  What happens after death? Some say that we continue to live in a different form; while others say that death is the complete extinction of our existence. Since the beginning of human thought, we have asked ourselves three simple questions: Who am I? Where have I come from? Where am I going? 
  This book, based on the teachings of Yoga and Vedanta, seeks to answer these questions about death and life after death. The answer to death is Knowledge of the Self--realization of our true identity, our divine existence, our spiritual nature--and to not be afraid of the unknown. 
  Chapter 1: Is Death the End? by Swami Nikhilananda 
  Chapter 2: Fear of Death by Swami Adiswarananda 
  Chapter 3: Sufferings of Life by Swami Adiswarananda 
  "Life on earth is meant for our soul to journey on towards its freedom. The soul’s three basic desires are immortality, unrestricted awareness, and unbounded joy. These are attained only when the soul discovers its true identity, the all-embracing Self. In search of its identity, the soul changes bodies and places, and finally, knowing the limitations of all pleasures and realizing that everything finite is shadowed by death, it practices detachment and desirelessness and realizes its immortal Self. Immortality is the return of the prodigal son to his all-loving father. It is the return of the reflection of the sun to the sun. It is the river of individual consciousness meeting the infinite ocean of Pure Consciousness. It is the realization that we are like leaves of a tree and that our true identity is the tree. Immortality is our separative existence joining the infinite existence of absolute freedom... The journey to this final freedom is a solitary one; alone a person is born, alone he suffers, and alone he dies. By realizing his true Self, he becomes united with all beings and things and attains to final freedom. Only then comes the end of all sorrow, all fear, all anxiety."

  A Muslim American Slave - The...

  Omar Ibn Said

  Born to a wealthy family in West Africa around 1770, Omar Ibn Said was abducted and sold into slavery in the United States, where he came to the attention of a prominent North Carolina family after filling "the walls of his room with piteous petitions to be released, all written in the Arabic language," as one local newspaper reported. Ibn Said soon became a local celebrity, and in 1831 he was asked to write his life story, producing the only known surviving American slave narrative written in Arabic. 
   
   
   
  In A Muslim American Slave, Ala Alryyes offers both a definitive translation and an authoritative edition of this singularly important work, lending new insights into the early history of Islam in America and exploring the multiple, shifting interpretations of Ibn Said's narrative by the nineteenth-century missionaries, ethnographers, and intellectuals who championed it. 
   
   
   
  This edition presents the English translation of Ibn Said's Arabic narrative, augmented by Alryyes's comprehensive introduction, contextual essays and historical commentary by leading literary critics and scholars of Islam and the African diaspora and other writings by Omar Ibn Said. The result is an invaluable addition to our understanding of writings by enslaved Americans and a timely reminder that "Islam" and "America" are not mutually exclusive terms.

  This book, like the first of the series the Book of the Ancient World, was used in its original manuscript form by one of my history classes. It carries on the story of the way in which man has been learning how to live from the time of the Coming of the Greeks to the loss of Greek independence in 146 B.C.The spirit of a nation is expressed and its history is recorded in three ways: in its political history, in its literature and in its art. The aim of this book has been to use such parts of the political history of the Greeks, of their literature and of their art as seem to have been the outward and visible signs of the spirit that inspired them.This book is only intended as an introduction to the history of Greek civilization, and the difficulty of my task has been to decide on what to omit. Everyone will not agree with me as to what I have taken and what I have left, but my aim will have been accomplished, if the book should create a desire to know something more of the great heritage which has come to us from the Greeks.

  The Wisdom Years - Unleashing...

  PhD Zvi Lanir

  We are now experiencing one of the most significant revolutions in human life: the dramatic rise in life expectancy. This revolution does not imply, as most people usually think, that we've simply got more years of old age. Rather, it implies the formation of a new period in human life: the Age of Wisdom. This age is qualitatively different from the adulthood that precedes it and the old age that follows. People who are able to prepare themselves for this new age will be able to enjoy an active, wise and satisfying stage of life, which will enable them to delay their 'old age' to the very end of their life. 
    
  The Wisdom Years provides a practical, thought-provoking and life-changing read for both people embarking on retirement as well as younger people who would like to mindfully prepare themselves in advance. Derived from Dr Lanir's lifetime of work experience in identifying mindsets that are no longer helpful or relevant to current reality, it reveals how we can reframe our thought processes and mindset so that we can live life based on our 'functional age' rather than our 'chronological age'. 
    
  The result is a book that carries a unique and inspiring message: life in the wisdom years is to be enjoyed and planned for as a new and uplifting journey of personal evolution.
