Book Description
This book sets out to do something never attempted before: to teach the language of the fearsome dragons. Is this serious? Yes it is. This language, called Srínawésin, which has a depth and complexity of any human language and is as rich as the fabled dragons themselves. The author has written this primer based on notes from a man who claimed to get his information from several actual dragons; Bloody Face, Moonchild, Ash Tongue, Frost Song, Black Honey, Owl Claw and others. Do these notes, found in the linguistics department of NYU, actually describe a real language that real dragons speak? Even the author does not know. But this book, arranged in a matter of thirty lessons that build from basic concepts and sounds to more and more complex sentences and thoughts, requires no previous knowledge or ability of foreign languages. All a reader needs is the desire to learn and the open mindedness to believe, even for a moment, the tongue of these fascinating creatures. Each chapter has exercises to test the basic grammatical concepts dealt therein as well as the lore, culture, history and worldview of dragons. Young or old, language-savvy or not, this book is written to all those that think, feel and believe that the powerful beasts that live in every corner of the world and in every mythology, might have a culture and language that they are proud of and which is not seen through the lens of human thoughts and biases. They have an oral literature as deep as any human culture, with a language, songs, stories, poems, riddles and history that is as ancient as it is alien. This book is the first of a two-part series covering basic and advanced concepts as well as a dictionary and thesaurus of Srínawésin, the Reader, Dictionary and Thesaurus . You are only Thirty lessons away from learning the Dragon Tongue!

Book Description
“Riding the Dragon gives the reader the chance to look for the lessons that are often hidden in our sorrows.”—Goodreads reviewer Twenty years and 70,000 copies after it was first released, Riding the Dragon—by popular author, speaker, and psychologist Robert J. Wicks—continues to help thousands each year to confront the “dragons” of stress, discouragement, burnout, and unexpected change that everyone struggles with in their daily lives. Instead of pretending these difficulties don’t exist or trying to remove them entirely, Wicks offers ten lessons to help us face them, overcome them, and grow from them. These simple yet profound lessons draw on the wisdom of Eastern and Western spiritual traditions as well as Wicks’s experience as a psychologist, and include pairing clarity with kindness, seeking perspective daily, and building a barrier of simplicity. Riding the Dragon is a concise, compassionate, and knowledgeable guide for anyone experiencing or supporting someone facing personal or professional challenges. This twentieth anniversary edition features a new preface from the author, highlighting how Riding the Dragon is, perhaps now more than ever, an indispensable spiritual and psychological companion for all of us who are yearning for our lives to be transformed.
