  The title of the book immediately captured my attention. I was eager to see what "His Perfection of Beauty" was all about. It is foremost a work designed to reach the multitude of women who suffer the consequences of not fully knowing their value and insurmountable worth in the Kingdom of God. However, some of the sage counsel and gold nuggets provided throughout the book are applicable to us all. Right from the start it is apparent that the author speaks from a place familiar to us all. It is a place of pain and brokenness, but not of futility. She offers hope, as prescribed by God to all who will listen. Crystal has provided a peek inside her mind if not her soul, as she writes with a transcendent passion revealing her innermost desire for the women of God to come and be made whole. Upon completing her project Crystal was diagnosed with cancer she went home soon thereafter, but even while ill she poured her heart and soul into this project. I highly recommend this book as it is a path to healing and ultimately a road to God. REV. MOISES FLORES Crystal Flores was a wife, mother, and minister of the Gospel. She spent 25 years of her life ministering to the brokenhearted, tirelessly exhorting, uplifting, and challenging those God had placed in her path to partake in the relational healing found in Jesus. This is her first and only book, as shortly upon completion she was called home to her eternal resting place. She is survived by her husband Moises and her two children Elizabeth and Moises.

  Osho

  "The new man will be a mystic, a poet, a scientist, all together. He will not look at life through old rotten divisions. He will be a mystic, because he will feel the presence of god. He will be a poet, because he will celebrate the presence of god. And he will be a scientist, because he will search into this presence through scientific methodology. When a man is all these three together, the man is whole."
  
  Osho, or Bhagwan has been described by the Sunday Times in London as one of the "1000 Makers of the 20th Century". American author Tom Robbins says he is "the most dangerous man since Jesus Christ", while the Sunday Mid-Day has selected Osho as one of ten people along with Gandhi, Nehru and Buddha who have changed the destiny of India. How can one human be dangerous and at the same time change-making? And if he is, then what could possibly be the impact of his presence?

  Creative Evolution

  Henri Bergson

  Henri Bergson’s highly influential book, ‘Creative Evolution’ (‘Evolution Creatrice’, 1907) established a theory of evolution - called ‘Creative Evolution Theory’ - which gained a considerable following in the first half of the 20th Century. It also helped the author to win the Nobel Prize in 1927 for his work investigating the origins of biological information and divergence in the evolutionary process.  
   
  In this work, Bergson seeks an alternative explanation as to how new forms of life emerge compared to those prevailing at the time. This included both the ‘mechanistic’ or deterministic explanations of biological science on the one hand, and on the other the ‘finalist’ or strictly teleological explanation of those who believed in the hand of a ‘Creator’ or God, coordinating life in a divine plan. 
   
  Creative Evolution proposes a third explanation in what Bergson calls élan vital’ or ‘vital impetus’, a force that infuses all matter and drives it forward into an ever-changing and infinite variety of living forms. This appears as a vital impetus that can also be related to humanity’s own creative life force. Bergson’s book builds on his ‘Theory of Time’ as set forth in works such as ‘Matter and Memory’ and ‘Time and Free Will’.  In these works, and in the present volume, Bergson sees continuous ‘duration’ as real time, as opposed to the way in which time is divided up into measured units by the ‘organising’ mind of science. 
   
  Life, as we really experience it, is subject to constant change and our tendency to explain evolutionary change by looking only at ‘ends’ achieved rather than the processes by which they emerge, divorces us from the life force itself.  
   
  Instead, Bergson feels we need to reengage with our instincts as well as with our intelligence in order to understand the evolutionary process, as both co-exist to some extent within us, all forms of life having a common origin in that instinctual, innate knowledge of simpler life forms. Though these may be unconscious or semi-conscious, they are, in Bergson’s view, much more in touch with the ever-changing nature of real time than the analytical and rational knowledge of our species 
   
  As he writes:  “Our thought, in its purely logical form, is incapable of presenting the true nature of life, the full meaning of the evolutionary movement. Created by life, in definite circumstances, to act on definite things, how can it embrace life, of which it is only an emanation or an aspect?”  
   
  It is to attempt an answer to this question that ‘Creative Evolution’ directs its attention.
