Book Description
It can feel soul crushing to have to get out of bed and face the same routine day after day —the same uninspiring thing. Every. Single. Day. You may find yourself burnt out, anxious, restless, and disillusioned by this life for which you once had aspired greatness and excitement. And yet, from the outside, your life may seem ideal. You have a good job, a loving family, and all the basic needs one could want. So, what’s the problem? Disconnection. We are so often detached from our core selves that we are unable to tell why we feel uncomfortable, sick, and dissatisfied with our lives. All we know is that something is off, something is wrong. Walking the Way of the Heart is a tool to help you reconnect with your true self. Underneath all of the conditioning and expectation and comparison-living you’ve been contending with is what your heart truly wants. The lessons and techniques within the pages of this book will help you go inside yourself and see the world through your heart’s perspective. Once you can mindfully walk the heart’s way, you will see the world differently. You may decide to make drastic changes in your life, but you may also realize that the life you have built is so much richer and more beautiful than you ever imagined. Either way, you will have uncovered the most important key in your life: your own amazing self. The book aims to help you: • Understand self-regulation to access intuitive knowing and compassion • Embrace self-love so you can see, feel, and be love for others • Learn ways to connect to the Divine through simple, mindful practices • Access joy in your life by walking the way of the heart • Realize that you have the power within to change your present and future reality • See the connection to all living beings • Hear the call to action to fulfill your soul's mission for the greater good of all The time to be authentically you is now. Doing so is crucial to humanity’s collective survival. In fact, this is how we do more than survive; this is how we thrive.

Walking Home with Baba
Author: Rohini Ralby
Publisher: Bancroft Press
ISBN: 1610880579
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 185
Book Description
This is an authoritative, uncompromising, altogether real guide to spiritual practice. Rohini Ralby spent eight years as head of security, appointments secretary, and personal assistant to the great Swami Muktananda, and in their many hours alone together, this world-renowned guru taught her, one on one, the essence of spiritual practice. In Walking Home with Baba, an expert guide to spiritual practice, Rohini draws on that experience and her subsequent study and work as a spiritual director to convey, in clear and concise terms, what spiritual practice truly is: walking home, and retracing our way back to God -- to Absolute Truth, Absolute Consciousness, and Absolute Bliss. Walking Home with Baba combines intimate stories about Ms Ralbys own experiences with Muktananda and others with chapters explaining the actual work of spiritual practice. She provides tools that she has developed for freeing ourselves from misery. One chapter is perhaps the most masterfully clear and concise companion to the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali available today. Readers will learn not only about Ms Ralbys experience of travelling the path and being the close disciple of a great Guru; they will gain practical guidance in walking that path themselves.

The Way Forward Is with a Broken Heart
Author: Alice Walker
Publisher: Ballantine Books
ISBN: 0307816966
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 211
Book Description
"These are the stories that came to me to be told after the close of a magical marriage to an extraordinary man that ended in a less-than-magical divorce. I found myself unmoored, unmated, ungrounded in a way that challenged everything I'd ever thought about human relationships. Situated squarely in that terrifying paradise called freedom, precipitously out on so many emotional limbs, it was as if I had been born; and in fact I was being reborn as the woman I was to become." So says Pulitzer Prize-winning author Alice Walker about her beautiful new book, in which "one of the best American writers today" (The Washington Post) gives us superb stories based on rich truths from her own experience. Imbued with Walker's wise philosophy and understanding of people, the spirit, sex and love, The Way Forward Is with a Broken Heart begins with a lyrical, autobiographical story of a marriage set in the violent and volatile Deep South during the early years of the civil rights movement. Walker goes on to imagine stories that grew out of the life following that marriage—a life, she writes, that was "marked by deep sea-changes and transitions." These provocative stories showcase Walker's hard-won knowledge of love of many kinds and of the relationships that shape our lives, as well as her infectious sense of humor and joy. Filled with wonder at the power of the life force and of the capacity of human beings to move through love and loss and healing to love again, The Way Forward Is with a Broken Heart is an enriching, passionate book by "a lavishly gifted writer" (The New York Times Book Review).

Waking the Dead

Publisher: Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 0718080890

Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
Waking the Dead—newly revised and updated for these trying times—reveals the secret of finding a full life, identifying the fierce battle over our hearts, and embracing all that God has in store. Jesus said, “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” That’s the offer of Christianity, from God himself. Jesus touched people, and they changed: the blind had sight, the lame walked, the deaf heard, the dead were raised. To be touched by God, in other words, is to be restored, to be made into all God means us to be. That is what Christianity promises to do—make us whole, set us free, bring us fully alive.

Desert Fathers and Mothers
Author: Christine Valters Paintner
Publisher: SkyLight Paths Publishing
ISBN: 1594733732
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 183
Book Description
Timeless and contemplative sayings from the earliest Christian sages of desert spirituality can be a companion on your own spiritual journey. The desert fathers and mothers were ordinary Christians living in solitude in the deserts of Egypt, Palestine, Syria and Arabia who chose to renounce the world in order to deliberately and individually follow God's call. They embraced lives of celibacy, labor, fasting, prayer and poverty, believing that denouncing material goods and practicing stoic self-discipline would lead to unity with the Divine. Their spiritual practice formed the basis of Western monasticism and greatly influenced both Western and Eastern Christianity. Their writings, first recorded in the fourth century, consist of spiritual advice, parables and anecdotes emphasizing the primacy of love and the purity of heart. Focusing on key themes of charity, fortitude, lust, patience, prayer and self-control, the Sayings influenced the rule of St. Benedict and have inspired centuries of opera, poetry and art. This probing and personal SkyLight Illuminations edition opens up their wisdom for readers with no previous knowledge of Western monasticism and early Christianity. It provides insightful yet unobtrusive commentary that describes historical background, explains the practice of asceticism and illustrates how you can use their wisdom to energize your spiritual quest.
