The Sacred Way

Stephen L. Robertson

The Sacred Way is not a map. It is not a method. It is a transmission. 
  
In this companion to The Sacred Choice, Stephen L. Robertson offers a luminous reflection for the soul ready to embody what it has already remembered. Drawing from mystical insight, spiritual awakening, and the quiet wisdom of stillness, The Sacred Way invites readers beyond the threshold of realization—into a life of integration, gentleness, and divine simplicity. 
  
This masterwork does not teach—it mirrors. Through poetic clarity and sacred resonance, it unveils the quiet radiance of what happens after the spark: when ego dissolves, when becoming ends, and when the flame no longer flickers but simply burns. 
  
You are not searching anymore. 
You are becoming the field. 
  
This is not the beginning of your journey. 
This is the return.

Anglophobia - The Unrecognised...

Harry Richardson, Frank Salter

“The white race is the biggest murderer, rapist, pillager, and thief of the modern world.” So said journalist Nikole Hannah-Jones. 
Had she said this about any other race, it is unlikely that she would ever have found employment with a mainstream media outlet. Yet not only was Nikole Hannah-Jones hired by The New York Times; she received the coveted Pulitzer Prize for journalism for the 1619 project which also defames white people. 
Why is it that such hateful rhetoric is no barrier to employment at The New York Times, whilst criticism of any other racial group would have you fired in a New York minute? Why is Critical Race Theory and its defamation of white people and their societies seeping into every corner of education, the media, and the corporate world? 
These and other questions need answers because Western civilisation in Australia and elsewhere is facing an existential threat. Anglophobia The Unrecognised Hatred analyses and articulates the root causes of this pervasive anti-white hatred. 
The book is a systematic rejection of the hypocritical notion that racism is acceptable – so long as it is only directed at white men, women and children.

Farsi Made Easy - Beginner -...

Lingo Wave

We broke our new series on learning Farsi down into different learning stages. Start with the "Lower Beginner" books followed by the "Beginner" and "Upper Beginner" books. Next, progress to the "Intermediate" series, then test and reinforce your knowledge with the "Conversations" series.
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 Farsi.
In Unit 1 you will hear Farsi 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 Farsi 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 Farsi. The spoken translation is followed by two repetitions in Farsi at a completely natural speed. While you are learning to process naturally spoken Farsi, 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.
Topics covered in this book:
1. Asking about family
2. Asking about relationship status
3. Expressing frequency
