Book Synopsis The California Deserts by : Bruce M Pavlik
Download or read book The California Deserts written by Bruce M Pavlik and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2008-07-02 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This highly readable, spectacularly illustrated compendium is an ecological journey into a wondrous land of extremes. The California Deserts explores the remarkable diversity of life in this harsh yet fragile quarter of the Golden State. In a rich narrative, it illuminates how that diversity, created by drought and heat, has evolved with climate change since the Ice Ages. Along the way, we find there is much to learn from each desert species-- whether it is a cactus, pupfish, tortoise, or bighorn sheep--about adaptation to a warming, arid world. The book tells of human adaptation as well, and is underscored by a deep appreciation for the intimate knowledge acquired by native people during their 12,000-year desert experience. In this sense, the book is a journey of rediscovery, as it reflects on the ways that knowledge has been reclaimed and amplified by new discoveries. The book also takes the measure of the ecological condition of these deserts today, presenting issues of conservation, management, and restoration. With its many sidebars, photographs, and featured topics, The California Deserts provides a unique introduction to places of remarkable and often unexpected beauty.
Book Synopsis Amending the Christian Story by : Ron Rude
Download or read book Amending the Christian Story written by Ron Rude and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-10-11 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why has Christianity been around for a mere 2,000 years when Earth life has abounded for 3.8 billion years and even humans for nearly 300,000 years? What was God doing all this time? And what if humans are not the center of God’s universe? In Amending the Christian Story, Ron Rude asserts that current versions of the Christian faith are inadequate, and more than this, are fueling humanity’s assault on Earth’s biosphere. Through the window of nature’s natural sciences—especially astronomy, geology, evolutionary biology, paleoanthropology—Rude provides a fuller and more expansive view of God’s story of life and God’s story of Jesus. Can humans continue the lived-out assumption that we are separate from, superior to, the reason for, and the rulers of everything? With new perspectives into ancient stories and current narratives, Rude compels us to urgently shift Christianity’s claim and conduct in order to unite with God’s more sustainable and just world.

Book Synopsis The Gift of Presence by : Caroline Welch
Download or read book The Gift of Presence written by Caroline Welch and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2021-05-04 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A practical, user-friendly guide for women seeking focus and calm in the midst of life's storms. Overwhelmed by the demands of family, work, and multiple responsibilities, many women find themselves feeling scattered, and distracted. In this eye-opening book, co-founder and CEO of the Mindsight Institute, Caroline Welch takes readers on a mindfulness journey to help them de-stress and cultivate inner peace. According to Welch, you do not need countless hours sitting in silence to be more present in your life--the key is to practice mindfulness wherever you are and whenever you can. The Gift of Presence guides readers in developing four innate capacities we all possess that will allow us to become more resilient and centered in our lives--even when life is throwing all that it has at us: Presence: the ability to remain firmly in the present moment; to be fully aware of what's happening as it's happening. Purpose: the personal meaning that gets us going and gives direction to our lives. Pivoting: an openness to change that allows you to switch direction if that is what is needed. Pacing: the awareness that it is impossible to do everything we want or need to do all at once; the ability to take life one step at a time. This life-changing book reveals that you already hold in your hands the keys to a more harmonious life--you simply need to look within.

Download or read book Spiritual Power written by Mark Griffin and published by Hard Light Publishing. This book was released on 2008-07-01 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book comes from the 2008 Summer Retreat held in Joshua Tree, and includes the 3 days of talks given by Mark Griffin there, as well as three talks in the following weekly meetings that dealt with the aftermath and continuing effects of the Summer Retreat. It also includes the following Intensive given by Mark in July, when he continued the theme of coming into one's own power: "What Is Here Is Everywhere". The principle themes of this book deal not only with what is Spiritual Power, but also what it means to one's own sadhana - their spiritual evolution - to attain power, and be granted access to pure power. How do we come into our own power? What are the psychological issues we must face to do this? What is the importance of addressing the dark side of our psyche, and what stands in the way of our ability to do so? What is it like to meditate in the heart of one of the earth's power vortices? As Mark Griffin says: "Power is possibility. All possibilities are related to the presence or absence of power. There’s different kinds of power. There is the power of the City, which is social power, higher and lower classes, economic power, having a lot or having a little. That’s one kind of power. There’s also a kind of power that is just sheer force. Sometimes it’s quiescent, sometimes it’s wrathful and swift. We will be studying the unseen power of spirit. It is the true power. It is awesome. It is terrifying. And it is exact. When you get involved with power, everything that you bring to the situation is manifest. You come to understand who and what you truly are. This is why it’s a little bit dangerous, and why you want to have as much training as possible when you come in to more and more access with power. There are deep challenges to attracting, gaining, storing and integrating power. This is what spiritual training is about, and this is the basis of our work." This is available now as a 5.5" x 8.5" perfect-bound edition, 228 pages in length, ISBN 978-0-975902-09-7228
