Book Synopsis Unwrapping Beloved’s Gift, Co-Creating Soul’s Song by : Isaura Barrera
Download or read book Unwrapping Beloved’s Gift, Co-Creating Soul’s Song written by Isaura Barrera and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2019-04-10 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “I think the best way you could describe this text is, as put it in the Introduction, ‘a meditative map.’ I know for certain that I did not grasp everything and also that I could return to it over the years and read it again and again, always finding something new, or something that had before remained unseen due to my own place in my own unique spiritual journey” (Lauren Sapala, writer, blogger, and coach). “One day, unexpected and unhoped for, the world we had thought irretrievably lost may be returned to us” (I. Zaleski 2006). It began with reading John O’Donohue’s Anam Cara. I remembered I had once known such a friend and reached out to reconnect. Love opened the door, hope kept it open, and faith gave me the courage to walk through. These words summarized my subsequent spiritual journey as I awakened to deep friendship with a human beloved as well as with Divine Beloved. This book has two purposes: to describe an inner spiritual journey inspired by deep friendship and to offer that description as a meditative map for others. Isaura Barrera identifies five way stations that trace the path carved out by the song of love, hope, and faith evoked by her renewed friendship. Each station is presented descriptively rather than prescriptively as an invitation to others on similar journeys. Reflections at each station are linked to scriptural passages, highlighting connections between deep friendship with a human beloved and deep friendship with Divine Beloved.

Download or read book The Beloveds written by Maureen Lindley and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-04-03 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An exploration of domestic derangement, as sinister as Daphne Du Maurier’s classic Rebecca, that plumbs the depths of sibling rivalry with wit and menace. Oh, to be a Beloved—one of those lucky people for whom nothing ever goes wrong. Everything falls into their laps without effort: happiness, beauty, good fortune, allure. Betty Stash is not a Beloved—but her little sister, the delightful Gloria, is. She’s the one with the golden curls and sunny disposition and captivating smile, the one whose best friend used to be Betty’s, the one whose husband should have been Betty’s. And then, to everyone’s surprise, Gloria inherits the family manse—a vast, gorgeous pile of ancient stone, imposing timbers, and lush gardens—that was never meant to be hers. Losing what Betty considers her rightful inheritance is the final indignity. As she single-mindedly pursues her plan to see the estate returned to her in all its glory, her determined and increasingly unhinged behavior—aided by poisonous mushrooms, talking walls, and a phantom dog—escalates to the point of no return. The Beloveds will have you wondering if there’s a length to which an envious sister won’t go.
Book Synopsis The Eternal Gift by : Ms Lauren McCall
Download or read book The Eternal Gift written by Ms Lauren McCall and published by . This book was released on 2013-03 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Designed to help people with pet loss, The Eternal Gift demystifies how animals experience their lives and deaths. As an internationally known animal communicator who has spoken with animals on the Other Side, Lauren McCall brings messages of joy and unconditional love from animals who have died. These messages will bring encouragement and reassurance to those loving, grieving souls left behind and enable them to move past their grief and into a place of acceptance. The best selling pet book in Japan for 14 months and translated into Japanese, Italian and Korean, this is a must read for anyone who seeks a better understanding of their animal companions and how they view their life, and for anyone who has experienced the loss of a cherished animal friend. Practical tips on how to cope with pet loss are offered, as well as a guided imagery the reader can use to make their on very personal connection with their deceased pet. From the very start, the book sets the stage for the joy and optimism expressed by the animals in the chapters that follow. Animals believe that the love connection between themselves and their human family members lives on after death, an everlasting and eternal gift. The author touches on questions that go through the minds of those who have experienced, or will experience, the loss of a beloved animal. "Is my pet all alone somewhere?" "Is my animal going to heaven?" "Is there an afterlife for animals?" "Is she afraid?" The book also puts into perspective issues that people commonly express about having kept their animal alive too long, or released them too soon. These issues and many more will be answered directly through the use of conversations with animals who have passed on. Though commentary is woven throughout the book, the author allows the words of the animals to clearly and eloquently express their experiences about life, the death process, the other side, and reincarnation. Though The Eternal Gift is by nature a spiritual book, the author points out to the reader that ..".this book is not based on any particular religious belief, but rather the point of view of our animal friends." This is much more than a book about grief and loss. With its 'straight from the horse's mouth' perspective, The Eternal Gift takes the reader on a wonderful journey led by the author, and by animals who have shared loving lives with their people and want to reassure them that there is life beyond death and that the eternal cycle of life, death and reincarnation is one that they are comfortable with.

Book Synopsis Spiritual Gifts, the Beloved Community, and Covenant by : Emily Provance
Download or read book Spiritual Gifts, the Beloved Community, and Covenant written by Emily Provance and published by . This book was released on 2020-02 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God speaks to all people and gives us all spiritual gifts-and yet these gifts are not all the same. We are organizers, pray-ers, workers, carers, innovators, provocateurs, and healers. Why? Because we're made to fit together like puzzle pieces, as we name, affirm, and nurture spiritual gifts and ministries. In the author's view, this fitting together is at the heart of what it means to be a covenant people, a people given to the care of one another and charged with building the kingdom of God on Earth. It's easy to settle for less than covenant; it's scary to stretch for the wholeness of God's promise. We, collectively, face a choice of who to be. A version of this pamphlet was given as the 2019 Weed Lecture at Beacon Hill Friends House in Boston. Discussion questions included.
Book Synopsis The Specular Moment by : David E. Wellbery
Download or read book The Specular Moment written by David E. Wellbery and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No study of Goethe's early lyric poetry has been published in English in the last fifty years. But the reading of this poetry the author presents is not intended merely to introduce an English readership to a major body of work; rather, the book delineates for the first time in any language an account of the symbolic network or organizing myth that underlies Goethe's individual poems. This marks a decisive break with the previous research on Goethe, which has tended to view his poetry as the expression of occasional experiences. The author shows, on the contrary, that Goethe's lyric work circles around a core set of problems and figures, that it evinces a systematic coherence unperceived until now.

Book Synopsis Concerning the Book that is the Body of the Beloved by : Gregory Orr
Download or read book Concerning the Book that is the Body of the Beloved written by Gregory Orr and published by Copper Canyon Press. This book was released on 2012-12-18 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The heart of Orr’s poetry, now as ever, is the enigmatic image . . . mystical, carnal, reflective, wry.”—San Francisco Review This book-length sequence of ecstatic, visionary lyrics recalls Rumi in its search for the beloved and its passionate belief in the healing qualities of art and beauty. Concerning the Book that is the Body of the Beloved is an incantatory celebration of the “Book,” an imaginary and self-gathering anthology of all the lyrics—both poems and songs—ever written. Each poem highlights a distinct aspect of the human condition, and together the poems explore love, loss, restoration, the beauty of the world, the beauty of the beloved, and the mystery of poetry. The purpose and power of the Book is to help us live by reconnecting us to the world and to our emotional lives. I put the beloved In a wooden coffin. The fire ate his body; The flames devoured her. I put the beloved In a poem or song. Tucked it between Two pages of the Book. How bright the flames. All of me burning, All of me on fire And still whole. There is nothing quite like this book—an “active anthology” in the best sense—where individuals find the poems and songs that will sustain them. Or the poems find them. Gregory Orr is the author of eight books of poetry, four volumes of criticism, and a memoir. He has received numerous awards for his work, most recently the Academy Award in Literature from the American Academy of Arts and Letters. Orr has taught at the University of Virginia since 1975 and was, for many years, the poetry editor of The Virginia Quarterly Review. He lives with his family in Charlottesville, Virginia.

Book Synopsis Gender, Sexuality, and Material Objects in English Renaissance Verse by : Pamela S. Hammons
Download or read book Gender, Sexuality, and Material Objects in English Renaissance Verse written by Pamela S. Hammons and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An important contribution to recent critical discussions about gender, sexuality, and material culture in Renaissance England, this study analyzes female- and male-authored lyrics to illuminate how gender and sexuality inflected sixteenth- and seventeenth-century poets' conceptualization of relations among people and things, human and non-human subjects and objects. Pamela S. Hammons examines lyrics from both manuscript and print collections”including the verse of authors ranging from Robert Herrick, John Donne, and Ben Jonson to Margaret Cavendish, Lucy Hutchinson, and Aemilia Lanyer”and situates them in relation to legal theories, autobiographies, biographies, plays, and epics. Her approach fills a crucial gap in the conversation, which has focused upon drama and male-authored works, by foregrounding the significance of the lyric and women's writing. Hammons exposes the poetic strategies sixteenth- and seventeenth-century English women used to assert themselves as subjects of property and economic agents”in relation to material items ranging from personal property to real estate”despite the dominant patriarchal ideology insisting they were ideally temporary, passive vehicles for men's wealth. The study details how women imagined their multiple, complex interactions with the material world:the author shows that how a woman poet represents herself in relation to material objects is a flexible fiction she can mobilize for diverse purposes. Because this book analyzes men's and women's poems together, it isolates important gendered differences in how the poets envision human subjects' use, control, possession, and ownership of things and the influences, effects, and power of things over humans. It also adds to the increasing evidence for the pervasiveness of patriarchal anxieties associated with female economic agency in a culture in which women were often treated as objects.
Book Synopsis Sustaining Heaven on Earth by : Isaura Barrera
Download or read book Sustaining Heaven on Earth written by Isaura Barrera and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2021-08-11 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heaven on earth is a reality that defies description and even belief at times. Yet all who have fallen in love, felt deep wonder, or witnessed what could only be classified as a miracle can attest to its presence. Unfortunately, that presence is all too often only fleeting. What if it didn’t have to be so? What if it was possible to sustain the experience of heaven on earth? This book suggests four keys to doing so, each forged by and for a love that challenged the author to remain awake to the presence of heaven on earth that love had awakened.
Book Synopsis Toni Morrison's Fiction by : David L. Middleton
Download or read book Toni Morrison's Fiction written by David L. Middleton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-01-28 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of contemporary criticism explores her concern with racial and gender issues and analyzes her in relation to other major modern authors, her philosophical and religious speculations, and her preoccupation with the process of fiction-making. These classics provide a broad look at critical argument about Toni Morrison's meanings and significance during the past 10 years. From the formative effects of learning one's Otherness as a result of majority perception, to the apocalyptic implications of racial memory, to the moral and psychologically constructive act of storytelling, to the structural function served by improvisational jazz music, to the imagery associated with both flight and naming, to the uniquely female experience of community-major issues raised by Morrison's body of work are explicated here.
