by Max LucadoCada año, la temporada navideña impulsa a las personas a hacerse las preguntas sobre la navidad: ¿cuál es el objetivo del bebé en el pesebre? ¿Quién era él? ¿Qué tiene que ver su nacimiento conmigo?

Aatam Shakshatkar: आत्मसाक्षात्कार
by Dada Bhagwanजीवमात्र क्या ढूंढता है? आनंद ढूंढता है, लेकिन घड़ीभर भी आनंद नहीं मिल पाता | विवाह समारोह में जाएँ या नाटक में जाएँ, लेकिन वापिस फिर दुःख आ जाता है | जिस सुख के बाद दुःख आए, उसे सुख ही कैसे कहेंगे? वह तो मूर्छा का आनंद कहलाता है | सुख तो परमानेन्ट होता है | यह तो टेम्परेरी सुख हैं और बल्कि कल्पित हैं, माना हुआ है | हर एक आत्मा क्या ढूंढता है? हमेशा के लिए सुख, शाश्वत सुख ढूंढता है | वह ‘इसमें से मिलेगा, इसमें से मिलेगा | यह ले लूँ, ऐसा करूँ, बंगला बनाऊ तो सुख आएगा, गाड़ी ले लूँ तो सुख मिलेगा’, ऐसे करता रहता है | लेकिन कुछ भी नहीं मिलता | बल्कि और अधिक जंजालों में फँस जाता है | सुख खुद के अंदर ही है, आत्मा में ही है | अत: जब आत्मा प्राप्त करता है, तब ही सनातन (सुख) ही प्राप्त होगा |
Aatm Sakshatkar: આત્મસાક્ષાત્કાર
by Dada Bhagwanજીવ માત્ર શું ખોળે છે ? આનંદ ખોળે છે, પણ ઘડીવાર આનંદ મળતો નથી. લગ્નમાં જાય કે નાટકમાં જાય, પણ વળી પાછું દુઃખ આવે છે. જે સુખ પછી દુઃખ આવે એને સુખ કહેવાય જ કેમ ? એ તો મૂર્છાનો આનંદ કહેવાય. સુખ તો ‘પરમેનન્ટ’ હોય. આ તો ‘ટેમ્પરરી’ સુખ છે ને પાછું કલ્પિત છે, માનેલું છે. દરેક આત્મા શું ખોળે છે ? કાયમનું સુખ, શાશ્વત સુખ ખોળે છે. તે ‘આમાંથી આવશે. આ લઉં. આમ કરું, બંગલો બંધાવું તો સુખ આવશે, ગાડી લઉં તો સુખ આવશે.’ એમ કર્યા કરે છે પણ કશું આવતું નથી. ઊલટો વધારે ને વધારે જંજાળોમાં ગૂંચાય છે. સુખ પોતાની મહીં જ છે, આત્મામાં જ છે. એટલે આત્મા પ્રાપ્ત કરે તો (સનાતન) સુખ જ પ્રાપ્ત થાય.

by Terdema UsseryTHE ABCs OF CHRISTIANITY is a concise summary of the fundamental principles of the religion of Jesus, presented so today's generation will understand the Bible and experience the gift of knowing God.

But this book is what texting is to ancient scrolls with each concept presented in concise, almost outline, form. Every doctrine is further referenced by Scripture, allowing readers to use the Bible translation of their choice-whether it be a leather-bound King James Version on onion-skin paper, a Biblical translation app, (on phone or tablet), or favorite spirituality Internet site. Stripped of anecdotes, wordsmithing, and other mechanics used to communicate biblical truth, this handbook is meant to serve all who wish to live in the now and experience the gift of actively knowing God.

La abolición del hombre
by C. S. LewisAsombroso y profético, La abolición del hombre sigue siendo una de las obras más controvertidas de C.S. Lewis. Lewis se propone persuadir a su audiencia sobre la importancia actual y la relevancia de los valores objetivos universales, como el coraje y el honor, y la necesidad fundamental de la ley natural. También hace un caso convincente de que el retirar uno de estos pilares de nuestro sistema educativo, aunque sea «en nombre de la ciencia», sería catastrófico. National Review lo coloca en el número siete en sus «100 mejores libros de no ficción del siglo XX».
