  This book bundle explores the rise, achievements, and mysteries of three great civilizations that thrived along the Pacific coast of South America: the Chimú Empire, the Moche Civilization, and the Nazca Civilization. These cultures, shaped by the harsh yet resource-rich coastal environment, developed remarkable engineering, artistic, and societal innovations that continue to captivate historians and archaeologists.   
  Discover the Chimú Empire, renowned for its massive adobe city of Chan Chan, intricate metalwork, and sophisticated irrigation systems that sustained a powerful kingdom before its conquest by the Incas. Learn how their administrative prowess and architectural marvels set the stage for later Andean civilizations.   
  Uncover the fascinating world of the Moche Civilization, master artisans and engineers whose elaborate pottery, grand temples, and intricate irrigation canals reveal a society deeply connected to both warfare and religious ceremonies. Their vivid artwork and imposing huacas (temples) provide glimpses into their rituals, rulers, and everyday life.   
  Delve into the enigmatic Nazca Civilization, famous for the colossal Nazca Lines—massive geoglyphs etched into the desert, whose purpose still sparks debate today. Explore their advanced textile production, innovative aqueduct systems, and the religious significance of their artistic and architectural achievements.   
  From towering pyramids to vast desert artworks, these coastal empires demonstrated extraordinary adaptability and ingenuity. This book is a must-read for history enthusiasts eager to uncover the secrets of these ancient masters of the shorelines.

  This audiobook is divided into units. While it provides different learning patterns and accommodates various needs, this audiobook focuses on helping you improve your ability to understand, speak, and memorise Russian.  
  In Unit 1 you will hear Russian decoded with each syllable spoken very slowly and clearly with repetition. Immediately before each sentence is spoken, you will hear the translation, so you will always understand what is being said. 
  Unit 2 focuses solely on increasing your listening ability, which will improve your abilities to engage in dialogue with a native Russian speaker. This chapter requires you to listen very carefully to nuances in the language. 
  By Unit 3 you will already notice progress in your abilities to speak and understand Russian. The spoken translation is followed by two repetitions in Russian at a completely natural speed. While you are learning to process naturally spoken Russian, Units 3 and 4 will help you memorise new vocabulary and full sentences. 
  In Unit 5 you can test yourself on how much you have learned. If you are having difficulties, we suggest you revisit the listening, speaking, or memorisation section of Units 1, 2 3 or 4, according to what you need more help with.

  Miracle Of Love Deluxe Edition -...

  Neem Karoli Baba, known to his followers as Maharaj-ji, was a mystic saint and devotee of Hanuman. Maharaj-ji’s teachings were simple and universal. He often said, “Sub Ek” — All is One. He taught us to “love everyone, serve everyone, remember God, and tell the truth.” Strongly connected to Hanuman, God in the form of a monkey, Maharaj-ji taught in a highly personalized, non-traditional way that reflected the deep devotion of the bhakti path of the heart. Known as the “Miracle Baba” throughout north India, he manifested many siddhis (powers), such as being in two places at once or putting devotees in samadhi (elevated state of God consciousness) at the touch of a finger. Here is the essence of his remarkable life and teachings. He is known outside India for being the spiritual master of a number of Americans who traveled to India in the '60s and '70s, including Ram Dass and Bhagavan Das, as well as musician Krishna Das. For many years Baba was closely associated with silent sadhu Baba Hari Dass. 
   
  Dr. Richard Alpert, a former Harvard professor was an icon of the hippie, LSD-fueled revolution of the '60s. After that, on a trip to India - like Clark Kent changing into Superman - he became the much-beloved spiritual teacher Baba Ram Das. His '70s iconic book, Be Here Now, turned on a generation to the deep, nonsectarian spirituality within us all. Krishna Das is an American vocalist known for performing Vedic devotional music known as kirtan. Bhagavan Das is an American yogi who lived for six years in India, Nepal, and Sri Lanka. He is a bhakti yogi, kirtan singer, spiritual teacher, and writer. Baba Hari Dass was initiated in the Vairagi Vaishnava order in 1942. Dass has practiced continual silence since 1952. This is the true story of each of the spiritual "Gang of four" and their master and deep inspiration Neem Karol Baba.
