Sage Warrior: Wake to Oneness, Practice Pleasure, Choose Courage, Become Victory (The Revolutionary Love Project)
by Valarie KaurProfound inner wisdom for courageous action—from the author of See No Stranger and founder of the Revolutionary Love Project, a &“prophetic voice of our generation&” (America Ferrera)How do we find the wisdom to envision a new world and the courage to fight for it?How do we survive seemingly apocalyptic times?In a world on fire, how do we find love and joy?We are not the first to ask these questions—in fact, seeking answers to them forged one of the world's great wisdom traditions. In a time riven by caste, conquest, and cruelty, Sikhs blazed the path of the sant sipahi, the sage warrior. The sage radiates love and Oneness; the warrior activates that ethical power to fight for humanity. These energies empowered the first Sikhs to survive near-annihilation in South Asia nearly half a millennium ago. The sage warrior is the essential archetype for our time of turmoil—one we can all embody to cultivate our souls and transform the world.Valarie Kaur combines the epic, immersive story of her Sikh ancestors—centering the stories of the women who worked to map the path of the sage warrior—with the chronicle of a personal journey: her pilgrimage with her young children to the Panjab, India, where the stories unfolded, an occasionally comic adventure woven with sublime moments of connection and insight. Each chapter offers a lesson that emerges from the stories—from practicing pleasure to metabolizing grief to choosing courage.Sage Warrior shimmers with wisdom: Every story is accompanied by original artwork, music, and meditations, illuminating new ways of seeing and being. This journey is for anyone—from any faith tradition or spiritual practice or none at all—who hungers for a better world and is ready to discover the depth of their own power.

Sahajata: સહજતા
by Dada Bhagwanમોક્ષ કોને કહેવાય? પોતાના શુદ્ધાત્મા પદને પ્રાપ્ત કરવું તે. – જે કુદરતી રીતે સ્વાભાવિક છે- જે સહજ છે. જો કે કર્મબંધનનાં અને અજ્ઞાનતાના કારણે આપણને આપણા શુધ્ધ સ્વરૂપનું ભાન નથી – જે સ્વભાવથી જ સહજ છે - શુદ્ધાત્મા છે. તો સહજતા કેવીરીતે પ્રાપ્ત કરવી ? જ્ઞાની પુરુષ પાસે તેનો ઉપાય છે અને આવા મહાન જ્ઞાની પુરુષ, દાદાશ્રીએ આપણને સહજતા પ્રાપ્ત કરવાની ચાવીઓ આપી છે. તેમણે આપણને પોતાના શુદ્ધ સ્વરૂપનો પરિચય કરાવ્યો(આત્મજ્ઞાન આપ્યું). મૂળ આત્મા તો સહજ છે, શુદ્ધ જ છે. લોકો ઈમોશનલ(ચંચળ/અસહજ) બને છે કારણકે તેઓ વિચાર, વાણી અને વર્તન (મન-વચન-કાયા) સાથે તન્મયાકાર થઈ જાય છે. તેને જુદાં રાખવાથી અને તેના જ્ઞાતા-દ્રષ્ટા રહેવાથી તમે સહજતા પ્રાપ્ત કરી શકશો. એકવાર જ્ઞાન પ્રાપ્ત કર્યા (જ્ઞાનવિધિ દ્વારા) પછી પોતાનો શુદ્ધાત્મા(જે સહજ છે અને રહેશે) જાગૃત થાય છે. પછી મન-બુદ્ધિ-અહંકાર-શરીરની સહજ સ્થિતિ પ્રાપ્ત કરવા માટે દાદાશ્રીએ પાંચ આજ્ઞાઓ આપી છે. પ્રસ્તુત પુસ્તકમાં દાદાશ્રીએ સહજતાનો અર્થ, સહજ સ્થિતિમાં વિક્ષેપનાં કારણો અમે જ્ઞાતા-દ્રષ્ટા રહીને સહજતા કેવીરીતે પ્રાપ્ત કરવી આ બધાનું સંપૂર્ણ વિજ્ઞાન આપ્યું છે. આ પુસ્તકનું વાંચન અવશ્ય આપણને સહજ સ્વરૂપ બનાવશે અને શાંતિપૂર્ણ જીવન તરફ દોરી જશે.

Sailing Home
by Norman FischerHomer's Odyssey has a timeless allure. It is an ancient story that is significant for every generation: the struggle of a homesick, battle-weary man longing to return to love and family. Odysseus's strivings to overcome divine and earthly obstacles and to control his own impulsive nature hold valuable lessons for people facing their own metaphorical battles and everyday conflicts -- people who are, like Odysseus, "heartsick on the open sea," whether from dealing with daily skirmishes at the office or from fighting in an international war. Sailing Home breathes fresh air into a classic we thought we knew, revealing its profound guidance for navigating life's pitfalls, perils, and spiritual challenges. Norman Fischer deftly incorporates Buddhist, Judaic, Christian, and popular thought, as well as his own unique and sympathetic understanding of life, in his reinterpretation of Odysseus's familiar wanderings as lessons that everyone can use. We see how to resist the seduction of the Sirens' song to stop sailing and give up; how to bide our time in a situation and wait for the right opportunity -- as Odysseus does when faced with the murderous, one-eyed Cyclops; and how to reassess our story and rediscover our purpose and identity if, like the Lotus-Eaters, we have forgotten the past. With meditations that yield personal revelations, illuminating anecdotes from Fischer's and his students' lives, and stories from many wisdom traditions, Sailing Home shows the way to greater purpose in your own life.You will learn a new way to view your path, when to wait and when to act, when to speak your mind and when to exercise discretion, how to draw on your innate strength and distinguish between truth and deception, and how to deal with aging and changing relationships. Sailing Home provides the courage you need for your journey, to renew bonds with your loved ones, and to make the latter portion of life a heartfelt time of spirit and love, so that -- just as Odysseus does -- you can defeat the forces of entropy and death.
Sailing True North: Ten Admirals and the Voyage of Character
by Admiral James StavridisFrom one of the most distinguished admirals of our time and a former Supreme Allied Commander of NATO, a meditation on leadership and character refracted through the lives of ten of the most illustrious naval commanders in historyIn his acclaimed book Sea Power, James Stavridis reckoned with the history and geopolitics of the world's great bodies of water. Now in Sailing True North, he offers a much more intimate, human accounting: the lessons of leadership and character contained in the lives and careers of history's most significant naval commanders. Admiral Stavridis brings a lifetime of reflection to bear on the subjects of his study--on naval history, on the vocation of the admiral with its special tests and challenges, and on the sweep of global geopolitics. Above all, this is a book that will help you navigate your own life's voyage: the voyage of leadership of course, but more important, the voyage of character. Sadly, evil men can be effective leaders sailing toward bad ends; ultimately, leadership without character is like a ship underway without a rudder. Sailing True North helps us find the right course to chart.Simply as epic lives, the tales of these ten admirals offer up a collection of the greatest imaginable sea stories. Moreover, spanning 2,500 years from ancient Greece to the twenty-first century, Sailing True North is a book that offers a history of the world through the prism of our greatest naval leaders. None of the admirals in this volume were perfect, and some were deeply flawed. But from Themistocles, Drake, and Nelson to Nimitz, Rickover, and Hopper, important themes emerge, not least that there is an art to knowing when to listen to your shipmates and when to turn a blind eye; that serving your reputation is a poor substitute for serving your character; and that taking time to read and reflect is not a luxury, it's a necessity.By putting us on personal terms with historic leaders in the maritime sphere he knows so well, James Stavridis has in Sailing True North offered a compass that can help us navigate the story of our own lives, wherever that voyage takes us.

Saint Germain the Deathless
by Andrew LangThackeray's tale is written in a tone of mock mysticism, but he confesses that he likes his own story, in which the strange hero, through all his many lives or reappearances, and through all the countless loves on which he fatuously plumes himself, retains a slight German-Jewish accent. It appears to me that the historic original of these romantic characters is no other than the mysterious Comte de Saint-Germain...

You'll not only thrill to Joan's heroism; your heart will delight in her example of loving surrender to God's will. Every detail of her life will ring out to you as a joyful witness to the grace of God.
