Nøglen til Det Gyldne Rige er dele af Lemuriens gemte og glemte visdom som Peru, Andesfolket og Inkariget har vogtet over. En visdom, der oprindeligt stammer fra det Lyranske Løvefolk fra før Lemuriens tid.Visdommen genåbner det, som Løvefolket kalder Den Lysende Sti til dit helligste sted - ind til kærligheden og livsglæden.Igennem forfatterens 5 rejser til Peru og Andesbjergene overleveres visdommen via kanaliserede indsigter, klardrømme og synkroniciteter som nøglerne til genåbning af Det Gyldne Rige i os alle.En bog der er skrevet i en uhøjtidelig tone og en kærlig ånd, som appellerer til at lade sig guide af universet og ens højere selv til at forfølge sine drømme, og samtidigt deltage i jordens spirituelle opvågning i samarbejde med andre lysbærere.

Med Tilsyn i folkekirken foreligger 13 artikler, der indkredser tilsynet og tilsynsopgaven i Den Danske Folkekirke ud fra såvel en historisk som en juridisk, teologisk og organisationsteoretisk synsvinkel.Tilsyn er et fundamentalt begreb i offentlig forvaltning. Til­synet skal ikke blot sikre, at opgaver løses som aftalt, og at love, regler, økonomiske rammer og procedurer i øvrigt overholdes. I dag er tilsynets opgave også at medvirke til, at organi­sationer udvikles, så de fastholder deres legitimitet og orientering mod de opgaver, de skal løse i og for samfundet, nu og i fremtiden.Også i Den Danske Folkekirke er tilsyn et centralt begreb. Tilsynet er grundlæggende knyttet til de folkekirkelige embeder og til folkekirkens bekendelsesgrundlag og dermed også til spørgsmålet om fortolkning af de vilkår, der gælder for folkekirken og dens lære i enhver tids aktuelle situation. Endelig er tilsynet i omfattende forstand knyttet til kontrol med al den forvaltning og ledelse, som finder sted i folkekirken som offentlig organisation.Selvom tilsynsbegrebet således er centralt, gammelt og vel­etableret i folkekirken, er det kun sjældent udfoldet konkret, indholdsmæssigt. Der er ganske vist et omfattende grundlag i form af love, cirkulærer og bekendtgørelser, men den praktiske udfoldelse af, hvordan, hvornår og efter hvilke retningslinjer og værdier, tilsynet skal udfoldes i forhold til de mange folkekirkelige aktører, er kun sparsomt beskrevet.Med Tilsyn i folkekirken foreligger 13 artikler, der indkredser tilsynet og tilsynsopgaven i Den Danske Folkekirke ud fra såvel en historisk som en juridisk, teologisk og organisationsteoretisk synsvinkel. Tilsynet beskrives ud fra dets historiske kontekst, men fokus for forfatterne er tilsynets nutidige og fremtidige betydning og muligheder. Der er både teoretiske og praktiske tilgange i bidragene, og i adskillige tilfælde er der lagt op til en debat, som er ganske væsentlig: Hvordan kan tilsynet i folkekirken i dag bidrage til, at opgaver løses, så love, regler, rammer og procedurer overholdes, men også medvirke til, at folkekirken orienterer sig mod fremtiden?Omtale"Nyttig læsning for både læg og lærd om tilsyn i folkekirken (...) Med det fokus der er på arbejdsmiljøproblemer og ledelse i folkekirken er det oplagt at se på tilsynet under mange forskellige vinkler, og bogen vil gøre de fleste menighedsråd (præster inklusive) klogere på de retslige forhold både på sogne- og provstiniveau."- Grundtvigsk Tidende

"Tara, the Buddhist goddess of compassion, can manifest within all of us.

They demonstrate real-world compassion and generosity, as well as the capacity to transform anger into wisdom, harness joy to overcome adversity, and protect others from fear and danger. Their stories will inspire you to bring these aspects of Tara into the world in creative and socially conscious ways for the benefit of all"--

"Discover the peace and joy that come when you dwell in the active presence of God, as the beloved author of Joni weaves contemporary insights with the timeless wisdom of seventeenth-century monk Brother Lawrence"--

Do you resonate with aspects of Christianity, but struggle with the coherence of its claims? After having a mystical experience that upended her traditional evangelical beliefs, Heather Hamilton reluctantly found herself in this place. Her seeking led to the most unexpected insights. Returning to Eden is a field guide for the journey that every true spiritual seeker ultimately takes. The highest truths that set us free are hidden in places that most people are not looking. Returning to Eden reexamines the Bible stories of childhood and opens them up as symbolic maps into the inner world. Stories like Jonah and the Whale, the Parting of the Red Sea, Noah's Ark, and the Virgin Birth are illuminated with penetrating depth and intellectual integrity. Faith is no longer a white-knuckled grip on implausible beliefs, but a relaxation into a deep inner knowing. You may be surprised to find yourself reinvigorated and enlightened by stories you thought you knew inside and out. Returning to Eden has the potential to cultivate a renaissance of wonder and curiosity for anyone from the most seasoned Christians to the most committed atheists, and everyone in between.

"ALL sacred writings contain an outer and an inner meaning. Behind the literal words lies another range of meaning, another form of knowledge. According to an old¿age tradition, Man once was in touch with this inner knowledge and inner meaning. There are many stories in the Old Testament which convey another knowledge, a meaning quite different from the literal sense of the words. The story of the Ark, the story of Pharaoh's butler and baker, the story of the Tower of Babel, the story of Jacob and Esau and the mess of pottage, and many others, contain an inner psychological meaning far removed from their literal level of meaning. And in the Gospels the parable is used in a similar way." -from the Preface. The New Man is an effort to elaborate the Gospels in light of this inner truth, in order to guide man along the necessary journey he must undertake to avoid violence and self-destruction.

The Kolbrin incorporates a body of enlightened teachings that are a treasure of the centuries, a light on the path of Truth, and as relevant to the world today as they were in the past. The majority of what is presented here was actually salvaged from a pile of discarded manuscripts that had been partially burned and weathered.The Kolbrin is concerned with goodness and virtue, courage and mortality, spiritual ideals and human aspirations. It seeks to enshrine love in a place beyond the clamor and craving of mortal flesh, which may be enough to condemn it. The Masters can only record the results of their own searching in the Kolbrin. They discovered assurance but are unable to share it with others. If others want it, they must follow in the footsteps of the Masters, which is a long and winding road not for the faint of heart. The first step on that path is to research the required moral code and standards of conduct. The next step is to put these into action and make them the rule of life. They are the disciplines that allowed the truly enlightened ones of the past to awaken inner perception and make direct contact with The Universal Source of Truth. Only by following in their footsteps can anyone be assured of a path certain of reaching the desired goal. The Kolbrin incorporates a body of enlightened teachings that are a treasure of the centuries, a light on the path of Truth, and as relevant to the world today as they were in the past. The majority of what is presented here was actually salvaged from a pile of discarded manuscripts that had been partially burned and weathered. Some of the manuscripts were transcribed onto thin metal plates at some point and became known as 'The Bronzebook of Britain.' Manuscripts that were traditionally thought to have been copied from salvaged manuscripts that were not transcribed on metal plates and formed a work known as 'The Coelbook' are included. During the second and third decades of the twentieth century, these books were in the hands of a religious group in England that was never very powerful because membership requirements were too stringent. The Kolbrin appears to have been on the verge of extinction throughout history, but it has survived thanks to a few people who had no idea what it was all about, who were neither intellectual nor wealthy, and for whom the practicalities of life took precedence. Originally, there were twenty-one books, which were said to be twelve books of Britain, eight books of Egypt, and one of the Trojans, but their names are uncertain. Only a portion of these books remain, and it appears that much of the historical content has been removed.The significance of what is presented here lies in what is projected from the past into the present lamentable spiritual vacuum; in the assistance it can provide to ordinary men and women, not in what it offers to the literary world. These writings must be evaluated solely on this basis. Any knowledge's worth is determined by its utility in the present moment. We know from later books of the Kolbrin that its contents had to be kept secret for centuries because they could have been misunderstood or found unacceptable. Perhaps they will fare better now.The Masters can only record the results of their own searching in the Kolbrin. They discovered assurance but are unable to share it with others.

REESE'S BOOK CLUB PICK * NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER"A beautiful love letter to nature and the world around us."-Reese Witherspoon (Reese's Book Club September '24 Pick)THE PERFECT GIFT FOR NATURE LOVERS, BIRDERS, AND GARDENERS, WITH ORIGINAL COLOR ART THROUGHOUT * USA TODAY BESTSELLER * NATIONAL BESTSELLER  * INDIE NEXT PICKFrom the beloved New York Times opinion writer: a luminous book that traces the passing of seasons, both personal and natural. In The Comfort of Crows, Margaret Renkl presents a literary devotional: fifty-two chapters that follow the creatures and plants in her backyard over the course of a year. As we move through the seasons-from a crow spied on New Year's Day, its resourcefulness and sense of community setting a theme for the year, to the lingering bluebirds of December, revisiting the nest box they used in spring-what develops is a portrait of joy and grief: joy in the ongoing pleasures of the natural world, and grief over winters that end too soon and songbirds that grow fewer and fewer. Along the way, we also glimpse the changing rhythms of a human life. Grown children, unexpectedly home during the pandemic, prepare to depart once more. Birdsong and night-blooming flowers evoke generations past. The city and the country where Renkl raised her family transform a little more with each passing day. And the natural world, now in visible flux, requires every ounce of hope and commitment from the author-and from us. For, as Renkl writes, "radiant things are bursting forth in the darkest places, in the smallest nooks and deepest cracks of the hidden world."With fifty-two original color artworks by the author's brother, Billy Renkl, The Comfort of Crows is a lovely and deeply moving book from a cherished observer of the natural world.

Enoch "walked with God; then he was no more for God took him."The Book of Enoch is a pseudoepigraphal work (a work that claims to be by a biblical character). The Book of Enoch was not included in either the Hebrew or most Christian biblical canons, but could have been considered a sacred text by the sectarians. The original Aramaic version was lost until the Dead Sea fragments were discovered. This is a compilation of several separate works, most of which are apocalyptic. Its oldest portion is the "Apocalypse of Weeks," written shortly before the Maccabean uprising of 167 BC against the Seleucids. The Ethiopic Book of Enoch is called a "pseudepigraphical work," meaning one that is not included in any canon of scripture, outside of even the Apocrypha. The only complete extant version is an Ethiopic translation of a previous Greek translation made in Palestine from the original Hebrew or Aramaic. The Book of the Watcher, tells the story of fallen angels from Gen 6:1-4 that took wives, created the Nephilim, and taught advanced technology to mankind, ultimately leading to the great flood and their destruction. The Parables of Similitude, is an apocalyptic book about the Son of Man and the Ancient of Days. These ancient prophecies of Jesus are directly in line with what we find in the Bible, and are remarkably similar to The Book of Revelation. The Book of the Courses of the Heavenly Luminaries is a detailed account of the stars and their functions. The Dream Visions is the prophecy of all human history, from the creation of mankind all the way to the end times and the final judgement. The past, present, and future are foretold in grand detail. The prophecy of weeks is similar to the prophecy structure in the book of Daniel. The Noah Fragments is the untold story of Noah from the Bible. We learn more about his mission to save all humanity and the struggles of his father Lamech and his grandfather Methuselah. Finally, included herein are all known fragments of The Book of Giants. Each work is independent, but all the works are bound by a common theme: the punishment of the wicked and the blessedness of the righteous.
