Sacred Trickery and the Way of Kindness: The Radical Wisdom of Jodo
by Alejandro Jodorowsky Gilles FarcetEnter the mind of Jodo and follow his initiatory saga from Zen disciple to revolutionary filmmaker to spiritual teacher• Explores the sacred trickery of shamans he encountered, including Carlos Castaneda, and how intention and action matter more than notions of “true” and “false”• Explains the Way of Kindness and how small acts of generosity and goodness can have a profound effect on your spirit, infusing life with a wealth of happiness• Includes contributions from friends and students of Jodorowsky on their experiences with him, including his son Adan Jodorowsky Known for his surrealist films, his unique approach to tarot, his symbolic comics, and his shamanic therapeutic method of psychomagic, Alejandro Jodorowsky has accomplished an extraordinary amount in his more than 80 years. In this book, we get an intimate look into the inner workings of the cult figure of Jodo. What is revealed is a man who has evolved since his groundbreaking films of the 1970s, El Topo and The Holy Mountain, a man who has grown from a sacred trickster, a shaman of psychomagic, into a brilliant spiritual maverick of the 21st century. We get to see Jodo’s own reflections on the rich tapestry of his remarkable life, including the initiatory failure of the Dune film project, which combined the talents of a multitude of creative greats, including Moebius, Salvador Dali, Orson Welles, Mick Jagger, and H. R. Giger. We learn about Jodo’s years with Marcel Marceau and with great masters such as Ejo Takata, whose Zen training featured strenuous physical and mental ordeals; the sorceress Pachita, who performed psychic surgery on Jodo; and the mysterious Carlos Castaneda, whose sacred trickery reveals how intentions matter more than notions of “true” and “false.” Discussing the Way of Kindness that he now follows, Jodo reveals how intentionally practicing small acts of generosity and goodness can have a profound effect on your spirit, infusing life with a wealth of happiness. From sacred trickery to the path of kindness, Jodo’s radical wisdom discerns the timeless within the immediate and gauges the everyday by the measure of eternity.

Sacred Wounds: Succeeding Because of Life's Pain
by Jan GoldsteinIn this immensely affecting and empowering guide, Jan Goldstein teaches readers how to take their most emotionally painful life events -- their spiritual wounds -- and transform them into a source of power and well-being.Goldstein's life-affirming program is inspired by his own heartbreak: the February morning when he was faced with the sudden news that his twelve-year marriage was ending, leaving Goldstein with primary custody of their three small children. Though paralyzed at first by feelings of loss and depression, Goldstein eventually discovered that the pain allowed him and his children a deeper appreciation for the simple moments of joy -- that his once "broken" family was succeeding not despite its wounds, but because of them.In Sacred Wounds, Goldstein reveals the secret to finding strength in challenging and often traumatic events, outlining a life-changing nine-step process to help readers move through heartache and toward healing. In clear, compassionate language, he refutes the notion of pain as a destroyer, drawing on the compelling stories of many of the people he has counseled along the way: Rick and Sara, who are plagued by infertility; Yvette, an aspiring man who battles her secular desires; Steve, for whom a frightening diagnosis portends the end...and then the beginning of hope. Remarkably affecting and inspiring, Goldstein's stories confirm that we are all well equipped to deal with the inevitable hurts and heartbreaks in life -- if only we release our preconceptions, acknowledge the strengthening power of our wounds, and follow the nine steps to a spiritual rebirth.Indispensable for anyone suffering through spiritual and emotional difficulties, Sacred Wounds is the key to shifting our perceptions and finding new strength and success in the painful experiences we all endure.
The Sacred Year: Mapping The Soulscape Of Spiritual Practice -- How Contemplating Apples, Living In A Cave And Befriending A Dying Woman Revived My Life
by Mike Yankoski"In his life and writing, Michael Yankoski walks a tightrope between action and contemplation, and, behold, in ways we can all learn from, he manages to find a sort of essential balance."—Philip Yancey, author of What's So Amazing About Grace"This book is a joy to the soul and a delight to the heart. It is destined to become a classic within the genre of contemporary spiritual and religious writing."—Phyllis Tickle, compiler of The Divine HoursFrustrated and disillusioned with his life as a Christian motivational speaker, Michael Yankoski was determined to stop merely talking about living a life of faith and start experiencing it. The result was a year of focused engagement with spiritual practices—both ancient and modern—that fundamentally reshaped and revived his life. By contemplating apples for an hour before tasting them (attentiveness), eating on just $2.00 a day (simplicity), or writing letters of thanks (gratitude), Michael discovered a whole new vitality and depth through the intentional life.Guided by the voice of Father Solomon—a local monk—Yankoski's Sacred Year slowly transforms his life. Both entertaining and profound, his story will resonate with those who wish to deepen their own committed faith as well as those who are searching—perhaps for the first time—for their own authentic encounter with the Divine.

Saddled: How a Spirited Horse Reined Me In and Set Me Free
by Susan RichardsThe New York Times bestselling author of Chosen by a Horse explains how caring for an animal taught her to care for herself. One day, at the age of thirty-one, Susan Richards realized that she was an alcoholic. She wrote it down in her journal, struck by the fact that it had taken nine years of waking up hung-over to name her illness. What had changed? Susan had a new horse, a spirited Morgan named Georgia, and, as she says: &“It had something to do with Georgia. It had something to do with making a commitment as enormous as caring for a horse that might live as my companion for the next forty years. It had something to do with love.&” Every day begins with a morning ride. Every day Susan lives a little more and thinks about her mistakes a little less. Every day she learns a little more from Georgia, the kind of horse who doesn&’t go in for indecision, who doesn&’t apologize for her opinions, and who isn&’t afraid to be herself. In Georgia, Susan finds something to draw her back to herself, but also something to keep her steady and focused, to teach her about stepping carefully in unknown territory, to help her learn again about balance. This is a memoir about the power of animals to carry us through the toughest times of our lives—about the importance of constancy, the beauty of quiet, steadfast love, the way loving a good (and sometimes bad!) animal can keep you going. It&’s a wonderful story for Susan&’s (and Georgia&’s) fans, and for anyone who has ever loved an animal enough to keep on living.
Safalta Prapti Ke Swarnim Sutra: सफलता प्राप्ति के स्वर्णिम सूत्र
by Sudhir Dixitहम सभी को सदा प्रेरणा और प्रोत्साहन की ज़रुरत होती है। हमारे आस-पास ऐसे बहुत कम लोग होते हैं, जो यह काम नियमित रूप से कर सकें। यह पुस्तक आपको प्रेरित करने के लिए ही लिखी गई है, और वह भी तुरंत। सफलता के ये प्रेरणादायी कथन सभी महत्वाकांक्षी लोगों के लिए उपयोगी हैं, लेकिन ये उन क्षेत्रों से जुड़े लोगों के लिए ज़्यादा उपयोगी हैं, जहाँ प्रेरणा और प्रोत्साहन की ज़रुरत अधिक होती है- जैसे सेल्स, प्रबंधन, व्यवसाय, करियर, फ्रीलान्सिंग, नेतृत्व, नेटवर्क मार्केटिंग आदि। पुस्तक में शामिल कुछ प्रेरक कथन: सच्ची सफलता के लिए खुद को ये चार सवाल पूछें - क्या? क्यों नहीं? मैं क्यों नहीं? अभी क्यों नहीं? जीवन के दो नियम होते हैं - कभी कोशिश मत छोड़ो और हमेशा इस बात को याद रखो। आप किसी को सीढ़ी पर तब तक ऊपर नहीं चढ़ा सकते जब तक कि वह खुद न चढ़ना चाहे। लीडर के रूप में उत्साही बनें। आप गीली दिया- सिलाई से आग नहीं जला सकते। औसत सेल्समैन एक साल में एक पुस्तक भी नहीं पढ़ता है, इसलिए वह औसत सेल्समैन रहता है। अपने काम को बेहतर तरीके से करें, मलाई अपने आप ऊपर आ जाएगी। ग्राहक आपके नहीं, उनके कारणों से ख़रीदते हैं। आपकी पोशाक आपके बोलने से पहले ही बोल देती है।
