DIVINATION "Sarvananda Bluestone shows us, with a refreshing wisdom, how to let nature and the raw material of our experience be our projecting screen for the wisdom faculty of the soul. How to Read Signs and Omens in Everyday Life should be required reading for Divination 101." --Stephen Larsen, author of A Fire in the Mind: The Life of Joseph Campbell "Sarvananda Bluestone is a rare combination: a gifted psychic who is also a scholar and a scholar whose clear and lively writing style is accessible to all. In How to Read Signs and Omens in Everyday Life, Dr. Bluestone offers a smorgasbord of fun, easy, and magical games with which anyone can tap in to the latent sixth sense that is our birthright as humans." --Helen Weaver, author of The Daisy Sutra: Conversations with My Dog and editor of The Larousse Encyclopedia of Astrology Since the beginning of time, diviners and seers have been finding signs and omens in the world around them--in pools of water, tea leaves, delicate patterns of cracked animal bones, and the ripples of clouds in the sky. Because these observers have been able to connect to a deeper level of awareness, they have come to sense hidden truths in powerful and mysterious ways. In modern times we call those who possess these abilities "psychic," but native cultures accepted that each of us has an innate sixth sense and can learn how to read the forces of nature. In this fascinating and enlightening guide, historian and psychic Sarvananda Bluestone shows us how our innate knowledge can be rediscovered, allowing us to become far more in tune with our surroundings than we ever dreamed possible. He teaches us to use everyday objects and the wonders of nature as magical tools that offer a window into the future--and ourselves. Filled with more than seventy-five practical exercises, How to Read Signs and Omens in Everyday Life demonstrates how the discovery of the power within ourselves requires nothing more than a little guidance and a willingness to see. SARVANANDA BLUESTONE, Ph.D., received his doctorate in history from the University of Wisconsin. After years of teaching, he left academia behind for an ashram in India and then a spiritual community in Oregon. He now lives and works in New York.

Imagine how it feels to have the love essence of every particle in the universe dancing with delight to re-join the love essences within your being. This is true desire, a vibration felt in and through all things and experienced as a unifying force. The practice of sacred sexuality is a celebration of true desire; it deepens your connection to the Spirit of love and awakens your body to become as passionate and alive as God originally intended."...an excellent overview of the tantric sexual practices...the first book in 20 years that I could whole-heartedly recommend. It should be on every tantric bookshelf." --David A. Ramsdale, author Sexual Energy Ecstasy

Good health depends on the free flow of life-force energy, chi, throughout the entire body. The accumulation of tensions in the muscles and tendons as well as the stagnation of negative energy can lead to blockages in the body's energy channels, resulting in pain, low energy or illness. In this full-color illustrated guide, Master Mantak Chia and William Wei detail massage techniques for unblocking chi, releasing tight tendons and muscles, and alleviating back and joint pain. The authors explore the 10 Thai energy meridians known as Sen Sib, the 12 muscle-tendon meridians of Chinese acupuncture, and the most commonly strained muscles and tendons of the spine, neck and pelvis. They explain how to treat specific ailments, such as headache, stiff shoulder or lumbar pain, with the traditional Thai massage technique known as Tok Sen, which uses a wooden hammer to send vibrational energy deep into the fascia and muscles along the Sen Sib meridians. This method is particularly effective for joint pain, because the vibrations can reach more deeply and accurately within the body's structure than a massage therapist's fingers. The authors, also, explain Meridian Detox Therapy, which includes cupping, skin massage and Gua Sha - the scraping of different parts of the body to clear blood stagnation, promote metabolism and treat acute illness. The final book in the Chi Nei Tsang series, CHI NEI CHING offers advanced massage techniques to work with the energy meridians for optimum health. · Explains the hammering massage technique of Tok Sen, which sends vibrational energy deep into the fascia and muscles · Details how to use the 10 Thai energy meridians known as Sen Sib and the 12 muscle-tendon meridians of Chinese acupuncture in massage · Explains Meridian Detox Therapy and Gua Sha, which clears blood stagnation, promotes metabolism and can prevent and treat acute illness
