Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The best book on Bali for the serious visitor…Has the freshness of personal experience."--Dr. Hildred Geertz, author of Kinship in Bali and Professor of Anthropology at Princeton University In Bali, what you see--sekala--is a colorful world of ceremony, ritual, dance, and drama. What you don't see what is occult--niskala--is the doctrine underlying the pageants, the code underlying the rites, and the magic underlying the dance. In this book, author Fred Eiseman explores both tangibles and intangibles in the realm of Balinese religion, ritual, and performing arts. The essays collected here topics ranging from Hindu mythology to modern gamelan music. Eiseman's approach is that of a dedicated reporter in love with his subject--he has the knowledge and patience to explain the near-infinite permutations of the Balinese calendar, and yet he is still moved by the majesty of the great Eka Dasa Rudra ceremony. The author's 28 years experience on the island shows and this book rewards close reading--even by the most seasoned students of Balinese culture.

Book excerpt: If I can inspire more people to be better human beings, to reach more goals, to treasure their loved ones more, then I will have achieved something real and powerful and positive. And maybe that's why I survived. - Phil Britten *** Phil Britten, a 22-year-old captain of the Kingsley Football Club and an Australian Football League hopeful, was on holiday in Bali with his teammates when terrorists bombed the Sari Club on October 12, 2002. Although he escaped, Phil's injuries were life-threatening, with burns to 60% of his body. Grateful to be alive, Phil began tough physical rehabilitation and, through sheer determination, returned to football just six months later. But, the battle was far from over. Fighting depression and the obstacles of his injuries, Phil entered a dark period. Now, ten years on, he is a professional martial artist, successful business owner, and married with two young sons. Told in his own words in this memoir, with contributions from his mother, his rescuers, and his burns physician, Phil's journey of recovery reveals an extraordinary attitude and a life worth living.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today man lives quite well. He takes full care of the cleanliness of his body, everyday he bathes, wears clean clothes, keeps his surroundings clean. But what about the mind? In this whole sequence, we are forgetting the mind. Wouldn't it be dirty? If you look into someone's mind, you will see more dirt there than a dirty drain. This book envisions a mind that is a storehouse of unnecessary and dirty thoughts. This mind is disturbed by its own thoughts. It wanders every day in search of happiness in this world, but even after many efforts, it does not get that happiness. Because it doesn't know anything about happiness, what is it? It has been misguided by our social teachers. In this book you will see how the society is spreading drugs among the youth? And how can you keep yourself away from it? This is the first part of 'Purity of Mind' which is the introductory journey of that path.

Download or read book In the Highest Degree Tragic written by Donald M. Kehn and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2017-08-01 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Highest Degree Tragic tells the heroic story of the U.S. Asiatic Fleet’s sacrifice defending the Dutch East Indies from the Japanese in the first three months of the Pacific War. Donald M. Kehn Jr.’s comprehensive narrative history of the operations involving multiple ships and thousands of men dramatically depicts the chaotic nature of these battles. His research has uncovered evidence of communications failures, vessels sinking hundreds of miles from where they had been reported lost, and entire complements of men simply disappearing off the face of the earth. Kehn notes that much of the fleet went down with guns blazing and flag flying, highlighting, where many others have failed to do so, the political and strategic reasons for the fleet’s deployment to the region in the first place. In the Highest Degree Tragic rectifies the historical record, showcasing how brave yet all-too-human sailors and officers carried out their harrowing tasks. Containing rare first-person accounts and anecdotes, from the highest command echelons down to the lowest enlisted personnel, Kehn’s book is the most comprehensive and exhaustive study to date of this important part of American involvement in World War II.

Download or read book History of Bali written by Kelly Mass and published by Efalon Acies. This book was released on with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bali's rich historical narrative stretches from the Paleolithic era to the contemporary era, characterized by the dynamic movement of peoples and cultures across Asia. The arrival of Europeans in the 16th century ushered in an era of Western influence, fundamentally shaping Bali's trajectory. Despite enduring a challenging colonial period under Dutch rule, Bali emerged as a beacon for the preservation of traditional culture, evolving into a premier tourist destination renowned for its cultural authenticity. Geologically, Bali, much like other islands in the Indonesian archipelago, owes its formation to the intricate tectonic dance between the Indo-Australian and Eurasian plates. The subduction of the Indo-Australian plate beneath the Eurasian plate uplifted the ancient ocean floor, composed of fossilized marine remnants and coral reefs, to create the island we know today. Remnants of this ancient ocean floor, notably Tertiary limestone, are still visible in landmarks such as the imposing limestone cliffs of Uluwatu in the Bukit peninsula and Prapat Agung in the island's northwest. The dynamic tectonic activity, stemming from the collision of these plates, has birthed a chain of volcanoes spanning the northern expanse of Bali, with the landscape evolving from west to east. Mount Agung, the island's tallest stratovolcano at 3,142 meters (10,308 ft), stands as a prominent testament to this geological dynamism, remaining active to this day.

Download or read book Operation Goodtime and the Battle of the Treasury Islands, 1943 written by Reg Newell and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2012-10-05 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A force of New Zealanders and Americans invaded the Treasury Islands in the South Pacific on October 27, 1943, retaking them from their Japanese occupiers. Codenamed Operation Goodtime, the action marked the first time New Zealand forces took part in an opposed landing since Gallipoli in 1915. In an unusual allocation of troops in the American-dominated theater, New Zealand provided the fighting men and America the air, naval, and logistical support. Confronting extreme risks against a determined Japanese foe, the Allies nevertheless succeeded with relatively few casualties. Because of the need for operational security, Operation Goodtime received little publicity and has been relegated to a footnote in the history of the war in the Pacific. This is the first complete account of the Allied seizure of the Treasury Islands.

Book excerpt: NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF 2020 BY NPR, THE FINANCIAL TIMES, AND GQ The hidden story of the wanton slaughter -- in Indonesia, Latin America, and around the world -- backed by the United States. In 1965, the U.S. government helped the Indonesian military kill approximately one million innocent civilians. This was one of the most important turning points of the twentieth century, eliminating the largest communist party outside China and the Soviet Union and inspiring copycat terror programs in faraway countries like Brazil and Chile. But these events remain widely overlooked, precisely because the CIA's secret interventions were so successful. In this bold and comprehensive new history, Vincent Bevins builds on his incisive reporting for the Washington Post, using recently declassified documents, archival research and eye-witness testimony collected across twelve countries to reveal a shocking legacy that spans the globe. For decades, it's been believed that parts of the developing world passed peacefully into the U.S.-led capitalist system. The Jakarta Method demonstrates that the brutal extermination of unarmed leftists was a fundamental part of Washington's final triumph in the Cold War.
