Book Synopsis A Fire Runs through All Things by : Susan Murphy
Download or read book A Fire Runs through All Things written by Susan Murphy and published by Shambhala Publications. This book was released on 2023-11-28 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a time of climate emergency, Zen koans show us how crisis itself can reveal the regenerative openness of life, mind, and being. Zen koans are a tradition of holistic inquiry based on “encounter stories” from East Asia’s most radical Buddhist tradition. Turning this form of inquiry toward the climate crisis, Susan Murphy contends that koans can help us enter the mind of not-knowing, from which acceptance and possibility freely emerge. Koans reveal intimate, mythic, artful, playful, provocative, humorous, and fierce ways to engage the work of protecting and healing our world. The koans point firstly at ourselves—at the very nature of "self." Until we hold “self” as a live question rather than its own unquestioned answer, we’re stuck looking on from the “outside,” hoping to engineer change upon a problem called “climate crisis,” all the time oblivious to the fact that we’re swimming in a reality with no outside to it, an ocean of transformative energy. Do we dare relinquish our wish for absolute control and fearlessly surf the intensity of our feelings about the suffering earth? In addition to her use of dozens of traditional and new koans, Murphy illuminates the little-known Zen resonance with the oldest continuous body of indigenous wisdom on earth, summed up in the subtle Australian Aboriginal word Country. Murphy draws from her study and coteaching with Uncle Max (Dulumunmun) Harrison, a distinguished Yuin Elder, to show how this millennia-deep taproot of intelligence confirms the aliveness of the earth and the kinship of all beings.
Book Synopsis Running Through Shadows by : Tony Taouk
Download or read book Running Through Shadows written by Tony Taouk and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-07-11 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Running through Shadows is a book based on three fictional characters, who are nineteen years old and homeless. The three characters, Chris, Peter, and Rosa, live in the back of a van in a rural town and survive by stealing from the local members of the community and local shop owners. Their routine is abruptly interrupted after they steal money from the local church and are eventually caught. This incident causes Peter to reflect on his path in his life, and he begins to steer the three of them into a more productive direction. However, their lives take another dramatic turn, when after a scuffle with two other youths, it brings police involvement back into their lives again. This results in Chris and Peter finding out about Rosas and her familys suspicious past, which is soon followed by a kidnapping and desperation by the main characters to keep everyone safe.
Book Synopsis Running the Long Path by : Kenneth A. Posner
Download or read book Running the Long Path written by Kenneth A. Posner and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2016-09-30 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finalist for the 2016 Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award in the Sports category Have you ever considered running 350 miles in nine days? Kenneth A. Posner did just that when he completed a record-setting run along New York's Long Path, a 350-mile hiking trail that stretches from New York City to Albany. Running the Long Path's page-turning narrative combines the thrill and challenges of Posner's extreme endurance feat with the stunning natural beauty and deep historical significance of New York's Hudson Valley. A one-time casual runner, Posner shares his excitement of developing into a trail-runner and eventually an ultrarunner, as well as the pursuit of a "fastest known time"—a new dimension of extreme trail running, where some of the sport's fastest and most experienced athletes vie to set new speed records for important trails. Hikers, walkers, and runners will appreciate his detailed descriptions of planning, pacing, gear selection, nutrition, hydration, and navigation, which will help them prepare for their own adventures on the trails. Interspersed with the running adventure, Posner relates the interesting stories of the Long Path and the places it passes through, which include some of New York's most important parks and preserves and the distinctive mountains and forests they protect. Throughout the book, he channels the voices of famous New Yorkers associated with the Long Path—Walt Whitman, John Burroughs, Theodore Roosevelt, and Raymond Torrey—who express their appreciation of the natural beauty of the region. Running the Long Path is the story of what ordinary people can accomplish with a little determination and a lot of grit. Whether you walk or run, you will find inspiration in Posner's tale.

Book Synopsis Gravitational Waves by : Brian Clegg
Download or read book Gravitational Waves written by Brian Clegg and published by Icon Books. This book was released on 2018-02-08 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 14 September 2015, after 50 years of searching, gravitational waves were detected for the first time and astronomy changed for ever. Until then, investigation of the universe had depended on electromagnetic radiation: visible light, radio, X-rays and the rest. But gravitational waves – ripples in the fabric of space and time – are unrelenting, passing through barriers that stop light dead. At the two 4-kilometre long LIGO observatories in the US, scientists developed incredibly sensitive detectors, capable of spotting a movement 100 times smaller than the nucleus of an atom. In 2015 they spotted the ripples produced by two black holes spiralling into each other, setting spacetime quivering. This was the first time black holes had ever been directly detected – and it promises far more for the future of astronomy. Brian Clegg presents a compelling story of human technical endeavour and a new, powerful path to understand the workings of the universe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BEFORE THE RIPPER, THERE WAS THE PLAGUE MAKER England, 1870 A woman is murdered, her child taken. For residents of a small railway town, such a crime in their midst is as shocking as it is terrifying. Yet for local Police Constable John Tanner, the nightmare is only just beginning when he follows the trail to Whitechapel, home of the London Metropolitan Police Force’s legendary H Division. There he will meet Detective Sergeant Henry Lofthouse, a disillusioned officer of Scotland Yard’s reorganised Detective Branch. Confronted with murders unlike any yet seen, these two very different men must grapple with deception, mistrust and their own demons if they are to stop a relentless killer from fulfilling a horrifying ambition...

From the quiet bustle of a provincial town, to the dark underbelly of Victorian London, A Plague of Murder opens the door on a richly detailed world, igniting a saga that will lead to the blade of Jack the Ripper himself.

Book Synopsis Cows and Catastrophes: The Flights and Fancies of a Cornish Dairy Farmer by : Brindley Hosken
Download or read book Cows and Catastrophes: The Flights and Fancies of a Cornish Dairy Farmer written by Brindley Hosken and published by Fox Chapel Publishing. This book was released on 2016-10-05 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cows and Catastrophes includes tales of author Brindley Hosken's 40 years of farming on the beautiful Lizard Peninsula in Cornwall, where he has lived and worked for all his life. After 35 years of dairy farming, and in an increasingly challenging market, Brin made the difficult decision to sell his cows in 2010 and now contract rears dairy heifers.Some of the stories told are factual, some take a situation, turn it upside down and approach it from a completely different angle and others ask important questions such as "What if I'm a Celebrity was set on a farm?" and "What if a tractor could write a letter to a car?" Most are humorous; some are sad but they are all thought provoking. Including 32 specially commissioned illustrations by Rory Walker, this book will bring a wry smile to the faces of other farmers who will recognise situations that they too have been in. It will also give readers who are not involved in farming an idea about what happens down farm lanes and in the patchwork of fields that they pass on their way to work each day and to help them appreciate the tough job that farmers today face.

Book Synopsis Walking the Galloway Hills by : Ronald Turnbull
Download or read book Walking the Galloway Hills written by Ronald Turnbull and published by Cicerone Press. This book was released on 2019-07-15 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guide covers 34 day walks and one long-distance route in the wild and remote hills of Galloway. Although there are some shorter and easier routes, many of these hill walks are long and on rugged terrain, so are more suitable for experienced walkers. The walks cover the evocative areas of The Merrick, The Awful Hand, The Rhinns of Kells, the Minnigaff hills and Cairnsmore of Fleet, among others. The guide uses OS 1:50,000 maps with detailed route descriptions and inspirational photos accompanying each route. Key information such as distance, time, and ascent are given. A 'harshness' grade gives an indication of how rough the ground is expected to be, and suggestions of variants, shortcuts and ways to extend each walk are also given. Plenty of background information is given on the region's fascinating and important history. If you like your wild landscape really wild? If you like your lakes to have whooper swans in the middle and no ice-cream vans around the edge? If you like to have one foot on bare rock and the other one deep in a peat bog? If you like your granite with goats on? Then Galloway is the place to go.
