A new threat has risen. For years, peace has reigned within the boundaries of the empire. Monks, gifted with extraordinary powers, wander the land, keeping order by any means necessary. Their gifts make them invincible, or so most believe. A lone warrior disagrees. Guided by a shadowy organization, Fang seeks to break the monasteries. Once left for dead by powerful monks, revenge has driven him to unimaginable strength. Only one obstacle stands in his way. His name is Lei, and he is no hero. Exiled by the monasteries for an unforgivable crime, he’s more comfortable with a drink in his hand than a sword. But he’s about to be thrust into a fight he had no part in starting. As destiny hurtles the two men into inevitable conflict, the fate of the empire hangs in the balance.
Yoga classes and Zen meditation, New-Age retreats and nature mysticism—all are part of an ongoing religious experimentation that has surprisingly deep roots in American history. Tracing out the country’s Transcendentalist and cosmopolitan religious impulses over the last two centuries, Restless Souls explores America’s abiding romance with spirituality as religion’s better half. Now in its second edition, including a new preface, Leigh Eric Schmidt's fascinating book provides a rich account of how this open-road spirituality developed in American culture in the first place as well as a sweeping survey of the liberal religious movements that touted it and ensured its continued vitality.
WHAT IS THE PATTERN? This book shares my experiences as a soul traveler, healer, and energy specialist. It teaches how to achieve spiritual freedom through a unique expression of consciousness. I discovered this insight when my consciousness left my body during a deep meditation. Focusing my attention, I found myself in a limitless field of clear, sparkling, blue-and-white lines that intersected. These energy lines formed a grid, pulsating with starry lights, the countless manifestations of consciousness striving for greater self-awareness. What I experienced that day—what I call the “Pattern”—informed the rest of my life. Striving to know my soul’s origin and destination, I continue to merge with the Pattern to experience the Creator’s intent: the uplift of all forms of consciousness. The Pattern points to a pathway for you to experience a greater knowledge of Spirit’s ultimate design. * “This is a story of revelation and action, of the journey undertaken on the path to conscious living in both the physical and nonphysical worlds. It is not an easy path but made smoother by the insights that Kevin Jeffers brings to the subject. His stories are compelling. His prose helps illuminate what is essentially ineffable. Kevin brings a new lens on the two most fundamental inquiries of our time, the nature of Spiritual revelation and uplift of consciousness.” — DR. SCOTT TAYLOR Former President & Executive Director of the Monroe Institute

2019 Best Book Awards, Finalist: Religion--Christian Inspirational If you've already figured out your life and feel totally complete, then this book may not be for you. But if you are like the rest of us, every day presents a mountain of to-do items, jobs to go to, errands to run, projects to complete, meals to cook, children to raise... You forge ahead and get it done, but you know that things aren't as they should be. Even when you check every item off your daily list, you still feel as though something meaningful and essential is missing from the very center of your life. Spiritual director and writer Becky Eldredge has felt that same longing, and she knows what people are missing--a relationship with God through prayer. In Busy Lives & Restless Souls, Eldredge interprets principles of Ignatian spirituality in a fresh way to equip us with prayer tools that are accessible and practical within the relentless realities of our daily routines. Just as important, she shows us how we can bring our relationship with God to life by becoming what St. Ignatius called "contemplatives in action." For all who sense that there is a missing peace in their lives, Busy Lives &Restless Souls will help them find it--right where they are.
He sought peace, but found a new war. Tomas' dream has never been closer to reality. He's exploring uncharted territory at the very edges of the frontier, a place where he can settle and finally find the peace which has proven so elusive. Unfortunately, they aren't as alone as Tomas believes. The mountain is crawling with mysterious creatures who behave like none he has come across before. When Tomas comes across a destroyed campsite, he's pulled into a battle that isn't his own. There's a malicious presence on this mountain, and it doesn't like humans. Tomas' journey high into the mountains and deep under the earth will unearth secrets that should have remained buried forever.
After over 25 years of working with people, and attempting to help them, as a psychotherapist, trainer, and teacher, I have not only walked through the joys and struggles of my own life experiences, and those of family and friends, but I have had the benefits and privilege of learning and living vicariously, while listening to untold hours with literally thousands of clients during their own struggling and searching. I have been encouraged by and privileged to watch the healing, growth, and transcendence from life's struggles of thousands of people, and I have felt pain and sadness in witnessing the deterioration, resistance and self-destruction of countless others. I have come to believe that the primary determining factor of whether one experiences transcendence or deterioration is a determined willingness to go through the struggles, and to develop an attitude: "...that looks courageously into the eye of the storm, and says assuredly: 'You will not break me...'" These poems are captured moments of my own experiences, and reflections on the journeys of others, as we have separately and together enjoyed the sunrises and sunsets, while sometimes weathering the storms in between. May these poems help you better understand yourself and your fellow travelers, and no matter how difficult or deep your own abyss of darkness, may you always find Hope! THE RHYTHM OF LIFE Today could not have been Without yesterday's haunting wind, Blowing by and changing my life, Stirring up realities and other sundry strife. The happenings of this hour Would rightfully have no power, Without the joys and pains of past, Shaping and creating me at last. Had even one conversation been altered, Or one person or event faltered, This moment in which I now breathe Would not now be, as is, conceived. There is a Great Choreographer, somewhere, someplace, Who orchestrates my moves and your every pace, Matching our steps in infinite, perfect time; Then, this dance, once confusing starts to rhyme...
For readers of Roberto Bolaño's Savage Detectives and Muriel Spark's Loitering with Intent, this "sublime" and "delightfully unhinged" metaphysical mystery disguised as a picaresque romp follows one poet's spectacular fall from grace to ask a vital question: Is everyone a plagiarist? (Nicolette Polek, author of Imaginary Museums). A scandal has shaken the literary world. As the unnamed narrator of Dead Souls discovers at a cultural festival in central London, the offender is Solomon Wiese, a poet accused of plagiarism. Later that same evening, at a bar near Waterloo Bridge, our narrator encounters the poet in person, and listens to the story of Wiese's rise and fall, a story that takes the entire night—and the remainder of the novel—to tell. Wiese reveals his unconventional views on poetry, childhood encounters with "nothingness," a conspiracy involving the manipulation of documents in the public domain, an identity crisis, a retreat to the country, a meeting with an ex-serviceman with an unexpected offer, the death of an old poet, a love affair with a woman carrying a signpost, an entanglement with a secretive poetry cult, and plans for a triumphant return to the capital, through the theft of poems, illegal war profits, and faked social media accounts—plans in which our narrator discovers he is obscurely implicated. Dead Souls is a metaphysical mystery brilliantly encased in a picaresque romp, a novel that asks a vital question for anyone who makes or engages with art: Is everyone a plagiarist?
