Goodbye Russia - Rachmaninoff in...

Fiona Maddocks

In 1940, Sergei Rachmaninoff, living in exile in America, broke his creative silence and composed a swan song to his Russian homeland—his iconic "Symphonic Dances." What happened in those final haunted years and how did he come to write his farewell masterpiece? 
 
 
 
Rachmaninoff left Petrograd (now St. Petersburg) in 1917 during the throes of the Russian Revolution. He was forty-four years old, at the peak of his powers as composer-conductor-performer, moving in elite Tsarist circles, as well as running the family estate, his refuge and solace. Reeling from the trauma of a life in upheaval, he wrote almost no music and quickly had to reinvent himself as a fêted virtuoso pianist, building up untold wealth and meeting the stars. 
 
 
 
Using a wide range of sources, including important newly translated texts, Fiona Maddocks's book conjures impressions of this enigmatic figure, his friends, and the world he encountered. It explores his life as an emigré artist and how he clung to an Old Russia which no longer existed. That forging of past and present meets in his Symphonic Dances (1940), his last composition, written on Long Island shortly before his death in Beverly Hills, surrounded by a close-knit circle of exiles. Goodbye Russia is a moving and prismatic look at Rachmaninoff and his iconic final work.

The Secret of Death and Way to...

Swami Nikhilananda, Swami...

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."
