Synopsis

In "The Storm: An Essay," Daniel Defoe masterfully captures the awe-inspiring and terrifying power of nature through vivid prose and meticulous detail. Written in the early 18th century, Defoe employs an observational style that blends personal narrative with scientific inquiry as he reflects on the effects of a particularly violent storm that struck the British coast. The essay delves into the natural phenomena associated with storms, employing a unique combination of poetic imagery and empirical observation, thereby situating the work within the burgeoning field of meteorology while acknowledging the sublime terror of nature. Daniel Defoe, best known for his groundbreaking novel "Robinson Crusoe," was a keen observer of his times and an early explorer of narrative form. His extensive travels and experiences during a period marked by religious and political turmoil informed his understanding of both nature and humanity. This essay emerges from his engagement with contemporary scientific thought and reflects his capacity to synthesize observation and personal reflection, representing a pivotal moment in the evolution of non-fiction writing. "The Storm" is highly recommended for readers interested in the intersections of literature, science, and philosophy. Defoe's articulate reflections will not only expand your understanding of meteorological phenomena but also engage you with the profound ways in which human beings relate to the natural world. This work stands as a testament to the enduring power of literature to illuminate the complexities of existence.

    The Teaching of the Heart has been given to Mankind as a Great Revelation of the Cosmic Light Forces standing guard over not only the planet Earth, but the entire Solar System too. The Messengers of Distant Worlds and unknown star systems, the Masers of Wisdom have Revealed the secret Treasures of Shambhala to you that store secret scrolls since time immemorial. And when the Dates are imminent, Mankind is endowed with the wise knowledge that Their chosen Messenger begins to spread around the world, putting them into the form of the Teachings of Light. Previous Doctrines focused mostly on the mental body — the human mind. But at the junction of two epochs, a Terrible Hour came for the Earth, the position of the heavenly bodies changed, energies of unprecedented Strength are directed towards our planet. The most powerful streams of Fire are pouring out of the unknown depths of the Universe, threatening to incinerate all life on our long–suffering earth. And only a loving human Heart, which keeps a spark of Divine Light and performs Service of the Forces of Good, can accept and assimilate those healing currents. 
    	The Call of the Heart is a book that opens like a Royal Gateway, inviting you to step into other spheres where Just Cosmic Laws rule. Those who have managed to ascend the steps of Transfiguration and become truly Godlike already live in this world! The currents of Immortality are embedded in each line of the Teaching of the Heart, in every book, all of which are united by an invisible Fiery thread. Nevertheless, your kind hearts, like priceless diamonds, will begin to acquire new Luminous facets after reading and listening to these books, and — what is the most important — after applying the Advices given by the Greatest Masters of Mankind. 
    	Good luck on the Way of the Heart! And blessed be those who hear the Call of the Heart of the Creator!

    In August, 1947, Mary Brock boarded a train in Toronto. She was headed for the wilds of Northwestern Ontario and a teaching job at an Indian Residential School. Her family was horrified.At the end of her first day of teaching, Mary was horrified too. This was not the exciting adventure she had imagined. But Mary wasn't one to give up, and buoyed by her ideals and her pragmatism, she kept showing up.She lasted the academic year but when she boarded the train for home, she knew she had failed in every way that mattered. The ideals she had come with had shattered on her classroom floor, and a big piece of her heart, lay buried behind a small log cabin in the woods.Sixty years later, two unexpected gifts forced Mary to take a second look back and a more hopeful look forward. Maybe her ideals weren't so naive after all.
