The Little Red Book of Yoga Wisdom (Little Red Books)
by Kelsie BesawIn Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism, the word yoga means "spiritual discipline." Modern yoga is thought of mainly in the context of its postures, but the actual meaning of yoga goes much deeper than that. Though its exact history is unknown, the first recorded instance appears in ancient Shamanism, a religion that involved healing its community members, among other functions.Throughout history, yoga has developed and adapted depending on its practicing members. While its original focus was applying and understanding the world, its focus was later changed to the self, with self-enlightenment being the ultimate goal. Later, the poses and meditation became critical elements in practicing yoga, a development introduced by Buddhist teachings.Yoga has many interpretations, and it has many teachers. From ancient yogis such as Buddha to more modern experts such as B. K. S. Iyengar, there is much wisdom to be gleaned from these pages, and there is much that can be discarded. As many say in the yoga world, if something does not work for you, then it is not true for you. There have been countless yogis and yoga experts throughout history, delving into the deepest meanings of yoga as well as scratching its most shallow surface. As readers will discover from this inspirational collection of yoga wisdom, there is no one way to do yoga, see yoga, or feel yoga.

The Lives of Things (Studies in Continental Thought)
by Charles E. Scott“[Scott] argues that things have lives beyond our cognitive grasp but are nonetheless formative of memories . . . thought, language, and action” (Choice).In The Lives of Things, Charles E. Scott reconsiders our relationships with ordinary, everyday things and our capacity to engage them in their particularity. He takes up the Greek notion of phusis, or physicality, as a way to point out limitations in refined and commonplace views of nature and the body as well as a device to highlight the often-overlooked lives of things that people encounter. Scott explores questions of unity, purpose, coherence, universality, and experiences of wonder and astonishment in connection with scientific fact and knowledge. He develops these themes with lightness and wit, ultimately articulating a new interpretation of the appearances of things that are beyond the reach of language and thought.“Like Foucault and Levinas before him, though in very different ways, Scott makes an oblique incision into phenomenology . . . [it is] the kind of book to which people dazed by the specters of nihilism will be referred by those in the know.” —David Wood“Refreshing and original.” —Edward S. Casey“This new work situates Scott . . . as a leading American scholar in the Continental tradition. In this important new contribution, he argues that things have lives beyond our cognitive grasp but are nonetheless formative of memories (biological, institutional, and cultural), thought, language, and action. Scott’s argument underscores the importance of the physicality (phusis) of things, which has been sidelined in philosophical thought. Dewey’s and Heidegger’s consideration of physicality and the relation between the pragmatist and Continental traditions are built on to develop an account of phusis that emphasizes animation, lightness, density, and the thereness of physicality. Scott’s analysis of density, luminosity, and physicality in Foucault’s and Heidegger’s work and of the displacement of subjectivity is incisive and critical. His final chapter on nihilism is a significant contribution in rethinking nihilism’s negative connotations and resituating it as allowing for a multiplicity of discourses, for regions of recognition, and for life-affirming experiences. Scott’s wit and personal experiences are woven throughout the text. Highly recommended for upper-division undergraduates through faculty.” —N. A. McHugh, Choice

The Living I Ching: Using Ancient Chinese Wisdom to Shape Your Life
by Ming-Dao DengFrom the author of 365 Tao and a leading authority on Taoist practice and philosophy comes a completely innovative translation of the classic text of Eastern wisdom, the I Ching.<P> The I Ching, or Book of Changes, is an ancient manual for divining the future. Its basic text is traditionally attributed to the Chinese King Wen, the Duke of Zhou, and the philosopher Confucius. By tossing coins, rolling dice, using a computer, or, more traditionally, counting yarrow stalks, one can create a seemingly random combination of heads or tails, odd or even, yin or yang, to construct six lines (for example, solid for odd numbers or broken for even numbers). These six lines make up a hexagram that provides advice, predictions, and answers to questions on topics from love and career to family and finance.<P> While known mostly as a tool of divination, the I Ching is also a repository of centuries of wisdom. Most of the existing translations offer either dense, scholarly commentary or little more than fortune-cookie platitudes, but in The Living I Ching Deng Ming-Dao takes a more holistic approach. His new translation recovers the true wisdom and philosophy of this ancient classic, so that the I Ching becomes more than just a book of fortune-telling -- it becomes a manual for living.

The Living Maya
by Patricio Balona Robert Sitler Gaspar Pedro GonzalezAuthor Robert Sitler's immersion in Mayan culture began with a transformative spiritual experience more than three decades ago in the ruins of Palenque, Mexico. Led by a local to a nearby Mayan village, Sitler discovered firsthand what traditional Mayan life was like--a community of people living in peace with each other and their physical surroundings.

The Living Spirit
by Sheryl Iris GlickI have written The Living Spirit not just for healers, but for anyone who wants to awaken to their soul's mission and to the incredible plan God has for them. It is intended as a compassionate and supportive guide for others beginning their spiritual journey as mediums, psychics, and energy healers or simply for those with questions about who they are, what life is all about, and whether there is indeed life after death. In short, it is the book I wish I had on that night all those years ago. In gratitude for my spiritual gifts, I made a commitment to live according to the universal laws of energy and to share all I've learned with others. This includes helping others to conquer their childhood fears and limitations so their souls can mature. As our souls grow and expand, our physical lives expand and abound in abundance. It is my hope that by reading the personal stories shared by a host of people and those from my daily life, it will become apparent to you that each of us is more than we appear to be. We can transform our selves and our world into a place that reflects the best of our divine gifts. When one shifts to living in conjunction with spirit, and to moving through their emotional issues with new vision and expertise, anything is possible. Another major emphasis of this book is to share the miraculous happenings and coincidences that have proven to me, a former skeptic, that life is not random, and all our experiences are the way to a higher understanding of self. There are three main points that I hope readers take away from The Living Spirit: -We are divine soul beings interconnected to each other and to the universal energy that supports all of us. -Life is not random. Throughout our lives we will experience a series of coincidences that are not coincidental at all, but Spirit, whispering words of love and guidance in our ears. -Our loved ones in afterlife guide us to expand our understanding of our soul nature and our physical lives. I invite readers to share this journey with me and learn to let go of any restriction preventing their full enjoyment of life. Once we become aware of how we can recognize and utilize coincidences, synchronicities, and higher guidance, we ca we can begin our exploration of what these mean in our lives and in our role in the world. We all have the Divine-given abilities to repair our wounds and misguided thinking. Through meditation and energy work like Reiki, we can learn to quiet the mind of negative chatter and learn to find that place within where we are sure of God's love and guidance.
