Castle Richmond

Anthony Trollope

Summary

Castle Richmond is set in southwestern Ireland at beginning of the Irish famine. Castle Richmond is situated on the banks of the Blackwater River in County Cork. Trollope's work in Ireland from 1841 to 1859 had given him an extensive knowledge of the island, and Richard Mullen has written that all the principal strands of his life were formed in Ireland. The complicated plot features the competition of two Protestant cousins of English origin, Owen Fitzgerald and Herbert Fitzgerald, for the hand of Clara Desmond, the noble but impoverished daughter of the widowed Countess of Desmond, providing the novel's principal dramatic interest.

Red Flags: Don't Ignore Them -...

Hazel-Ann Pariag

The author’s deepest desire is to see the plans, craftiness and devices of Satan, our enemy, discerned and eradicated from marriages, especially among God’s people. This can only be achieved through total obedience to God. 
Obedience to Almighty God equals Hearing the voice of God equals Protecting yourself from deception. 
As Hazel-Ann Pariag says: I made up my mind some time ago that if, by sharing my story, I could help someone else avoid the mistakes I made in my desire to be married, then I must do so. This is the first part of that story. God, through His Holy Spirit, is forever trying to steer us away from danger and along His path of right living, but as is so often the case, we ignore the red flags - the signs, the prompts and warnings - signalling danger. Her prayer is that as you read, you will appreciate the importance of discernment and obedience to God.

Babaji - Gateway to the Light -...

Gertraud Reichel

Inspired by his dreams, a young Indian went searching for and found a sadhu "of perfect beauty" sitting in deep absorption, in a cave in the Himalayas. It was June, 1970 and the young sadhu soon revealed himself to be the incarnation of the legendary Babaji, a great saint of the Himalayas, famous in the nineteenth century, whose recent advent had been prophesised. In the years thereafter, Babaji lived and taught at the ashram in the north-Indian village of Haidakhan until, as he himself said, "he had fulfilled his task", and voluntarily left his body in February 1984.

This book is about marvellous, multifaceted everyday life in the presence of Babaji, both in Haidakhan and on tour, as experienced by visitors and devotees, and in particular by the author. Drawing from her many visits during the years 1979 - 1984, she intimately describes her own personal experiences with Babaji at his ashram and when she had the privilege to accompany him on tour through various parts of India.
