ANCIENT WISDOM, MODERN WORLD (S0FTBACK) His Holiness the Dalai Lama
by: His Holiness The Dalai Lama
Only £9.99
What's so wonderful about the Dalai Lama's spirituality is that it completely transcends the boundaries of dogma and religious belief. He is not at all interested in persuading people to become Buddhist, but only in helping all of us - whatever our beliefs - to find greater happiness, inner peace and harmony. Neither is he interested in discussing theory. His efforts since childhood to live the spiritual life mean that what he says is based firmly on his own experience. Ancient Wisdom, Modern World is his most practical and empowering book to date. In it, he proposes a revolution; not a political, economic, or even religious revolution, but a spiritual revolution. This revolution starts with the individual but - because it acknowledges no boundaries of family, social group or nation - is capable of achieving change on a global scale.

COMMUNION WITH GOD Neale Donald Walsch
£10.99
`The highest authority lies within you. This is so because each of us has a direct connection to the Divine.'
¶This book talks about how to go Home. It discusses the experience of Oneness with the Divine, or what Neale Donald Walsch calls Communion with God. It describes a path to that experience, a pathway through our illusions, to the Ultimate Reality. It explains that, as human beings, we have created ten basic illusions or lenses through which to see ourselves and the world. The trouble is, we have forgotten that they are illusions, and so we are living within them, instead of through them. What are these illusions, and how do we remember the truth about who we really are? These questions are amply answered in the simple but powerful style we have come to expect from Neale Donald Walsch's three `Conversations with God' volumes (still available from Cygnus at £5.50 each).
ESOTERIC HEALING Alice Bailey
£13.20 £16.50
The books of Alice Bailey, written in cooperation with Tibetan Master Djwhal Khul between 1919-1949, constitute a continuation of the Ageless Wisdom - a body of esoteric teaching handed down from ancient times in a form which is always suitable to each period. In Esoteric Healing, Alice Bailey's unique and holistic approach to healing, the seven ray techniques of healing are described, the laws and rules of healing are enumerated and discussed, the requirements for healing are given in detail and basic causes of disease are shown. We learn, for example, that much disease can be karmic in origin, that certain diseases are inherent in the soil and in the substance of the planet and that many others are psychological, arising in the emotional or mental bodies. The fruits of the book are that it holds the practical physical, emotional, mental and spiritual keys to healing. It explains that health is closely related to the relation between higher self and lower self of the patient. Esoteric Healing is particularly useful for therapists and healing groups, especially those performing absent healing and rescue work.

HOME WITH GOD Neale Donald Walsch
£10.99
Neale Donald Walsch has excelled himself. In Home with God, the final instalment of his bestselling Conversations with God series (also available from Cygnus), he asks profound questions about the afterlife, rebirth, the purpose of creation, karma and how time and eternity work together. These perennial questions are ones all of us ask, and the answers Neale finds are deeply satisfying, and even, at times, revelatory. Through his personal dialogue with God, Neale explores the process by which all human beings must end their days here on Earth and enter the place they actually never left: God's Kingdom, to which all belong, regardless of their earthly deeds. This deeply spiritual work offers hope, comfort, and healing insights which, we think, will help tremendously in moving forward the transformation of consciousness humanity is going through right now.

JOYFUL WISDOM Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche
£10.99
Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche is a highly respected Buddhist scholar and teacher and is best known for his ability to address our human weaknesses with deeply personal understanding and compassion. Using Buddhist practices, Joyful Wisdom reveals ways in which we can overcome anxiety and troubling emotions, embrace change and find freedom. In this sequel to The Joy of Living, he explores the role of positive thinking and how to overcome anxiety in everyday life. Joyful Wisdom is divided into three parts, the way traditional Buddhist texts are organized: the first part offers an overview of the basic unease we feel, how it evolved, its true source. Part two describes the methods of meditation that transform our experiences into deeper insights. The third part explores the application of these methods to emotional, physical, and personal problems. Examples are drawn from Yongey Mingyur's personal experience, the stories of friends and teachers, and in particular the conversations with people he's met during the years he has spent teaching around the world.
