ways that don’t work anymore—to discover ourselves and the infinite potential for our lives. It’s in these as-yet-undiscovered places within us that we come to recognize what we can be and what we can co-create with Spirit. If we try to create guided only by the old, familiar map of our lives, what we create won’t be authentic to who we are becoming; we’ll just be doing the same thing over and over. As intuitive counselor and "spiritual cartographer" Colette Baron-Reid explains, we need a different kind of map—not one that tells us where we’ve been, but one we fill in as each new experience changes us into who we need to be to live our destiny. This new map is a map of the soul. In Uncharted, you’ll learn to draw your own map of the soul as Colette guides you on an inward journey through five interconnected realms. First...

Satan the Anti-Christ and the False Prophet

Auteure: Larry I. Derycke

Nombre de pages: 522

Anti-Christ Defined I feel that it is important to understanding Satan that we define just what is meant by the word anti-Christ. The word Christ is obvious, it refers to the Savior, the son of God, the God of Creation. The English word anti means, to be against, or in opposition to. The problem is that the word anti as used in the Bible is Greek in its origin, and therefore has a definition with more meaning than the English word. In the Bible Concordance anti-Christos, is defined as: False Christ, Substitute for Christ, Opposite of, reverse, neutralizing, antagonistic. Therefore, the anti-Christ is someone or something that makes you think they are Christ, through false representation, and substitution. This can be illustrated in the Bible with the following verses. The purpose of this book is to reveal Gods True Word, to all who seek to know Gods Truth.
