It's the Thought That Counts: Why Mind Over Matter Really Works
by David R. HamiltonWhen pharmaceutical scientist David R. Hamilton, Ph.D., observed the results of tests on new drugs, he noticed that patients receiving control placebo pills reported the same level of improvement as those receiving the actual drug. Seeing this result repeat itself time and time again, he became fascinated by the mind-body connection and started to research the work of scientists, mystics, and healers working in this field. The result is this groundbreaking book, in which Hamilton explains how the mind and emotions can influence the well-being of your body and even the structure of your DNA. You’ll learn about: the physical impact of meditation, why sending healing thoughts to a person in need is so beneficial, the power of love and its impact on body cells, and all the many ways in which your thoughts affect you.

Izzy & Lenore: Two Dogs, An Unexpected Journey, And Me
by Jon KatzBONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Jon Katz's Going Home.In his previous books, New York Times bestselling author Jon Katz introduced us to the delightful menagerie at Bedlam Farm, including Izzy, the unforgettable border collie rescue. Now, in Izzy & Lenore, Katz delves deeper into his connection with the beautiful, once-abandoned dog, learning yet again about the unexpected places animals can take us. Affectionate and intuitive, Izzy is unlike any dog Katz has encountered, and the two undertake a journey Katz could not have imagined without the arrival of a new companion: a spirited, bright-eyed black Labrador puppy named Lenore. As trained hospice volunteers visiting homes and nursing facilities in upstate New York, Katz and Izzy bring comfort and canine companionship to people who most need it. An eighty-year-old Alzheimer's patient smiles for the first time in months when she feels Izzy's soft fur. A retired logger joyfully remembers his own beloved dog when he sees Izzy. As Izzy bonds with patients and Katz focuses on their families, the author begins to come to terms with his own life, discovering dark realities he has never confronted. Meanwhile, Lenore-quickly dubbed the Hound of Love-arrives at Bedlam. Her genial personality and boundless capacity for affection steer Katz out of the shadows, rekindle his love of working with dogs, and restore his connection to the farm and the animals and people around him. Humorous and deeply moving, Izzy & Lenore is a story of a man confronting his past, embracing the blessings of his current life, and rediscovering the meaning of friendship, family, and faith. Katz shares an uplifting tale of love, compassion, and the rich and complex relationships between dogs and their humans.
I’ll Write Your Name on Every Beach: A Mother’s Quest for Comfort, Courage and Clarity After Suicide Loss
by Susan AuerbachWritten by a mother who lost her 21 year old son to suicide, this book deals with the themes of suicide loss through the lens of the author's personal grief. Addressing the process of post-traumatic growth, this memoir provides the bereaved with therapy exercises and creative activities to help them come to terms with their loss. Although it deals directly with losing a child, much of the book pertains to grief generally, especially complicated grief after a sudden death, and thus provides comfort to any reader who has lost a close one to suicide or anyone interested in young people struggling with mental health. Organised thematically, it addresses the many issues and stages involved in the grieving process and ends each chapter with a variety of beneficial yoga, breathing and therapy activities. This allows readers to dip in and out of the book, and go at their own pace - replicating the fact that grief is not a linear journey but an iterative one that goes back and forth. This book is a lifeline for anyone struggling to process loss.

Jagat Karta Kaun?: जगत कर्ता कोण?
by Dada Bhagwanअनादि काळापासून जगाची वास्तविकता जाणण्यासाठी मनुष्य प्रयत्नशील आहे. परंतु तो खरे काय ते जाणू शकलेला नाही. मुख्यतः वास्तविकतेत, ‘मी कोण आहे ? या जगाला चालविणारा कोण आहे? तसेच जगाचा रचनाकार कोण आहे ?’ हे जाणून घ्यायला हवे. प्रस्तुत संकलनात खरा कर्ता कोण आहे, हे रहस्य उघड केले आहे. सामान्यतः काही चांगले झाले तर ‘मी केले’ असे तो मानतो आणि वाईट झाले तर दुसऱ्यावर आक्षेप घेतो की ‘त्याने बिघडविले.’ नाही तर ‘माझी ग्रहदशा बिघडली आहे’ असे बोलतो, किंवा ‘देवाने केले’ असा आरोप पण करतो. या सर्व राँग बिलीफस् (चुकीच्या मान्यता) आहेत. देव काय असा पक्षपात करणारा आहे का, की तो आपले नुकसान करील ? हे जग कोणी बनविले ? जर कोणी बनविणारा असेल तर मग त्याला कोणी बनविले? मग त्या बनविणाऱ्याला कोणी बनविले ? म्हणजे या गोष्टीचा अंतच नाही. आणि दुसरा असाही प्रश्न पडतो की, जर त्याला जग बनवायचेच होते तर त्याने असे जग का बनविले की ज्यात सर्व दुःखीच आहेत ? कोणीच सुखी नाही ? म्हणजे त्याची मौज आणि आमची शिक्षा, हा कसला न्याय? या काळात कर्त्या संबंधीचा सिद्धांत पहिल्यांदाच विश्वाला यथार्थपणे परम पूज्य दादा भगवानांनी दिला आहे, आणि तो असा आहे की जगात कोणीही स्वतंत्र कर्ता नाही. या जगाला रचणारा किंवा चालविणारा कोणीही नाही. हे जग सायंटिफिक सरकमस्टेन्शियल एविडन्सने चालत आहे. ज्याला परम पूज्य दादाश्री ‘व्यवस्थित शक्ती’ असे म्हणतात. जगात कोणीही स्वतंत्र कर्ता नाही, परंतु सगळे नैमित्तिक कर्ता आहेत, सगळे निमित्त आहेत. गीतेत पण श्रीकृष्णाने अर्जुनाला सांगितले होते, हे अर्जुना! तू युद्धात निमित्तमात्र आहेस, तू युद्धाचा कर्ता नाहीस. प्रस्तुत पुस्तिकेत कर्ता कोण, याचे रहस्य परम पूज्य दादाश्रींनी साध्या सरळ भाषेत, हृदयात उतरेल अशा प्रकारे समजावून सांगितले आहे.

by Dada Bhagwanअनादी कल से जगत की वास्तविकता जानने की मनुष्य की लालसा है मगर वह सही जान नहीं पाया है| मुख्यत: वास्तविकता में मैं कौन हूँ, इस जगत को चलाने वाला कौन है तथा इस जगत का रचयिता कौन है, यह जानना है| प्रस्तुत संकलन में सच्चा कर्ता कौन है, यह रहस्य खुल्ला किया गया है| आमतौर पर अच्छा हुआ तो ‘मैंने किया” मान लेता है और बुरा हुआ तो दूसरे पर आक्षेप देता है कि ‘इसने बिगाड़ दिया|’ नहीं तो ‘मेरी ग्रह दशा बिगड़ गयी है’बोलेगा या तो ‘भगवान् ने किया’ ऐसा भी आक्षेप दे देता है| यह सब रोंग मान्यताएं हैं| भगवांन क्या पक्षपात करने वाला है कि आपका नुकसान करे? यह दुनिया किसने बनाई? अगर बनाने वाला होता तो उसको किसने बनाया? फिर उसको भी किसने बनाया? याने उसका अंत ही नहीं है| और दूसरा यह भी प्रश्न पैदा होता है कि दुनिया उसको बनानी ही थी, तो फिर ऐसी कैसी दुनिया बनाई कि जिसमे सभी दुखी हैं? किसी को भी सुख नहीं है? उसकी मज़ा और अपनी सजा, यह कैसा न्याय?! इस काल में करता सम्बन्धी का सिद्धांत पहली बार विश्व को यथार्थ स्वरुप में परम पूज्य दादा भगवान् ने दिया है और वह यह है कि इस दुनिया में कोई स्वतंत्र कर्ता नहीं है| इस दुनिया को रचने वाला या चलाने वाला कोई भी नहीं है| यह जगत चलता है, वह साइंटिफिक सरकमस्टेन्शियल एविडेंस से चलता है| जिसको परम पूज्य दादाश्री ‘व्यवस्थित शक्ति’ कहते हैं| जगत में कोई भी स्वतंत्र करता नहीं है, मगर, सब नैमितिक कर्ता हैं, सभी निमित हैं| गीता में भी भगवान श्रीकृष्ण ने अर्जुन को कहा था कि, "हे! अर्जुन! तू इस युद्ध में निमित मात्र है, तू युद्ध का कर्ता नहीं है| प्रस्तुत पुस्तिका में करता का रहस्य परम पूज्य दादाश्री की सादी, सरल भाषा में दिल में उतर जाए, इस तरह से समझाया गया है|
Jaguar Woman
by Lynn AndrewsLynn V. Andrews takes the reader with her as she goes on inward journeys with the help of the Sisterhood of the Shields, and relates the stories of others. Join her as she is initiated into the Sisterhood and creates her own shield, which will show her the nature of her spiritual path (Spirit Woman). Follow her to the Yucatan, where the medicine wheel leads her, and she is faced with the terrifying reality of the butterfly tree (Jaguar Woman). Enter the Dreamtime with her, where she emerges in medieval England as Catherine, and encounters the Grandmother, who offers to show Andrews how to make her life one of goodness, power, adventure, and love (The Woman of Wyrrd). Not all these stories describe the author's own spiritual experiences. Meet Sin Coraz-n, an initiate into the Sisterhood, whose husband abandons her. She nearly succumbs to her inner dark power and unleashes her rage on men and the Sisterhood (Dark Sister). Andrews also writes about the elder women of the Sisterhood: their loves, their lives, their losses (Tree of Dreams). Andrews shows us how to channel our own spiritual and intellectual energy and balance the need for love with the desire for power (Love and Power). She takes the reader on numerous spiritual journeys that inevitably uplift.
Jailbreaking the Goddess: A Radical Revisioning of Feminist Spirituality
by Lasara Firefox AllenJailbreaking the Goddess is a revolutionary revisioning of the feminine divine. Where the maiden, mother, crone archetypal system is tied to female biology and physical stages of life, the fivefold model liberates the female experience from the shackles of the reproductive model.In a woman's lifetime, she will go through several different cycles of beginnings, potential, creation, mastery, and wisdom. This fivefold model is not an adaption of the threefold. It is a new system that embraces the powerful, fluid nature of the lived experience of women today.Join Lasara Firefox Allen as she explores the nature of the five archetypes; gives examples of what areas of life each might preside over; lists goddesses that fit within each archetype; suggests ways to begin building relationship with the different archetypes; and provides simple rituals for recognition, transition, and invocation.Praise:"Jailbreaking the Goddess is an important contribution to the writings on Goddess tradition and feminist spirituality...I love her political savvy, her sensitivity around issues of diversity and cultural awareness and appropriation, and her unabashed celebration of pleasure, sensuality, and life!"—Starhawk"This fiercely inspired body of work is art, theory, and passion. Genius."—Rosa De Anda, from her foreword"Lasara Firefox Allen delves deep into the ways in which colonialist language has shaped our experience of the divine feminine...This is an innovative work that has the potential to change the face of modern feminist spirituality."—Suzanne Sterling, founder of Voice of Change

Jamás moriremos
by Deepak Chopra"En Jamás moriremos el Dr. Chopra nos ofrece el beneficio de su singular experiencia en la vida, desde la práctica de la medicina en la sala de urgencias hasta sus aventuras en la metafísica oriental. Este libro es inspirador, reconfortante y bien informado. Presenta información convincente sobre la supervivencia a la muerte corporal, mientas nos muestra el sendero hacia la alegría y la vastedad, y el descubrimiento de quienes somos en realidad, que es mucho más que sólo un cuerpo físico." -RUSSELL TARG, médico y autor de The End of Suffering. "Chopra ilumina de manera brillante una maravillosa variedad de experiencias extraordinarias, documentadas por científicos e ingenieros, y teje con ellos un tapiz que incluye diferentes tradiciones religiosas al agruparlas, compararlas y analizarlas. Este empirismo radical se inscribe en la tradición de William James y tiene un éxito hermoso, como el de James, al arrojar la 'carga de la prueba' a los materialistas reduccionistas, a quienes por varias décadas, mientras afirmaban hablar en nombre de la ciencia, se les ha permitido ignorar la base misma de la ciencia: los hechos. Chopra compara a continuación esas experiencias e información con algunas de las metáforas con las que nosotros, en el mundo de la ciencia, nos divertimos e impresionamos a las masas. Deepak ha dejado caer el mallete y ha exigido que los materialistas reduccionistas asuman la carga de la prueba. Yo puedo predecir con confianza que lo más que harán es tratar de ignorarlo." -RUSTUM ROY, profesor de la Universidad Estatal de Pensilvania, Universidad Estatal de Arizona y Universidad de Arizona; elegido como miembro de la Academia Nacional de Ciencias o de Ingeniería de los Estados Unidos, Suecia, Japón, Rusia e India. "Con sabiduría profunda y claridad, Deepak Chopra revela una impresionante perspectiva caleidoscópica sobre las posibilidades infinitas en el campo de Akasha. Uno puede identifi carse fácilmente con la experiencia personal en el ciclo de la vida cotidiana, cristalizada en forma de historias. Cada cultura, religión e individuo puede acceder al sendero espiritual de su elección en esta obra notable donde 'el amor, la verdad, la compasión, el nacimiento y la muerte son iguales' y la eternidad es AHORA." -HERMANA JUDIAN BREITENBACH, R. N., Orden católica de las siervas pobres de Jesucristo, Centro Namaste para la Educación Holística, La Porte, Indianápolis. "Una exploración asombrosa y convincente acerca de lo que es nuestra próxima vida. Deepak Chopra nos lleva del dogma religioso a la verdad espiritual. Jamás moriremos nos permite darnos cuenta de que todos pertenecemos a una fe y somos participantes integrales de un plan divino. Nos transladamos de manera colectiva en nuestra conciencia hacia el esplendor espiritual en esta vida y en el más allá. Las preguntas exteriores encuentran respuesta y las convicciones interiores encuentran su confirmación en este gran libro, del que estoy muy agradecido." -TOM ZENDER, presidente del Consejo para el Liderazgo en Unidad; miembro
Jane Austen's Guide to Life: Thoughtful Lessons For The Modern Woman
by Lori SmithJane Austen has become our patron saint of romance, our goddess of happy endings. Her name is synonymous with romantic sighs, period costumes, and the ideal of what love should be. But if she could give us advice about life and love, what would she tell us? What would she make of Match.com, of our Real Housewives, or of our obsession with finding The One?Austen’s stories give us relationship advice that still works today, but her life offers us so much more wisdom than just that pertaining to love. In our fame-obsessed culture, it’s refreshing to think that Austen preferred to remain anonymous. Ironically, Jane Austen—master of love stories—never married and can teach us something about being single. She also endured many painful circumstances and managed them with grace and humor. In this light biography and guide, author Lori Smith surmises about Austen’s sensible advice for twenty-first-century women—on everything from living our dreams, being a woman of substance, finding a good man, managing money, and much more.As such an astute student of human nature, Austen can teach us an awful lot about ourselves and about what it means to live well.
