Download or read book The Mystic Mountain written by Dunstan Massey and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using imagery from fields as far apart as the Gospels, classic mythology, and modern astrophysics, in his book The Mystic Mountain, Dunstan Massey explores what some might call the chimerical hope of a risen life. Nevertheless, one is allowed to ask, will the Mourner, bereaved by the sudden death of Miriam, his wife, and his young son Jonathan, ever know consolation for their loss, or even see them again? In his desolation edging on despair, the Mourner is accompanied by three mysterious voices. He asks them at the sill of the grave, “Shall they rise, these dead?” As if in reply, the consolers lead him on a long visual search for the transcendent answer: will it be here, where death’s inevitability and finality have shattered his hopes? Or, could it be beyond death? The cry, the craving of the human heart, will never rest, save in a deathless state of infinite joy. We strive for it here, but find it not. Only the Infinite One who chose to die for love can give it when he calls us—so come as I call thee, my sister and brother and mother, unto me.

To make matters worse, her mom’s hasty booking lands them not at a spa, but an aging dude ranch called Far Away.

As they slowly uncover the true history of Pete, venture into the mountains, search haunted ghost towns, and are threatened by a treasure-hunter-social-media star, Becca discovers that treasure is in the eye of the beholder and the important things in life are always worth fighting for.

Book Synopsis Becoming a Mountain by : Stephen Alter
Download or read book Becoming a Mountain written by Stephen Alter and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-03-10 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hailed as a "wondrous book" by Gretel Ehrlich, and winner of the Kekoo Naoroji Book Award for Himalayan Literature—a journey of healing that becomes a pilgrimage for the soul. Stephen Alter was raised by American missionary parents in the hill station of Mussoorie, in the foothills of the Himalayas, where he and his wife, Ameeta, now live. Their idyllic existence was brutally interrupted when four armed intruders invaded their house and viciously attacked them, leaving them for dead. The violent assault and the trauma of almost dying left him questioning assumptions he had lived by since childhood. For the first time, he encountered the face of evil and the terror of the unknown. He felt like a foreigner in the land of his birth. This book is his account of a series of treks he took in the high Himalayas following his convalescence—to Bandar Punch (the monkey’s tail), Nanda Devi, the second highest mountain in India, and Mt. Kailash in Tibet. He set himself this goal to prove that he had healed mentally as well as physically and to re-knit his connection to his homeland. Undertaken out of sorrow, the treks become a moving soul journey, a way to rediscover mountains in his inner landscape. Weaving together observations of the natural world, Himalayan history, folklore and mythology, as well as encounters with other pilgrims along the way, Stephen Alter has given us a moving meditation on the solace of high places, and on the hidden meanings and enduring mystery of mountains.

Book Synopsis Blood Runs Cold on the Black Side of the Mountain by : Corinne F. Gerwe
Download or read book Blood Runs Cold on the Black Side of the Mountain written by Corinne F. Gerwe and published by Algora Publishing. This book was released on 2013 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Professional bear hunter and woodsman Bobby Burris was raised to hunt and poach on the famous Biltmore Estate lands and forest located adjacent to his family's homestead near Asheville, North Carolina. He was ruled by a tyrannical father who taught him to ignore the law and engaged him in an array of illegal activities from an early age, at which time he witnessed a notorious still-unsolved crime and murder. He was forced to participate in other crimes and retaliations during his adolescence under his father's direction. Rebelling against him, Bobby became a young renegade and formed his own small criminal organization in Asheville that extended beyond the region with links to the Italian and Mexican mafias and drug trafficking routes from Los Angeles to Philadelphia. His life from childhood into adulthood, under a Machiavellian authority, eventually led to his arrest and incarceration in a Federal prison where he by mere chance became a bodyguard for a mob boss of a major New York crime family. His road to perdition was interrupted by a vision that transformed him in the midst of this setting and began within him a process of rebelling once more against a life of crime that he'd been forced into since childhood. The story takes place against a backdrop of mountain wilderness and people with a long history of isolation, independence, and rebellion against authority. From a family of moonshine bootleggers, a legacy of crime developed from father to son that began with illegal poaching on the vast acreage of the magnificent Biltmore Estate and its forestlands, hunting parties with politically connected cronies from Asheville's "old boy"network, a series of hidden crimes, cruelties, and cover-ups that led to the monstrous formation of a young man with the brutalized heart of a stone cold killer. This story inflects the true crime genre with a psychological perspective, revealing unsolved mysteries, secret societies, bold adventure set within regional history, and family drama with a focus on the father/son relationship involving murder, sin and redemption. Bobby's journey from the black side of the mountain through a wilderness of transforming enlightenment is an exciting, intriguing, and inspiring story of physical and psychological survival. The book glows with a loving appreciation for the good that lies deep within some of the most hardened hearts, just as the setting, deep in the Appalachian Mountains, is shown bursting with images of spectacular beauty and the rich bounty of nature even while danger may lurk at every turn.

Book excerpt: The Shadow Sphinx's Riddle Solving the riddles of a shadow sphinx to stop it from casting the land into darkness. This story tells of an amazing journey full of mystery, hardship, and the strength of community. It's a touching story that kids will love and learn from, showing how important bravery, friendship, and knowledge are in getting through hard times. Summary: The land of Sunbeam used to be bright, but it became dark when a shadow sphinx cast a terrible spell that made the whole world dark forever. The only way to get out of this sadness was to figure out a set of difficult problems that the Sphinx had put together. During this very important time, three brave friends—Leo, Mia, and Toby—stepped up because they were determined to bring light back to their home country. Their plan to face the Sphinx and break its spell would test their bravery, social skills, and intellectual abilities. The three travelers ran into a number of problems along the way that pushed them to their limits. The Mystic Mountains gave them hard problems to solve, the River of Reflections showed them what they were really thinking, and the Whispering Woods let the wind whisper secrets to them. Every job was like a puzzle that had to be solved. Leo, Mia, and Toby learned the value of working together, the courage to face uncertainty, and the ability to see past what seems to be true. Their journey brought out hidden traits in each other and helped them understand each other and themselves better. It had elements of both inside and outside. The Labyrinth of Shadows, the Cave of Echoes, and the Garden of Whispers all served as reminders of how hard their job was and how mysterious their surroundings were. In the Valley of Mists and the Library of Lost Books, they learned from old stories that had been lost. This meant that they broke through the fog. At the Sphinx's Lair, where the adventure came to an end, Sunbeam's fate relied on how she solved the last puzzle. The sphinxes' job was complete when they finished their last task. The sun came up, marking the start of a new day for Sunbeam and its people. The story of Leo, Mia, and Toby's triumphant return was a beacon of hope and a reminder that good will always win over evil, that working together can get things done, and that real strength comes from having the guts to ask hard questions, the smarts to answer them, and the friendship to get you through the worst times. The people of Sunbeam are still moved by their story, which is about bravery, determination, and the strength of the human spirit. People have learned a lot from it and made a lot of friends. Chapter 1: The Spell of Darkness. In the lovely world of Sunbeam, where the sun's warm rays lit up everything with happiness and brightness, sudden change rushed across the sky. It wasn't like the calm night that comes after every day; this change was more like a thick, never-ending shadow that fell over the sky and covered the morning. It never got to the sky's orange and pink colors, which used to wake the birds up in the morning. Instead, a cold gloom remained, turning day into night so that not a single star could be seen. People from Sunbeam were used to living in a world full of light. All of a sudden, they were surrounded by a strange, cold darkness. People in the area talked about a mysterious being called the "shadow sphinx." This being was said to have such powerful skills that it could throw a dark shadow over the sun. This thing, which was hiding in a dark cave, had used magic so strong that light couldn't get through. It made Leo, Mia, and Toby feel excited. They were three friends who were both brave and interested. They knew that waiting for the sun to come out again wasn't going to be enough. People were set on being the ones to act because something had to be done. They got together and talked about the shadow sphinx and its mysteries. The soft light from a candle left a shadow on their cheeks. It was said that the sphinx liked puzzles and problems, and the only way to bring back Sunbeam's light was to break its spell. The friends knew that their journey would be full of secrets and problems, but the thought of their house staying dark was too much for them to bear. Leo, Mia, and Toby set out to find the shadow sphinx and face it with bravery and knowledge. They were determined to do this. They knew that the journey ahead would be hard and that the puzzles would test their minds and souls. But they also knew that the darkness would end eventually. They thought that if they worked together, the light would come back on. Their trip showed that friendship, hope, and the desire to learn could light up the world, even in the darkest times. It was more than just a quest to save Sunbeam. With the legend map in hand and the resolve to face whatever lay ahead, the three set out into the unknown, ready to face the darkness and show the light that lies beyond fear and doubt.
