Book Description
"The contents of this volume have arisen from my own spiritual experience, and do not represent any kind of hypothesis or speculation, except where I expressly say that I am unable to make any definitive statement about a particular event or set of circumstances." --Judith von Halle Beginning with Steiner's seminal lecture on the nine layers of the Earth, the author directs her spiritual research toward Christ's descent into the Earth's depths following the Crucifixion, and discusses the relationship between that event and the modern spiritual student's path of training. As she points out in her foreword, the contents of this book may initially appear more abstract than other books in the series on "Approaches to Understanding the Christ Event," because they deal with processes we can accomplish only in a purely spiritual way, in spheres where no earthly perceptions can penetrate. According to von Halle, when pursuing the anthroposophic path of inner development, we cannot avoid, at a certain point on this path, experiencing what is traditionally called the "descent into hell." This journey finds its parallel in the mystery of the Representative of Humanity's descent into hell, through the Earth's nine layers. By entering the spiritual Earth organism, esoteric students encounter both the being of the Antichrist and the place where the substance of the Grail vessel originates. Von Halle shows how the Earth's interior is a mirror of the past, present, and future human soul states, explaining the causes of the three earthquakes that occurred during the night before the first Easter Sunday. Above all, she shows how we can rise to spiritual heights only to the degree that we also plumb the depths of the abyss.

Book Description
After the fall of the Republic of Vietnam to North Communists, hundreds of thousands of South Vietnamese officers were detained in the so-called re-education camps of which about 80 to 100 thousand men and women died of starvation, illness, executions, exhausted by hard labor... The author had endured nearly ten years in the camp. This book is to describe how the author and his comrades-in arms had gone through the torture, starvation while their families suffered discrimination, persecution, humiliation, and fear in the changing society. In this book, the readers will find the good vs the bad, the eagles vs the chickens. It also reveals how the prisoners could survive the hardship without giving up hope.

Book Description
Imagine being a nineteen-year-old young man in New York City in the late 1960s, revered by peers as a charismatic leader and simultaneously serving as the rock of your family. Imagine being that same young man, voluntarily enlisting in the Marines during an American era in which countless young men fear getting drafted into the armed forces and going off to war in a distant, largely unknown land. Now imagine landing in South Vietnam--roughly one year after graduating from high school--during the turbulent, bloody times of late 1967-early 1968 and being called upon to be a steadying influence amongst your brother Marines while trying like hell to survive amidst the maddening chaos of war, one second at a time. Finally, imagine serving as a leader amongst legions of young men whose mantra is LEAVE NO MAN BEHIND while you write letters to your older sister--your best friend--back home, who is counting on you to serve as the best man at her wedding in the summer of 1968. Imagine that this is all before you assume the mantle as the unquestioned leader of the next generation of your family. "A Saint's Letters from the Depths of Hell" is the compelling story of United States Marine Vincent (Vinnie) Benore "Saint" Santaniello, based on the dozens of letters that he wrote to his older sister and absolute best friend, Lilly Santaniello; accounts shared by both family friends and brother Marines in Vietnam; and the imagination of his oldest surviving nephew. It is also the touching story of a nineteen-year-old kid who loves his family tremendously and yearns to get back to the simple pleasures of life: calling his beloved sister silly names; likely marrying his high-school sweetheart, Roe; and resuming his role as the rock of the Santaniello family. This is a memoir of undying love and loyalty, as seen through the conflicting prisms of war and family. This book is an innovative love story, juxtaposed against a backdrop of typical teenaged hijinks that are repeatedly curtailed by the terrifying reality of a bloody, unforgiving war. It is a compelling story of a young leader who would lay down his life for the sake of his brother Marines while simultaneously striving to survive a merciless war and return home to his family. This touching memoir will leave you loving Vinnie, both as a brother Marine and baby brother, as you live vicariously through the love of his tender letters to Lilly. You will be taken on an unforgettable journey through the eyes of a young hero and you will experience the trepidation and anxiety of trying like hell to survive hell and make it back home, against all odds.

But even in this great land of new beginnings, she still struggles with issues of morality, religion, and prejudice. Beth soon learns, however, that some questions have no answers, and the biggest journey of all takes place within our own hearts.
