The Scarf Tradition explores the surprisingly rich history of scarves, revealing how this seemingly simple accessory has played diverse roles across cultures and religions. From ancient civilizations to modern fashion, the book unveils the scarf's evolution, highlighting its significance as a symbol of status, religious piety, and practical survival. Intriguingly, scarves were not merely decorative; they often denoted social standing and even offered protection from harsh climates. This book examines the scarf's journey through time, starting with its earliest uses in ancient societies and tracing its adaptation across various cultures.

 
Major chapters delve into the scarf's use in ancient Egypt as a symbol of status, its religious significance in Eastern religions, and its practical applications among nomadic peoples. By examining archaeological finds, historical texts, and fashion archives, The Scarf Tradition provides a comprehensive understanding of the scarf's enduring appeal and its continued relevance in contemporary society.

    Our lord repeatedly instructed us: "Be not deceived". That is an imperative: A command, not simply a suggestion. But how? What are the tools to prevent our being deceived or misled? The context of a passage is always a primary consideration in the search for understanding of a passage of scripture. It is often cited, "A verse out of context is a pretext". And, indeed, one must always maintain an awareness of both who is doing the speaking and the audience being addressed. However, this foundational emphasis can also be a restrictive blindfold to some of a passage's deeper (and broader) implications.

    The cautionary tale of Ajamila the careless brahmin who had forgotten his duty but was ultimately redeemed by his love for his young son Narayana is a powerful story about the looming, all-consuming, mystery of death, birth and the ultimate glory of being lifted from the wheel of repeated birth and death (samsara) to go back forever to the original source of all. For those who aspire for liberation, there is nothing more powerful than the chanting of the Lord's name. If this can rescue Ajamila, the Srimad Bhagavata tells us, what to say of the results obtained by chanting the name of Hari with faith and devotion. 
     
    Ajamila is the main character of a story in canto six of the sacred Bhagavata Purana. In Hinduism, the story of Ajamila is used to illustrate that by uttering God’s divine name, there is hope for even the most sinful to be redeemed from their propensity to commit sin. 
     
    A glorious. ancient and inspirational audiobook adventure retold in stunning detail.

    What if our memories are like shells we gather on a beach? According to pastor and spiritual director Casey Tygrett, "We—and all those who have come before us—pick up the experience and we sense it: we feel its edges, notice its color, we smell the distinctive character (for shells it is the sickly seafood salt smell) of the experience, and we try to make sense of what it is. Is it beautiful? How would you describe the color—the tones, the shades, wrapped around the ridges and swirls? Has it been damaged? Does the hard edge scrape our hand, leaving a blemish or a mark?" How we hold and carry these memories—good and bad—is a part of what forms us spiritually. In this way we have a common bond with the people of Scripture who also had a sensory life, gathering shells and trying to make sense of them. Previously titled As I Recall, Casey Tygrett's writing in The Practice of Remembering explores the power of memory and offers biblical texts and practices to guide us in bringing our memories to God for spiritual transformation.
