by Christine R. PageUna guía a la expansión de la conciencia que será posible durante la alineación galáctica de 2012 • Explica los preparativos psicoespirituales necesarios para hacer la transición a esta nueva era • Muestra cómo la alineación del sol con el centro galáctico permitirá a los humanos experimentar la forma de conciencia normalmente reservada para chamanes, faraones y sabios En 2012, por primera vez en casi 26.000 años, nuestro sol estará casi perfectamente alineado con el centro galáctico. Christine Page explica que, como fuente de toda creación, nuestra Galáctica es la Gran Madre y su centro es su corazón. Al alinearse la Tierra con el corazón de la Gran Madre, la alineación galáctica anuncia el renacimiento de las divinas cualidades femeninas de la Diosa Triple: la intuición, la creatividad emocional y la renovación. Basada en la alquimia y la mitología, Page detalla cómo conectarse y cómo usar los medios espirituales sagrados descubiertos durante la alineación para fundirnos con la Gran Madre, una transformación espiritual que nos permitirá expandir nuestra conciencia y experimentarnos a nosotros mismos como seres eternos.

2030 Agenda and India: Exploring Convergence and Transcendence (South Asia Economic and Policy Studies)
by Sachin Chaturvedi T. C. James Sabyasachi Saha Prativa ShawThis book presents a selection of multifaceted development issues involving social, economic and environmental aspects, in order to inspire and guide implementation of the United Nations’ SDGs. It focuses on economic development, human well-being and sustainable pathways, with special attention to financial and knowledge resources, as well as measurement concepts. In doing so, the book draws a distinction between sustainability and sustainable pathways by refraining from dealing with broader and more direct environmental sustainability issues like climate change, environmental degradation and sustainable energy. The choice of topics, apart from their relevance for India, was guided by their importance in connection with multiple SDG goals. In addition to revealing the intricacies of systemic relationships and the dilemmas they create in policy choices, the book examines the role of actors and the critical importance of partnerships to help readers comprehend the breadth of diversities and inter-linkages involved. The roles of the central and state governments, the parliament and the state assemblies, the civil society, UN agencies and district-level authorities are separately explored in depth. Sharing valuable insights, the book encourages policymakers, practitioners and scholars to move towards a sustainable and equitable economy, and supports them in their efforts.
