Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What makes travel special? Perhaps the chill realization that a polar bear's eyes are fixed on you. Maybe it is the chance meeting with a man who buries sharks in a beach, only to dig them up months later, not out of morbid curiosity, but for food. Perhaps it is the undulating wing-beat of a dark shell-less gastropod in the canal of a 17th Century French sea port, or the criminal history of a rusting ship with a tree growing from its hold.Encounters in a Kayak brings the reader along on the magical experiences that surround sea kayaking. It’s about the animals, people, and special places around the globe that have grabbed the attention of renowned kayaker and writer Nigel Foster. His irrepressible curiosity drives him to tease out the unexpected stories hidden behind his subjects. These nuggets from around the world are bound together by water and a centuries-old form of sea travel: kayak. The result is a book of broad appeal for those interested in kayaking, traveling, and adventure.
Download or read book Sacred Encounters written by Janet Colli and published by . This book was released on 2004-12-01 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sacred Encounters is the culmination of 13 years of research bringing together the psychology of close encounters, spiritual experience, and ultimately enlightenment. Already the current surge of "subtle realm" encounters has unveiled the hidden dimension that surrounds us the realm of angels and aliens. Yet few Westerners realize that the same "enlightened"gurus enshrined in ancient lineages communicate with otherworldly beings. Sacred Encounters reveals starling evidence establishing this connection within Sufi, Hindu and Tibetan Buddhist traditions. Dr. Janet Elizabeth Colli believes that those among us who sense the subtle realms herald a critical stage in human evolution. Subtle realm experiences are ushering in an era when close encounters, non-local (instantaneous) travel and communication will be unexceptional. Sacred Encounters prepares the modern world for our next evolutionary leap. Sacred Encounters presents psychological research and case studies, such as "Hayley," who demonstrates the transition from posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) to Interspecies Communicator. Trace her developmental process as she learns to transform her terror into love. Discover the pivotal role so-called aliens are playing in the transformation of human consciousness from those who are living it, firsthand. Praise for Sacred Encounters "A transfixing exploration of the human side of alien encounters. Entering into the storied lives of two life-long ´experiencers´ of alien contact, journeying from Dharamsala to the mists of Seattle, Dr. Colli discovers that the most important lesson for humankind comes not from the beyond but from within the heart; that compassion is the foundation for understanding even the most ´alien´ of experiences." Will Bueche, Communications & Media Director, Program for Extraordinary Experience Research (PEER), Founded by Harvard Professor of Psychiatry, John Mack, M.D. "Sacred Encounters is a remarkable and well-written study of alien encounters. Dr. Janet Colli, a major and well-published researcher, presents a gripping account of her investigations into alien phenomena. This book is a vivid reminder that what we don´t know about the universe far exceeds what we do know. Sacred Encounters is highly recommended reading for anyone interested in alien encounters or spiritual exploration." Jeffrey Long, M.D., Founder of Near Death Experience Research Foundation (www.nderf.org)
Book Synopsis Neighbors and Wise Men by : Tony Kriz
Download or read book Neighbors and Wise Men written by Tony Kriz and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2012-09-17 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hearing from God is extraordinary. But the circumstances He uses to reveal Himself may be more ordinary than we think. Neighbors and Wise Men introduces captivating dialogues and unexpected moments with God that go beyond the confines of a conventional religious system and offer the chance for powerful life transformation. Get to know Tony Kriz (known by many as "Tony the Beat Poet" in Donald Miller's best-selling book Blue Like Jazz) through his real-life conversations and experiences that prove that God can and will use anyone and anything— from Muslim lands to antireligious academics to post-Christian cultures—to make Himself known. Through his own prodigal-son backstory and return to faith, Tony presents biblical truth in a conversational, but bold light that offers readers the courage to open their eyes to the unlikely encounters that are all around us every day; chance run-ins that turn out to be anything but chance. Have we limited God's ability to speak in our world today? Have we relegated God's creative voice to the select persons who share our particular religious system? Kriz himself felt like he was falling out of faith until non-Christians encouraged him to "fall toward Christ."

Book Synopsis Sacred Sites and the Colonial Encounter by : Sandra E. Greene
Download or read book Sacred Sites and the Colonial Encounter written by Sandra E. Greene and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Greene gives the reader a vivid sense of the Anlo encounter with western thought and Christian beliefs... and the resulting erasures, transferences, adaptations, and alterations in their perceptions of place, space, and the body." --Emmanuel Akyeampong Sandra E. Greene reconstructs a vivid and convincing portrait of the human and physical environment of the 19th-century Anlo-Ewe people of Ghana and brings history and memory into contemporary context. Drawing on her extensive fieldwork, early European accounts, and missionary archives and publications, Greene shows how ideas from outside forced sacred and spiritual meanings associated with particular bodies of water, burial sites, sacred towns, and the human body itself to change in favor of more scientific and regulatory views. Anlo responses to these colonial ideas involved considerable resistance, and, over time, the Anlo began to attribute selective, varied, and often contradictory meanings to the body and the spaces they inhabited. Despite these multiple meanings, Greene shows that the Anlo were successful in forging a consensus on how to manage their identity, environment, and community.

Book Synopsis The Promise of a Sacred World by : Nagapriya
Download or read book The Promise of a Sacred World written by Nagapriya and published by Windhorse Publications. This book was released on 2022-08-25 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this pioneering book, in turns poetic and philosophical, Nagapriya shows how the insights into the existential condition offered by Shinran can transform our understanding of what Buddhist practice consists in, and what it means to awaken to our ultimate concern. Shinran (1173 – 1263) is one of the most important thinkers of Japanese Buddhist history, and founder of the Jōdo Shinshū Pure Land school. Nagapriya explores Shinran’s spirituality and teachings through close readings, confessional narrative, and thoughtful interpretation. This book is an invitation to reimagine Shinran’s religious universe, not for the sake of historical curiosity, but as an exercise that has the potential to remake us in the light of our ultimate concerns.
Book Synopsis Miraculous Encounters by : Bruce Edelstein
Download or read book Miraculous Encounters written by Bruce Edelstein and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2018 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jacopo Carucci, known as Pontormo (1494–1557), was the leading painter in mid sixteenth-century Florence and one of the most original and extraordinary Mannerist artists. His extremely personal style was much influenced by Michelangelo, though he also drew from northern art, especially the work of Albrecht Dürer. This catalogue brings together a small but important group of preparatory drawings and finished paintings that center on Pontormo’s great masterpiece, The Visitation, one of the most moving and mesmerizing works by the artist. The Visitation represents the intense moment of encounter between the Virgin Mary and her cousin Elizabeth, who reveal to each other that both are pregnant. The painting is presented—for the first time—along with its highly finished preparatory drawing, which is squared for transfer to the larger surface of the panel. The combination of rigorous research and gorgeous reproductions reveals the painter’s creative process as never before. Other acclaimed paintings, including Portrait of a Halberdier and Portrait of Carlo Neroni, will also be shown alongside their preparatory drawings. Readers will encounter Pontormo both as a religious painter and a painter of portraits, in this original and nuanced account of the celebrated artist.
